| It's a before-and-after moment for America. | ||
| What just happened today is a line we can't uncross. | ||
| And these Democrats will rue the day they decided to use lawfare to stop a presidential candidate. | ||
| I'm not talking about violence. | ||
| I'm talking about tit-for-tat. | ||
| You just wait, and it won't be Hunter Biden the next time. | ||
| It's going to be Joe Biden. | ||
| It could potentially still be Barack Obama. | ||
| It could still potentially be Hillary Clinton. | ||
| We're going to have to look at what the statutes of limitations are on the various crimes they surely committed. | ||
| We're going to have to look at passing laws to revive those dead crimes, felonies or misdemeanors, so that those cases can be brought out of time. | ||
| That's what may be in the interests of justice, just like they did for E. Jean Carroll. | ||
| With a New York State law that was passed so that she could sue him. | ||
| That's what happened. | ||
| Turnabout is fair play. | ||
| And John Yoo, an amazing lawyer who worked in the Bush administration, Department of Justice, has a great piece out today talking about how that's the only way they'll learn. | ||
| The only way to save the Republic now is to give them a taste of their own medicine. | ||
| That's it! | ||
| That's it. | ||
| They tasted blood today. | ||
| They're the wolves with the bloody piece of meat in their mouths. | ||
| That doesn't stop the wolf from coming back for more. | ||
| My reaction was I was at Costco buying, you know, 10 boxes of cured coffee and my watch started to buzz and I got so excited I started leaking a little bit. | ||

This judge committed multiple elements of reversible error, and he did it while his daughter has made a ton of money | |
| off of Democratic candidates, and while he himself donated to the Biden campaign. | ||
| So, let me repeat the question. | ||
| You cannot say that this trial was anything more than politics | ||
| masquerading as justice. | ||
| And, yes, I will help Donald Trump. | ||
| I will help Donald Trump however I think that I can, Wolf, because if we allow this to happen, | ||
| it's so much bigger and so much more troubling If we allow the standard that you can throw your political opponents in jail because they're doing better than you in an election, it will be the end of this country as we know it. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||
| I know you don't like hearing that. | ||
| I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big lie? | ||

MAGA Media. | |
| I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. | ||

Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? | |

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb. | |
| It's Friday, 31 May in the year of her Lord 2024. | ||
| Boy, you know, as this audience knows, I've had some differences of opinions with Megyn Kelly ever since she tried to kneecap President Trump in the very first debate he was ever in. | ||
| But man, oh man, do I like that clip that she had. | ||
| I put it up on Getter, said, Old Testament, eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. | ||
| Of course, we have bigger fish to fry. | ||
| But this is pretty important. | ||
| We got to do that too. | ||
| We have to juggle many things. | ||
| I'm going to ask Denver. | ||
| Can I get, give me a thumbs up. | ||
| I want to replay that. | ||
| I like it so much, I want to hear it again. | ||
| And I've heard it about a thousand times already. | ||
| Just right to your face and talks about John Woo's piece. | ||
| We'll talk about that. | ||
| We got Jeff Clark. | ||
| We've got, we're packed. | ||
| I tell you what, let's, ladies and gentlemen, Megyn Kelly. | ||
| It's a before and after moment for America. | ||
| What just happened today is a line we can't uncross. | ||
| And these Democrats will rue the day they decided to use lawfare to stop a presidential candidate. | ||
| I'm not talking about violence. | ||
| I'm talking about tit-for-tat. | ||
| You just wait, and it won't be Hunter Biden the next time. | ||
| It's going to be Joe Biden. | ||
| It could potentially still be Barack Obama. | ||

| The only way to save the Republic now is to give them a taste of their own medicine. | ||
| That's it! | ||
| That's it. | ||
| They tasted blood today. | ||
| They're the wolves with the bloody piece of meat in their mouths. | ||
| That doesn't stop the wolf from coming back for more. | ||
| Doesn't stop the wolf from coming past your door right there. | ||
| Old Testament. | ||
| Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. | ||
| Gotta be part of it. | ||
| We gotta beat back this lawfare and we have a lot. | ||
| I don't know, you know, I'm an expert on the Clintons. | ||
| There's a lot there. | ||
| Oh baby, there's a lot there. | ||
| But we also have a lot that's right in front of us. | ||
| We ought to be all over that. | ||
| Jim Jordan sending a sharply worded letter today to try to demand a hearing on the 13th. | ||
| We're trying to track down Laura Loomer. | ||
