And now I'm reading stories that President Biden is discussing his polling numbers and his staff is discussing the polling numbers and they don't believe in polls and they're mad because there's emphasis on the age issue. | |
| Stop it! | ||
| Stop it! | ||
| Your poll numbers are not good and you're old. | ||
| Get over it. | ||
| I hate to say that. | ||
| Why don't you tear his face off? | ||
| And talk about, and you've already fought, no one would know it, but you keep it a secret. | ||
| You fought raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| It's a really good idea. | ||
| You know why it's a really good idea? | ||
| Because it doesn't cost jobs. | ||
| They have economists that have looked at this every way you can. | ||
| And When you raise the minimum wage and say, well, only X people get the minimum wage. | ||
| Yes, but there's X million people that get 20% above the minimum wage. | ||
| And if you raise it, it'll go up. | ||
| No, that's not a new idea, James. | ||
| That's old democratic populism. | ||
| Mark Penn is not going to like that. | ||
| Well, who gives a **** what Mark Penn likes or doesn't like? | ||
| Try it on a poll. | ||
| Try it on a poll. | ||
| And I'm going to tell you something else. | ||
| You know, that Mark Penn is not going to like, or we got to be, we got to understand these people, James. | ||
| We got to, we got to balance, you know. | ||
| Oh, no, no, you don't. | ||
| So next year, the Trump tax cuts are coming to be renewed because they weren't 10 year budget projections or some bull****. | ||
| It's just all bull**** they don't even tell you about. | ||
| We're not going to do it on incomes over $40,000 a year. | ||
| And we're going to take that money and we're going to put it into something that helps young people. | ||
| Because the generational thievery that has occurred in this country is criminality of the first order. | ||
| And we keep wondering why these young people aren't coming home to the Democrats. | ||
| Why blacks are not coming home to the Democrats? | ||
| Because democratic messaging is full of s**t. That's why. | ||
| And talk about cost of living. | ||
| And we're going to help deal with this. | ||
| And don't talk about f**king Gaza and student loans. | ||
| That's so out. | ||
| The Harvard, that guy Della Volpe is pretty good. | ||
| Give him 15 issues. | ||
| You know what the number 14 and 15 issue were total? | ||
| Student debt in Gaza. | ||
| I forgot which order it's in. | ||
| And why are we Forgiving student loans for people that go to Harvard, which, according to Scott Galloway, quite accurately, is nothing but a hedge fund that has classrooms. | ||
| Well, they got a $52 billion f***ing surplus. | ||
| Why are taxpayers going to bail these people out? | ||
| Why don't you come out for a proposal to tax every university endowment over $5 billion and use that money to give their former students relief? | ||
| Or that Harvard Board of Overseers or whatever the **** they call it. | ||
| Harvard Corporation or whatever, I don't like that. | ||
| And too many serious people. | ||
| And my niece, you know, came home from Princeton and all the young people there are mad about Gaza and **** and all of that crap you hear on TV and all that crap you read in the newspaper. | ||
| So I'm not gonna, we all know where we are. | ||
| We all know the position we're in. | ||
| We all know what the polls say. | ||
| We all know how old President Biden is. | ||
| Quit ****ing arguing what's right in front of your face and start laying something out there. | ||
| This is a time for choosing. | ||
| This is a time where, not just us, because we know the stakes, this is a time to see if it's not fair to criticize him for having a flag in his yard, or Alito went on a fishing trip because there was an extra spot on the G5, or we don't like the minimum wage because it's not a new idea. | ||
| We don't like taxing the rich because it'll hurt their feelings and they won't feel respected and they won't go out and leverage middle interest rates or whatever these people do. | ||
| And Harvard is going to feel bad if you have anything to do with the endowment. | ||
| OK, let's get over all of this. | ||
| Let's get over all these silly ass irrelevant elites worrying about it. | ||
| And let's go between now and election day and just kick ass. | ||
| I'm serious. | ||
| Come up with simple, understandable, popular, yes, proposals that people can understand where there's a distinction. | ||
| Ask about syphilis. | ||
| It's a relevant issue. | ||
| Don't spin the polls. | ||
| Change the polls. | ||
| Who cares what the poll is? | ||
| What I'm trying to do is, it's like going to manager of a baseball game in the fifth inning, where you know you're down five to three. | ||
| Yeah, I know I'm down. | ||
| I'm trying to get six runs before then stop them from getting another one. | ||
| That's what normal people do. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies. | ||

Because we're going medieval on these people. | |
| President Trump got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||
| I know you don't like hearing that. | ||
| I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big lie? | ||

War Room. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Tuesday, 28 May, Year of the Lord 2024. | ||
| The Democrats in a total complete meltdown to kick off a historic week. | ||
| They've got one error in the quiver. | ||
| No, James Carville, it's not syphilis. | ||
| What? | ||
| Where did that come from, bro? | ||
| No, it's not syphilis as a major campaign issue. | ||
| It is lawfare. | ||
| The only error they've got left is to try to imprison President Trump. | ||
| Okay, we got the polling with Rasmussen. | ||
| We're going to go to Texas. | ||
| Huge day today on the runoff elections. | ||
| We're going to go to Geneva. | ||
| Good news, World Health Organization, pandemic treaty not happening, at least now. | ||
| We are packed wall-to-wall here in the War Room. | ||
| Let's start with Julie Kelly. | ||
| Julie, you kind of started this all off, this firestorm. | ||
| 10 o'clock on Friday night, Jack Smith filed and included not just exhibits from President Trump, but exhibits with yours truly, Stephen K. Bannon, in the smiling visage of Mike Davis. | ||