| Laura Loomer has already said she's not impressed. | ||
| Okay, some of these fighters out there are not impressed. | ||
| I want to bring in a fight. | ||
| Jeff Clark, we know that this thing's a joke, so we don't need to go over that. | ||
| It's a complete abomination. | ||
| What then is to be done, sir? | ||
| You're on the short list to be Attorney General, White House Counsel, DAG, or maybe replace temporarily Mike Davis as Viceroy of D.C. | ||
| What is your plan, Jeff Clark? | ||
| Well, Steve, thanks for having me. | ||
| Look, I'm livid about this thing, and the first thing I have to say, even though you want me to focus on a next step solution, is that, look, this decision is legal excrement. | ||
| They stole the 2020 election, Steve, as you well know, and now they've stolen our legal system. | ||
| They're trashing our patrimony, and I will say that I will not stand for it. | ||
| I will do everything within my power to fight against The Anglo-Saxon legal system that we inherited with its due process, guarantee that actually goes all the way back to the Magna Carta, I'm not going to stand for and see that trash. | ||
| We're going to restore that and we're going to restore the Republic. | ||
| And we have to start now. | ||
| We have to start even before President Trump gets back in the White House. | ||
| So, look, I saw your diagnosis earlier today that some of the state AGs who would be best positioned to help corral the Biden administration, push back, provide a counterweight, That they're unlikely to do anything here because of their political incentives and because, you know, they are or may be never Trumpers or not particularly enthusiastic Trumpers. | ||
| So they're kind of leaving the president to his fate. | ||
| That may be entirely accurate. | ||
| I think we need some brave district attorneys in the United States to step forward and to take aggressive action. | ||
| And I think that they should partner with some conservative legal organizations that could help do a lot of legwork because some district attorney's offices who'd be most inclined to do this in, you know, more conservative areas that aren't necessarily the most well-heeled financially there, you know, they could partner together to sort of leverage the resources of both. | ||
| And I think what they should be pursuing just for starters. | ||
| As soon as possible are 42 U.S.C. | ||
| section 1983 and 1985 claims. | ||
| These, you know, Mike Davis has been talking about using the 18 U.S.C. | ||
| provisions about civil rights conspiracy. | ||
| Those date back to the whole Ku Klux Klan set of enactments as part of Reconstruction. | ||
| And, you know, sadly to use those, we're going to have to have control of the federal government back of the U.S. | ||
| Justice Department. | ||
| Which hopefully will occur on noon or 1201 on January 20th, 2025. | ||
| But pending that, we have to use state or failing that, local officials. | ||
| And there are civil conspiracy statutes, that's 1985. | ||
| And 1983 is the kind of base provision for if you're engaged in action that violates the constitutional rights and the privileges and immunities of citizens of the United States, that includes President Trump, that includes other targets, of this massive weaponized lawfare, then you can bring | ||
| civil actions. | ||
| You can even potentially get money damages. | ||
| And I think local DAs would have the jurisdiction to do that because they would have standing. | ||
| This is all an attempt to stop President Trump from effectively running and from winning | ||
| It's something that affects the entire nation by its very nature, Steve. | ||
| And, you know, we need somebody, you know, just to use an analogy like this, right, that the prosecutor down in New Orleans who went after trying to expose what happened to President Kennedy. | ||
| We need someone with that same level of energy and drive backed by enough resources to actually, you know, pursue | ||
| these people, because they're definitely going to bring in the best law | ||
| firms to go after the entire federal state apparatus that the Democrats have put | ||
| together to go after President Trump and to destroy our rule of law and our republic state. | ||
| Okay. Hang on, because Jeff Clark's one of the smartest lawyers I know. | ||
| I'm quite intrigued. | ||
| So if you go back to the Kennedy assassination, I think this would be Jim Garrett, right? | ||
| Yes. Crack production team. I think it's Jim Garrett. | ||
| He was the local dish. Jim Garrison, Jim Garrison. He was the local. | ||
| A district attorney in New Orleans, and because Lee Harvey Oswald and some of the activity around, I don't know, CIA, Naval Intelligence, you know, Clay Shaw, they had a bunch of nefarious characters down there. | ||
| He did an investigation and actually tried to do an assassination. | ||
| He tried to, I think he put Clay Shaw on trial, a local businessman, as being the guy that organized the assassination. | ||
| Now, what is 42? | ||
| Bring that to the current time on what you're talking about, because I think the audience is going to be very intrigued about somebody being creative here about how we can get off the dime and get on offense. | ||
| Sure, Steve. | ||
| So look, he brought criminal charges, right? | ||
| And that's obviously the bread and butter of what a district attorney does. | ||
| But anyone who can make out a claim of injury, and I think anyone who Uh, is looking at what's happening to President Trump and seeing their choices be artificially constricted by this Democrat lawfare. | ||
| Uh, and I, I think that the, you know, really actually not to put too fine a point on it, what issued from, uh, this jury, uh, and from Judge Marchand, who's completely, uh, corrupted by his financial interests through his daughter and is clearly a partisan Democrat to the extreme. | ||
| It's legal excrement, Steve. | ||
| It's garbage in and garbage out. | ||
| Uh, they put a garbage theory in front of the judge. | ||
| He didn't dismiss it. | ||
| He let it go to the jury. | ||
| He jury rigged, uh, you know, uh, pun intended the, the jury instructions that went to them and we get this terrible outcome. | ||
| So, you know, that's what a district attorney does is, is, is criminal things. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But I can foresee that some might say that, you know, the, the criminal jurisdiction of some DA, you know, in, in some red state wouldn't necessarily reach to what's going on in Northeastern states or in, you know, | ||
| Georgia, if we're not talking about a local prosecutor in Georgia or into DC. | ||
| But what clearly does apply to sort of any person who's engaged in a conspiracy like | ||
| this, and there's clear evidence of the federal government actors under Biden and state actors | ||
| and local actors all working together, all visiting the White House, and they won't turn | ||
| over the correspondence about what they actually were doing during those meetings, that they | ||
| are violating federal civil rights laws. | ||
| And those are operationalized primarily when you're bringing a civil cause of action like that through 42 U.S.C. | ||
|
unidentified
|
1983. | |
| The federal courts are just festooned with 1983 suits. | ||
| And also 1985, which is about civil rights conspiracies in particular. | ||
| What do you think about Jordan? | ||
| I'm going to hold you through the break. | ||
| Kurt Mills from Heritage is going to join us. | ||
| I think we're going to track down Bob Good. | ||
| I think he's down at the convention today. | ||
| We're going to track down Bob Good. | ||
| Laura Loomer, if we can get her. | ||
| It's a Friday afternoon. | ||
| There's a lot of moving pieces. | ||
| In fact, you just hold right there, Jeff Clark. | ||
| You're going to stick with me for a while. | ||
| Because you're one of the smartest guys I know, and of course, President Trump thinks very highly of you, and we're going on offense here. | ||
| In the war room, one part of it, you know, Megyn Kelly's absolutely 100% correct. | ||
| One part of this has got to be Old Testament. | ||
| You just have to. | ||
| Otherwise, you're not going to back these guys off. | ||
| They are like wolves. | ||
| And they travel in a pack and they, uh, once they taste blood, they're going to keep coming. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It's unpleasant work, but somebody has got to do it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Of course, there's much, many, many, many, many other things that people are doing simultaneously, including getting the army of the awakened ready to do your work. | ||
| And that would be get out the vote. | ||
| That would be, uh, being election officials, election judges, all of that. | ||
| We're going to talk all about that today. | ||
| in the five o'clock hour. | ||
| Six o'clock, we're gonna pull the camera back. | ||
| I told you there's three things here, right? | ||
| You've got the, of course, you've got the law fair. | ||
| You have the big steal of what you're trying to do. | ||
| And of course, you've got wag the dog. | ||
| Big news about Gaza today. | ||
| I think Biden thinks he solved the problem in the Middle East. | ||
| Short commercial break, back in a moment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| So, hey, Jeff Clark, I got one for you. | ||
| Mike Howe, and he couldn't make it, we're gonna get Mike next week over at Heritage, and Mike's one of the hammers. | ||
| He's got this idea, and he's talking about Jim Jordan's letter to Colangelo and Alvin Bragg, and I don't see it as a subpoena, I see it as a, hey, we're really demanding you come down here and talk. | ||
| What are Bragg and Colangelo gonna do with that? | ||
| Well, I think they're probably going to take a page from the Fonny Willis playbook. | ||
| They're going to send back an argument of this is federalism in action, right? | ||
| We're the state local DA and you're the feds. | ||
| You do federal prosecutions. | ||
| We do state local prosecutions. | ||
| You can't interfere with us. | ||
| Sorry, the doctrine of federalism prevents me from coming. | ||