| As we were saying mean things about Biden and the FBI and DOJ, and he was whining and crying and wanted to stop it. | ||
| President Trump just came back. | ||
| Tell us, where do we stand on the gag order? | ||
| They're trying to shut down President Trump in every way possible. | ||
| Put him in prison this week, gagging this week. | ||
| Where are we? | ||
| So this late night, Friday night, holiday weekend motion to modify Donald Trump's release conditions in the Southern Florida case, this is a direct result, Steve, of my Not my discovery, but what I posted on Tuesday when those motions were filed, it disclosed that in the operation order for the Mar-a-Lago raid, the government included use of lethal force guidance in that order. | ||
| So, and of course, I went on your show right away after those motions were posted, and I was one who broke the news, and this has caused chaos everywhere, including in my own In my own life for the past week, who would have thought that? | ||
| But at any rate, this is a direct result of that reporting. | ||
| Jeff Smith using the legal process to refute what certainly could have been a potentially dangerous situation for the former president and his family. | ||
| We saw Tuesday night, FBI Director Christopher Wray came out with a rare statement downplaying what I had reported and what was included in those motions. | ||
| Merrick Garland addressed it the next day. | ||
| So this is all spin, Steve. | ||
| This has nothing to do with respectfully using the legal and court process to advance this case in the classified documents case in Southern Florida. | ||
| This is a coordinated spin because it has been so damaging To this case, to the DOJ, to the FBI, Jack Smith. | ||
| And so this was his asking for Judge Cannon, of course you won't, Judge Cannon to prohibit Trump from making false and inflammatory public statements about law enforcement involved in the case. | ||
| Not law enforcement involved in the raid, because of course all those names are automatically redacted in the filing. | ||
| We want to prohibit, ban him from saying anything about law enforcement. | ||
| What does that mean? | ||
| He can't say anything about Jack Smith? | ||
| We know that Jack Smith, in his gag order, proposed gag order in Washington, asked Judge Chutkan to prohibit Donald Trump from saying mean things about Jack Smith. | ||
| And so this was a very broad order. | ||
| Has nothing to do with protecting law enforcement. | ||
| Has to do with protecting Jack Smith and the DOJ and FBI's hide. | ||
| And we are learning more about this dirty, unprecedented, and potentially dangerous raid at Mar-a-Lago in August of 2022. | ||
| President Trump responded, right? | ||
| They put in a counter. | ||
| What's the takeaway from that? | ||
| I think you just posted it. | ||
| Yes, so Donald Trump's lawyers filed a motion last night, Monday night, and not only asked, obviously, for Judge Cannon not to grant Jess Smith's motion, but also to hold the special counsel's team in contempt because they did not allow for meaningful conferral on a proposed motion, and this is a local rule in Florida courts. | ||
| And I will tell you, Judge Cannon is such a stickler for the rules. | ||
| I have watched her upgrade both the government and defense team for not properly formatting their briefs. | ||
| She wants them double-spaced. | ||
| She wants them in a certain count, in a certain font. | ||
| So she is a real stickler for the rules, and especially the idea of each side conferring with the other before they file a motion. | ||
| Well, what came out in Donald Trump's reply motion last night is that, of course, they waited until Friday night around 530 before a holiday weekend. | ||
| Keep in mind, one of the attorneys in the Florida documents case for Donald Trump is also one of his attorneys in the Manhattan case. | ||
| So as soon as Jay Bratt, who I call the degenerate little midget who has been running the show from the very beginning, as soon as they emailed Donald Trump's team, and they came back and said, look, you know, we've got this going on right now. | ||
| It's a holiday weekend. | ||
| Can we discuss this on Monday? | ||
| Went back and forth for a couple of hours. | ||
| Jay Bratt, Justice League prosecutor said, no, this is too urgent. | ||
| We're filing this motion anyway. | ||
| And I think it hit the docket around nine o'clock on Friday night. | ||
| So this will not be taken well by Judge Kannon, not just the process that was violated, but also the allegations. | ||
| Donald Trump, either your, you know, his postings about an assassination attempt, locked and loaded, or any other media coverage about a potential assassination, that threatens the lives of law enforcement. | ||
| She has already called Jack Smith out for making those big, broad allegations. | ||
| The media is after Alito and Thomas to recuse themselves on immunity in the Fisher case. | ||
| They're also, all weekend, they're saying she's incompetent, she's got to go, I think the 11th Circuit's got to remove her. | ||
| Can you give us a minute on that before you bounce? | ||
| I do, and I've got a piece up on my subject declassified with Julie Kelly that speaks specifically to why they're going after Justice Alito because of the 1512 C2 ruling that's pending and also the immunity question that's pending. | ||
| In both oral arguments, he indicated that he was going to vote against the government. | ||
| So that's what this is about. | ||
| And so moving forward now, I'm expecting something from Judge Cannon in the next few days, how she will respond to this. | ||
| If she, this is why Jack Smith is also dumb. | ||
| Open can of worms, because there is a lot of documentation, Steve, about this raid, including grand jury testimony by Secret Service agents and FBI. | ||
| She ordered that sealed pending additional litigation, which is exactly what Jack Smith just opened the door for. | ||
| If she holds an evidentiary hearing, if she permits the unsealing of other records related to this raid, we are going to find out More dirty details and the people who defended this, especially on our side, former federal prosecutors, former FBI agents who said this is standard operating procedure, they are going to eat those words because there's a lot more to learn about this raid. | ||
| Julie, where do people get you? | ||
| Substack all of it. | ||
| It's powerful and good. | ||
| She's on fire. | ||
| Julie Kelly, thank you so much for joining us to kick off a historic week. | ||
| We're going to Manhattan. | ||
| We got Mike Davis. | ||
| We got Rasmussen. | ||
| We're going to Texas. | ||
| Strap in. | ||
| Kelly too. | ||

|
That sentence inspired hundreds of thousands of Chinese Americans. | |
| That's why we stand up. | ||
| You know, Chinese, most of us, very quiet, like, you know, we used to be chicken, but now we stand up. | ||
| We became very loud. | ||
| Loud. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because we have a strong sense of crisis, of losing this country and freedom. | ||
| You know, we run from communist country, China. | ||
| We don't want Americans to become communists. | ||
| Amen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's why. | |
| Trump sacrificed a lot to save our country. | ||
| We appreciate him. | ||
| We don't personally idolize him. | ||
| No. | ||
| Because people say, oh, you idolize him. | ||
| No, we run from a communist country where people idolize their dictators. | ||
| Trump is a common sense president. | ||
| He tried to save our country and we support him because he loves this country. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Let me have it. | ||
| Incredible. | ||
| Courageous, contagious. | ||
| That's the best 30-second spot. | ||
| President Trump's team just cut that right there. | ||
| That's right from the heart. | ||
| They don't idolize him, they respect him. | ||
| He's their guy. | ||
| And they're seeing, they've come from communist regimes, they're seeing exactly what's happening in Manhattan, this show trial. | ||
| Which closing arguments are right now. | ||
| Ben Berkow, there's going to be a press conference by Radical Democrats in a minute. | ||
| Yeah, that's what we're hearing. | ||
| We're hearing Harry Dunn and Robert De Niro. | ||
| Actually, I'm on scene right now, right in front of me. | ||
| You're going to have a Democrat press conference here in just a few minutes, and then followed by President Trump's team is going to be out here as well. | ||
| So it's going to be somewhat of a... It'll be interesting. | ||
| It'll be interesting. | ||
| I'll keep it PG. | ||
| Good. | ||
| We're going to give as good as we get. | ||
| Okay, give us a heads up when De Niro, particularly De Niro, the hate-filled Robert De Niro, comes to the sticks. | ||
| Ben Berkman, we'll come right back to you. | ||
| Mike Davis, Mike Davis, we kicked up a little news on Friday night about this Jack Smith thing. | ||
| He included an exhibit from the war room of my interview with you. | ||
| Lay out our position on this, Mike, because we're not going to back down on this one inch, and Jack Smith can shove it, right? | ||
| Tell us, walk us through what our position is here. | ||
| So Jack Smith and his little midget henchman, Jay Bratt, filed a pleading on Friday, essentially | ||
| asking for Judge Eileen Cannon to put this unconstitutional gag order on President Trump | ||
| because President Trump criticized the protocol that President Biden and Attorney General | ||
| Merrick Garland used to run their unprecedented raid against him in Mar-a-Lago, unlawful raid | ||
| against him for presidential records. | ||
| President Trump is allowed to have under the Presidential Records Act, and there's no criminal | ||
| component to the Presidential Records Act. | ||
| If there's a dispute between the Justice Department and the librarians at the National Archives | ||
| and the former president, that's handled through mediation and negotiation, and at best, civil | ||
| litigation. | ||
| It's not handled through an unprecedented, unnecessary, and unlawful raid on the office | ||
| of former president. | ||
| And with this FBI raid, it's very clear that President Biden, through Jonathan Suh, his | ||
| deputy White House counsel, orchestrated this raid. | ||
| Garland personally signed off on it, and they all knew that this FBI raid was an armed raid with shoot-to-kill orders, if necessary. | ||
| So, it is very reckless what they did with this unlawful raid on President Trump, and The people who are complaining that we're complaining about that, I think that they should ask themselves, would it be acceptable if President Trump and the Trump 47 Justice Department sent an armed raid on President Biden with shoot to kill orders? | ||
| What would their response be? | ||
| Yeah, you know, they say this is standard operating procedure, but Vivi Frye and Michael Barnes over the weekend had a great podcast. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| This is not close to being standard operating procedures. | ||
| And Judge Cannon is going to call him out for that. | ||
| I mean, he's opening a can of worms. | ||
| This is going to be a debacle for Smith. | ||
| This entire thing in South Florida is a joke. | ||
| as is Jack Smith's all. Talk to me about the pressure on on a Cannon, Alito, Thomas. | ||
| I mean the left which has revered the judiciary when it worked for them. Now that you have | ||
| actual conservatives with stones that will stand up to this, all they want to do is throw | ||
| people off the court, throw people off the Supreme Court. | ||
| They want to remove federal judges. Your thoughts, sir? | ||
| Yeah, isn't it amazing that the same Democrats who say that it's a threat if President Trump | ||
| merely raises the fact that Judge Juan Marchand's adult daughter, Lauren Marchand, is raising | ||
| millions of dollars off of her father's prosecution of President Trump, criminal trial over which | ||
| he's presiding, requiring Judge Marchand's recusal under New York statute, | ||
| Somehow that's a threat. | ||
| If we point out that any of these prosecutors or any of these law enforcement agents are not doing their job properly, they may have a political bias, whatever the issue is, if Trump or his allies raise this, that's somehow a violent threat. | ||
| But the Democrats, Joe Biden, his Justice Department, his White House press secretary, who say that these are somehow protected by the First Amendment, they can run these illegal obstruction of justice campaigns outside of the homes of Supreme Court justices, while a case is pending, while the Dobbs case is pending, that forces these justices and their families to go to safe houses. | ||
| They encouraged these illegal obstruction of justice campaigns against The Supreme Court justices from the Biden White House, Press Secretary and the Biden Justice Department, Merrick Garland, even after the 1 a.m. | ||
| assassination attempt against Justice Kavanaugh, his wife, Ashley, and their two teenage daughters, these same Democrats have been harassing and doxing and trashing Judge Eileen Cannon constantly, constantly for her decisions and threatening her and threatening to, you know, essentially to get a mandamus order from the 11th Circuit, from the From the Trump-deranged 11th Circuit. | ||
| I mean, it's just unbelievable that if you have legitimate criticisms about a political bias, including ethical issues, including recusal issues, on the Democrat side, it's a threat by the Republicans. | ||
| But if you actually run illegal doxing, obstruction of justice campaigns outside of the Supreme Court justices' homes or threaten judges, that's not a threat, according to these Democrats. | ||
| Talk to me about New York, because by Friday night, unless there's a hero or two on this jury, all they're going to do over the weekend, Politico's talking about convicted felon, convicted felon, convicted felon. | ||
| I'm going to have Rasmussen on here in a minute. | ||
| The thing's over right now for Biden. | ||
| He's done. | ||
| They're hanging everything on lawfare, and they're holding everything on Mershawn in this jury in Manhattan. | ||
| Your thoughts, Mike Davis? | ||
| This corrupt, partisan Judge Mershon, Judge Juan Mershon, will certainly deliver for Joe Biden. | ||
| Joe Biden's counting on it. | ||
| Joe Biden's planning a campaign rally in front of the New York courthouse after the verdict. | ||
| They know that this is not gonna go well for Trump because this is a partisan, corrupt, | ||
| rigged process in New York. | ||
| You have a partisan, corrupt judge, Juan Machon, who donated to Biden, | ||
| donated to another anti-Trump cause, got reprimanded, we just learned several months ago about those donations. | ||
| That didn't deter him. | ||
| He has a daughter, Lauren Machon, who's raising millions of dollars | ||
| off of this unprecedented criminal trial over which her father's recusing. | ||
| She gets a percentage of that. | ||
| So she has a financial stake in this criminal prosecution. | ||
| That requires Judge Machon's recusal under New York statute. | ||
| That's not just me saying that. | ||
| A former federal Clinton judge from New York City said that on Kaitlin Collins' show on April 5th on CNN, | ||
| how did Judge Machon respond? | ||
| He retaliated against Trump with his illegal unconstitutional gag order. | ||
| You have these partisan prosecutors who campaigned on getting Trump, like George Soros funded Manhattan D.A. | ||
| Alvin Bragg. | ||
| You had Matthew Colangelo deployed from the Biden Justice Department, the number three office of a senior political appointee, to resurrect this zombie case passed over by the prior Manhattan D.A., the Manhattan U.S. | ||
| Attorney, the Federal Election Commission, and even Bragg himself, who campaigned on getting Trump. | ||
| Even Bragg thought this case is ridiculous. | ||
| Their star witnesses are a porn star, Stormy Daniels, who's changed her story way too many times. | ||
| She's making money off of her pinned porn site on Twitter. | ||
| You have Michael Cohen, the serial perjurer, convicted felon, who testified. | ||
| That he hates Trump, he's trying to get Trump, he's raising money on TikTok, and he extorted Trump $60,000. | ||
| You have this jury pool that voted 87% for Joe Biden, and they further rigged this. | ||
| Mershawn, Colangelo, and Brett further rigged it where they bounced people from the jury pool who follow Trump on social media, the three people who follow Trump on Truth in Manhattan, and they kept the Biden people. | ||
| This is a rigged Partisan, corrupt process. | ||
| And this will get overturned on appeal, no doubts. | ||
| But Joe Biden wants this campaign victory. | ||
| He wants to be able to say that Trump is a convicted felon. | ||
| He's got to. | ||
| Convicted felon. | ||
| They're going to start that Friday night as soon as this verdict comes back. | ||
| Unless there's a couple of true American patriots that can withstand the heat. | ||
| Mike Davis, where do people go to Article 3 to get you? | ||
| Big week. | ||
| Historic week. | ||
| Article3project.org. | ||
| Article3project.org. | ||
| You can take action there, you can donate there, you can follow us on social there. | ||
| Mike Davis, thank you very much. | ||
| Honored to have you on here, brother. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Big week, Julie Kelly. | ||
| The DOJ is completely corrupt from top to bottom. | ||
| It's going to have to be purged. | ||
| It's going to have to be restructured. | ||
| They're going to have to get rid of tons of billets over there and lots of personnel on the afternoon of January 20th, 2025. | ||
| They understand this. | ||
| And the FBI is the American Gestapo. | ||
| As an institution, they are not worthy of going forward. | ||
| That's going to have to totally be restructured. | ||
| I've been strongly for getting rid of the FBI, starting over again with some federal law enforcement to the degree you need it. | ||
| But they've proven how corrupt they are in going after President Trump and others, but particularly President Trump. | ||
| This week's a historic week. | ||
| They can't win Unless they get some traction on lawfare. | ||
| They cannot. | ||
| It's impossible. | ||
| Rasmussen will be up in a second, and we'll talk about that. | ||
| Mark Mitchell from Rasmussen. | ||
| We're also going to go to Texas, where MAGA is in a throwdown in these runoff elections. | ||
| Particularly, I think the first time in 70 years, the Speaker of the House in Texas. | ||
| Job on the line. | ||
| We're going to have it all. | ||
| On a historic week. | ||
| Here in the War Room, remember there are weeks in which decades happen. | ||
| I think we're here. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||

Proportion bans are playing out brilliantly across the country. | |
| He wants to talk about Trump's embrace of political violence and the core threat he poses to our democracy. | ||
| Lastly, he wants to talk about Trump's economic plans and how they'd make Trump and his rich friends richer at the expense of working families, just like he has his entire life. | ||
| That's what this campaign is going to be focused on and talking about over the course of the next month. | ||
| We're going to make sure that Trump has the answer for all of the above and for his extremism on the debate stage. | ||
| That started last week when we launched our new ad, narrated by Mr. De Niro, which underscores Trump's increasingly unhinged and dangerous quest for power. | ||
| And we're not going to let our foot off the gas. | ||
| You'll be hearing and seeing... | ||
| You keep your foot on the gas, douche, like we could care. | ||
| I want to hear, I want to get De Niro up there. | ||
| So Denver, let's get focused here. | ||
| When we say go to the sticks, when De Niro's there, we want to go to the sticks when De Niro's there. | ||
| We've got Ken Paxton on the phone. | ||
| Attorney General Paxton, today's a big day on these runoffs. | ||

Well, it's huge. | |
| Yesterday was a one-year anniversary of Dade Phelan and the Republicans in the House impeaching me. | ||
| Today we're going to get victory over a lot of Republicans, including the Speaker. | ||
| I'm not in my way. | ||
| Who else? | ||
| The rest of these races, can you give us a quick highlight? | ||
| We're trying to get as many folks on here this morning. | ||
| I think we've got Kavi is going to join us. | ||
| Chip Roy is going to give us some perspective here in a minute. | ||

So we've got Andy Hopper, who is running in St. | |
| Cumbra, up in the Staten area, which is close to Dallas. | ||
| Helen Kerwin, who's running over in the Fort Worth area. | ||
| We've got, I think there's 12 of them that we're watching today. | ||
| And I think David Lowe is another one, but they're all either tied or in the lead, at least in the polls that we have. | ||
| So if voter turnout is on our side, which I think it will be, because in a runoff, typically more conservative voters show up. | ||
| I think we got a really good chance of winning almost all of these races. | ||
| Real quickly, your social media, where can people go to find out, get to all, everybody in all these races and where they go to vote? | ||
| Can you give us your social media handle? | ||

I owe this city a lot. | |
| And that's why it's so weird that Donald Trump is just across the street. | ||
| Because he doesn't belong in my city. | ||
| I don't know where he belongs, but he surely doesn't belong here. | ||
| We New Yorkers used to tolerate him when he was just another grubby real estate hustler masquerading as a big shot. | ||
| A two-bit playboy lying his way into the tabloids. | ||
| Pretending to be a spokesman, a spokesperson for himself. | ||
| He was calling it, as himself, for himself. | ||
| To fool the press into inflating his net worth. | ||
| A clown. | ||
| But this city is pretty accommodating. | ||
| We make room for clowns. | ||
| We have them all over the city. | ||
| People who do crazy things in the street, we tolerate it. | ||
| It's part of the city. | ||
| It's part of the culture. | ||
| But not a person like Trump who will eventually run the country. | ||
| That does not work, and we all know that. | ||
| Anyway, we make room for clowns to each his own. | ||
| But no one takes him or took him really seriously. | ||
| They take him seriously now, of course. | ||
| But around the country, people who didn't know him As we did, started to support him. | ||
| They bought into his bullshit. | ||
| Trump bought their votes with outrageous lies and empty promises. | ||
| He got the most religious evangelicals to applaud a sinner who bragged about sexual assault. | ||
| And just a couple of blocks from here, a jury found him liable for sexual abuse. | ||
| Somehow he even got self-styled patriots to support a man who called for terminating the | ||
| Constitution and on January 6th rallied an angry mob to threaten democracy, | ||
| leaving death and destruction in its wake. | ||
| That's why I needed to be involved and wanted to be involved in the new Biden-Harris ad. | ||
| Because it shows the violence of Trump. | ||
| And reminds us that he'll use violence against anyone who stands in the way of his megalomania and greed. | ||
| But it's a coward's violence. | ||
| You think Trump ever threw a punch himself? | ||
| Or took one? | ||
| This guy who ran and hid in the White House bunker when there were protesters outside? | ||
| No way. | ||
| Let me have it. | ||
| I want to make sure Denver gets this whole clip so we can play it later. | ||
| Robert De Niro. | ||
| By the way, two best ads we could have is juxtaposed the Chinese immigrant patriot versus this... He's despicable. | ||
| More of that later. | ||
| Let's go to Mark Mitchell or Rasmussen. | ||
| Mark Mitchell, the reason they're out there, the reason they put all the chips on the table on lawfare is they're getting blown out otherwise. | ||
| Politico's got the lead story this morning and Politico is how they've now panicked. | ||
| They've hit the panic button. | ||
| They've looked at the crosstabs and they know it's over. | ||
| Your thoughts, sir? | ||
| 100%. | ||
| And, you know, we came out about a month ago with Trump up 10 and 12, and the news was all about how it was an outlier. | ||
| And then, of course, CNN, Bloomberg came out and confirmed it. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| It wasn't just a swing. | ||
| I have unreleased numbers we haven't put out yet that, again, in a two-way, Donald Trump is up 10 points over Biden. | ||
| But there's just a lot of tears, because I think that they really did put all the chips on lawfare, and it looks like it's not going to work out for them. | ||
| And unfortunately, Joe Biden is not a popular president. | ||
| He's losing to Donald Trump, and he's a drain on the ticket. | ||
| Since the last time we talked polling, we came out with generic ballot numbers, and we have the Republicans up 5, but Donald Trump up 10. | ||
| Biden's not even getting above 40, but the Democrats get to 42% in the generic ballot. | ||
| So he's a drain on the ticket, and I think they're starting to realize that, and they're really starting to panic. | ||
| Let's talk about lawfare. | ||
| You've done some work on what American people think about who's actually in back of this and who benefits from it. | ||
| Because I think the American people now are working through this, even if this jury aren't patriots and can stand up for the rule of law, if they crumble. | ||
| Because the White House's entire messaging, they've already said that they're going to do a press conference from the White House. | ||
| Convicted felon, convicted felon, convicted felon. | ||
| That's all they're going to do. | ||
| Have this vermin like De Niro out there in the Hollywood machine just repeat, repeat, repeat. | ||
| But you're saying the American people may be on to him here, sir? | ||
| Oh, the deep state is burning their assets left and right. | ||
| Throughout our polling history, the FBI had about a 60% low 60s favorability rating. | ||
| The very first thing that for the first time put the FBI favorability underwater, 45% to 49%, was the rate on Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| And that's the same question set that we showed that a majority of Americans, 53%, said the FBI was acting as Joe Biden's personal Gestapo. | ||
| Unfortunately, I don't have the numbers yet, but we're going to refresh that set tomorrow and also go after the use of deadly force. | ||
| But then 64% of American voters say the FBI has been politically weaponized starting at the top in D.C. | ||
| And, you know, now a plurality of Americans basically think the Republic has fallen and a strong majority of Americans are concerned that we're living in a police state. | ||
| So that's Biden's America. | ||
| That's what they've had to do in order to stay on top. | ||
| And, you know, I think that that's why. | ||
| People are fleeing Biden. | ||
| And there's, I don't think, you know, James Carville, I don't think there's really anything that they can do at this point. | ||
| We've been going after this, but they lost the Hispanic vote. | ||
| They're losing the 18- to 39-year-old vote. | ||
| And even the black vote doesn't look like a shoo-in. | ||
| A month ago, in our two-way matchup, we had 61 percent of the black vote going to Joe Biden, 21 percent going to Donald Trump. | ||
| Now, it's a smaller subsample. | ||
| It's going to swing back and forth. | ||
| But believe it or not, in this latest set, I have Trump winning a two-way matchup against Biden by one point among black voters. | ||
| And these numbers are less than three days old. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So that's Donald Trump getting... Hold it. | |
| Hang on. | ||
| Don't drop a bomb like that. | ||
| Don't bury the lead here, brother. | ||
| Hit rewind on that. | ||
| Give me that again. | ||
| You were the first guys, and I want to make sure everybody knows, Rasmussen was the first to report this tectonic plate shift Of course they were mocked and ridiculed. | ||
| What's the latest number? | ||
| You haven't published this yet, but you're coming out of the field. | ||
| What's the latest number? | ||
| You're going to make me wear this one around my neck. | ||
| It might just swing back next month. | ||
| Numbers USA sponsors the monthly Immigration Index for Rasmussen Reports, and we've been putting match-ups in it. | ||
| We have a two-way and a five-way match-up. | ||
| Trump versus Biden. | ||
| In this one data point, Trump got 39% of the black vote, Biden 38%. | ||
| And in the five-way matchup, we have Trump getting over 40%, 43% of the black vote, Biden 31, and Kennedy 12. | ||
| And also the 18 to 39-year-olds, Trump's up three points in the two-way and five points in the five-way. | ||
| You know, a pretty solid lead considering that Joe Biden has spent about as much money as you would need to fight a proxy war with Russia to buy young voters with student loan bailouts. | ||
| And that didn't work. | ||
| So, you know, throwing them a couple of bucks in the minimum wage, it's not going to move the needle, so to speak. | ||
| I really think that, I mean, you know, of course something can always come out of the blue, but I think they're stuck with this switcheroo. | ||
| I think Vivek was right. | ||
| This debate is Joe Biden's audition. | ||
| Hang on, yeah, the debate can't happen. | ||
| It's not going to happen, but we'll work on that in a minute. | ||
| Hang on for a second, Mark Mitchell. | ||
| I've got, I've got Dade Phelan's opponent, brother Covey down in, Covey down in Texas. | ||
| Sir, where do we stay on this race today? | ||
| How do people, where do they go to vote? | ||
| This is the most important political contest this year so far. | ||
| So, what's going on? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I'm here at the polls and they'll be open until 7 p.m. | |
| tonight. | ||
| People are coming in and they're voting and this vote, you know, nothing less than the balance of the power in the Texas House is rest on this election. | ||
| So there's a lot at stake here. | ||
| We have a chance to throw out the most liberal and corrupt politician in Texas in the last 50 years. | ||
| And so people are coming out there expressing They're making their voices heard, and I'm excited that we're almost at the end of this process. | ||
| I've been running for now almost a year. | ||
| So tonight finishes that, and we finally get some answers. | ||
| They've hit you with everything, right? | ||
| Because they got all this money. | ||
| What has been your counter-argument? | ||
| Because they've come at you hard as they could possibly come, and you represent MAGA and the grassroots. | ||
| What's your counter to everything that the Republican business establishment and Dade Phelan is throwing at you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, they keep trying to push this idea that, well, they can do a lot for us with their power. | |
| But, you know, just because you have corrupt power doesn't mean you're helping out. | ||
| I would rather have people that have integrity and do the right thing in office, serve the American people, serve the people here in Texas. | ||
| Rather than using that to boost the establishment. | ||
| And so they've spent millions trying to destroy me. | ||
| But ultimately, President Trump saw through it. | ||
| He endorsed me. | ||
| He's the candidate that wants to secure our border. | ||
| He wants secure elections. | ||
| I'm supporting that agenda. | ||
| And I think ultimately, the majority of Texas and Southeast Texas, where I'm at, support that agenda. | ||
| Because ultimately, that's what's best for our families. | ||
| Sir, where do people go now? | ||
| Where can you send them that folks know where they can vote, the timing of it, any issues they may still have unresolved? | ||
| Where do they go? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep, you can go to Covey for Texas and get a link to the local election pages. | |
| Find a location near you and go vote. | ||
| You know, I think the main lesson I've learned in this whole campaign is that it only takes one person to make a difference. | ||
| So if we all step up, do a little bit more, we can save this country. | ||
| Courageous campaign you've run. | ||
| You forced a runoff today. | ||
| Historic. | ||
| Good luck, sir. | ||
| We'll talk to you later this evening. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, sir. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| God bless. | ||
| Covey down in Texas. | ||
| Do I have Chip Roy? | ||
| Okay, I'm going to get back to Mark Mitchell in a second. | ||
| Mark Mitchell just dropped a bombshell. | ||
| I hope we're ripping that right now and putting that online because that is a bombshell off the Rasmussen polling. | ||
| Chip Roy first, give us perspective of how important, how historic a day this is for the MAGA movement and grassroots and liberty-minded folks down in Texas. | ||
| Yes, Steve, good to be on. | ||
| I mean, right now we've got a really important election going on down in Texas, as you were just highlighting. | ||
| This is a question today for voters in Texas. | ||
| Are you for the status quo and maintaining the garbage that we've been doing for forever now? | ||
| Or are you actually wanting to try to change things? | ||
| And, you know, it's not just the Texas House and the Speaker's race that you're just talking about, but we have congressional races going on, in particular, obviously, Texas 23, where you've got Brandon Herrera, who represents kind of an insurgency of change. | ||
| Wanted to take on the status quo against Tony Gonzalez, who represents essentially just more of the big government appropriations that have been messing up Washington for far too long. | ||
| He voted for the FISA reauthorization. | ||
| He voted against the warrant protections. | ||
| He was the only member of the Texas delegation who did not sign on to the Texas border plan that formed the basis of H.R. 2. | ||
| He called by HR 29 bill which requires that we detain or turn away, quote, unchristian. | ||
| He has referred to conservative members of the House and the Freedom Caucus or otherwise as effectively members of the Klan. | ||
| He did that on national TV and has doubled down on that. | ||
| He's voted for massive spending bills, voted for gun control. | ||
| When we needed leadership to stand up against gun control, as you saw, I had a hearing last week with the ATF director. | ||
| They're now using the legislation that Tony supported. | ||
| To try to make sure that they're going to go after law-abiding citizens and make it to where I don't even know if I need a license to sell a gun. | ||
| So just go down the list of things. | ||
| It's more of the same. | ||
| Today is the day to try to change that in Texas. | ||
| He also called you, Gates, others anarchists, that you don't know how to run the House. | ||
| You're just a bunch of anarchists. | ||
| Your thoughts? | ||
| Well, I can tell you that what's been happening in the House of Representatives for decades is the actual problem. | ||
| Continued empowerment of elite to make decisions behind closed doors, to drop mega billion dollar bills on the floor of the House, trillion dollar bills, continue to rack up debt, spend money we don't have, leave our borders wide open while kissing the butt of the Chamber of Commerce, leaving us exposed and dangerous. | ||
| They're the people that have been messing up America for far too long. | ||
| It's why the approval for Congress is always about 15 to 18 percent. | ||
| I'm happy to side with the 80 to 82 percent of Americans who want to see change. | ||
| I'm proud to be a member of the Freedom Caucus. | ||
| I'm proud to align with people. | ||
| Who are tired of the status quo and want to change things. | ||
| Tony represents status quo. | ||
| It's that simple. | ||
| Talk to me about, you've got a bill up. | ||
| It's about voting. | ||
| I think illegal aliens. | ||
| Walk me through this. | ||
| Yeah, I've got a bill. | ||
| Actually, it's about illegal aliens voting. | ||
| As you well know, the SAVE Act, we've introduced legislation that passed out of committee last week. | ||
| Hopefully, it'll be on the floor of the House either the week we get back or the following week. | ||
| It would require documentary proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. | ||
| Yes, it is currently unlawful. | ||
| To vote in a federal election if you're not a citizen, but there's no real strong mechanism to enforce it. | ||
| And in fact, federal law prohibits states from enforcing it. | ||
| It's so bad that Arizona has two different systems, a state system where they pass legislation to require citizenship and then a federal system where they're prohibited from doing it. | ||
| So we want to clear the decks. | ||
| We want to have a requirement nationwide, have a standard nationwide. | ||
| It's totally constitutional. | ||
| There's not a federalism concern here because we have the authority as Congress to set the terms of our elections. | ||
| So we can do that. | ||
| We should do that. | ||
| We should require citizenship. | ||
| I hope the House will vote on this. | ||
| Credit to House leadership. | ||
| Last week, we passed a bill that was D.C.-focused to prohibit D.C. | ||
| from allowing illegals or non-citizens to vote in elections in DC and state and local elections. | ||
| There are other jurisdictions like Oakland and San Francisco and New York who do that as well. | ||
| So, the SAVE Act, we should make sure we pass it. | ||
| Make sure you let all your members know that they need to support that bill. | ||
| And if you're a Texan, get out and vote today. | ||
| Vote for change. | ||
| Vote against the status quo. | ||
| Vote for members who said they will affiliate with the Freedom Caucus. | ||
| Vote for members like We'll save that for another day. | ||
| It's not quite so hot. | ||
| in the Texas legislature who want to fundamentally change the place, stop allowing Democrats | ||
| to be chairs and make sure that we can take the Texas House back, but also the U.S. Congress | ||
| in Texas 23 and other important races. | ||
| We want to have you back later in the week to talk about spending appropriations bill, | ||
| but we'll save that for another day. | ||
| It's not quite so hot. | ||
| Chip, where do people get you on social media? | ||
| Chip Roy TX, C-H-I-P-R-O-Y-T-X on Twitter or at Roy.House.gov for my official website. | ||
| But yeah, please get out there and follow it. | ||
| Again, show up in Texas today. | ||
| Big race today. | ||
| Make sure that you show up and vote for the people who want to change the place and not for the status quo. | ||
| That means showing up. | ||
| Make sure you support Herrera over Gonzales and you do other things throughout the state of Texas. | ||
| Huge day today. | ||
| Chip, thank you so much. | ||
| Congressman Chip Roy from Texas. | ||
| Grace and Mo, I think I've got on Getter, I put down a voting chart earlier in the morning, if you can put that up. | ||
| Huge, huge day in this runoff in Texas. | ||
| Quite frankly, it's stunning some of the folks that were driven to runoffs. | ||
| More of that a little bit later. | ||
| Let's go back to Mark Mitchell. | ||
| Mark, just to reset, because you're really the The framing device here. | ||
| Biden, because of his policies, because of him and his lack of character, they are collapsing all around. | ||
| You're seeing Carville and some of these old hands of the Democratic Party are just coming off the chain now because these guys have looked at the crosstabs. | ||
| They've looked at enough polls. | ||
| They've looked at internal Democratic polls. | ||
| They understand it's not working. | ||
| That's why all the chips are on the table, whether it's Jack Smith down in Florida, Or particularly up here in this show trial in New York, because they're already talking at the White House how they're going to weaponize this in a talk from the White House Friday evening if the jury comes back by then, or early next week when the jury comes back. | ||
| If you don't get a hung jury, some courageous individual up there stands up to this Marxist, the Soviet-style court. | ||
| That convicted felon, convicted felon, convicted felon. | ||
| As you see it now with... | ||
| The polling you've done on this law fair, about the institutions of the CIA and FBI collapsing, of the public support of it, and just the basic feeling of what people feel of Biden now as the president. | ||
| Do you believe that a guilty verdict here, and even on a couple of charges, can change things? | ||
| Back to Biden. | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| Maybe Trump loses a few points. | ||
| He probably gains it back. | ||
| There'll be lots of news about appeals. | ||
| I just don't think so. | ||
| We've asked this kind of question a couple times and the results, I mean, I just forget them. | ||
| They were so unforgettable. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| You get about 35% of the population that says that they're less likely to vote for Trump if he gets a conviction, something like that. | ||
| You know, another 35, 40 who say more likely and everybody else that doesn't say, you know, | ||
| it makes no difference. | ||
| But it's all people who've made up their mind. | ||
| It's just not going to move the needle at all. | ||
| And I think the biggest data point is, you know, look back at what happened in March | ||
| of 2023 when those indictments came out. | ||
| And then all of a sudden, Trump is just absolutely crushing it in the GOP primary race. | ||
| And I think that's when his national numbers went up too. | ||
| I think, you know, Americans like a fair fight. | ||
| They don't like cheaters. | ||
| As we know from all of our polling on election integrity, one of the few pollsters out there that does it, Americans just hate the idea of, you know, a fraudulent democracy, so to speak. | ||
| Mark, I don't want you to give the numbers yet, but you're in the field on a couple of other huge polls. | ||
| Before we leave, just tell us what we can look forward to, what you guys are looking at, because you get down to the issues that other pollsters won't touch. | ||
| Where are you this week? | ||
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| Three major things. | ||
| One, the switcheroo candidate, and for the very first time, a majority of Democrats do not want Biden on the ticket. | ||
| But I think the big news is, is that everybody in the pundit class would tell you that Michelle Obama is the runaway favorite. | ||
| But only 21% of Democrats would pick her over Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Gavin Newsom, or Gretchen Whitmer. | ||
| One. | ||
| Number two, go to RasmussenReports.com, sign up for our daily update of polls, so tomorrow you'll see our new FBI numbers when they come out. | ||
| And what I'd really like for people to do is go to our YouTube, because we just had a really incredible vaccine question set that came out. | ||
| I think really changes everything. | ||
| I know people want to go to Rumble to watch videos. | ||
| Rumble's great. | ||
| But on YouTube, it could go viral and a whole bunch of normies can see it. | ||
| Our biggest viewed videos on YouTube are about election integrity and the vaccines. | ||
| And in this one, what we found is that only 42% of Americans actually know somebody who died of COVID, but 19% or almost one in five Americans said they know someone who died from COVID vaccine side effects. | ||
| So right there, that implicates hundreds of thousands of people potentially died, right? | ||
| So this also confirms our previous set that 10% of people know somebody in their family that died from the vaccines and only 11% from COVID. | ||
| Where do people go again, Mark, to get all your material heavy back on tomorrow? | ||
| Where do they go? | ||
| Where do you go right now? | ||