| And so you have to be prepared, right, that this is not the first step. | ||
| First of all, I don't think This should have been the first step to just send a letter asking them to come testify at a hearing. | ||
| I think the first step should be a subpoena for documents and for them to come in for a deposition with the staff. | ||
| Because these hearings, you know, they can reveal information, but the members only get five minutes each, right? | ||
| And it's broken up by having, you know, like a checkerboard, Republican and Democrat, etc. | ||
| You know, if you get a staff deposition, you can just go on For several hours, right? | ||
| And then eventually you can turn it over to Minority Council for them to try to do whatever rehabilitation they want to do. | ||
| And then you call from that and then you have the live hearing. | ||
| That's the way to do it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And you also have to be prepared. | |
| And this is under oath. | ||
| You get them under oath. | ||
| You have an experienced prosecutor on the staff, on the committee. | ||
| Grill them. | ||
| Not congressmen doing five minutes. | ||
| Are you retained? | ||
| You get a special guy like Jeff Clark in there. | ||
| And you hammer these guys for four or five hours, right? | ||
| And you've got all the documents in front of you. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And you put them on notice that under penalty of perjury, they can't lie to you, correct? | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And look, you know, just follow the playbook that the Democrats used for the January 6th Committee, right? | ||
| They had two U.S. | ||
| attorneys. | ||
| They had a Democrat U.S. | ||
| attorney and they had a Republican U.S. | ||
| attorney. | ||
| Both were present at my first deposition to the January 6th committee where I unleashed | ||
| on them a series of privileges which they still purported to reject but which they've | ||
| really never pierced. | ||
| And they were geared up to question me for hours. | ||
| They had like 20 people in the room, plus all the members on Webex, except for Adam Schiff, who was physically in the room. | ||
| This is what you got to do. | ||
| And if they refuse to show up, then you got to go take them to the rules committee and then bring it to the floor and then send over a referral for criminal contempt. | ||
| Or you really have to think about the nuclear option because we know the Biden DOJ is not going to process that just like they didn't do anything against Eric Holder. | ||
| Then you got to be prepared to use Congress's inherent contempt power to go out and grab them and put them in the capital jail until they're prepared to testify, Steve. | ||
| So you've got, we haven't even voted out contempt. | ||
| The two committees have, but we haven't voted out for the whole house, the contempt on Garland and people are whining because we don't have, we're short some Republican votes. | ||
| Nothing's going to happen until you show the teeth that you, you've got teeth, right? | ||
| Yeah, no. | ||
| I mean, if you just send a polite letter of show up, you're going to get a polite letter back that says, I'm sorry, we're not going to come in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| You know, now if that's like the opening salvo to a dance that you fully anticipate, you know, taking the iron fist out of the velvet glove at | ||
| some point, then, you know, I can see the purpose to it. But if it's | ||
| only going to be, you know, a velvet glove tap on the shoulder and they can | ||
| ignore it in a response letter, then it's not going to accomplish anything. | ||
| And so Mike Howe, who's always very creative with her heritage, she's saying, hey, | ||
| he's got an idea, got a plan that the first step is Jordan takes the $10 million | ||
| that's sitting there left over from the J6, and he uses that immediately to fund a special | ||
| council, a special counsel to go after these guys. | ||
| Your thoughts? | ||
| I haven't seen Mike's proposal, Steve, but to the extent you understand the details of it, this would be a kind of special counsel attached to House Judiciary or House Subcommittee Weaponization. | ||
| It's not like they could demand and really get a special counsel using the DOJ regs inside DOJ. | ||
| Or am I misunderstanding that? | ||
| What is going to, what is going to, what is it going to take for us not to wait for President Trump to win re-election and to come back and do this? | ||
| What action do you believe can be taken immediately at the House level, right? | ||
| I love the fact what you're talking about, the local DAs, we're going to work on that. | ||
| You've got some attorney generals, you got Paxton in Texas, but you particularly have who have jurisdiction in Georgia and Florida, | ||
| there may be some political reasons not doing it, but what would you recommend to Jim Jordan | ||
| and the House they do right now to go on offense and so people can feel that they're on offense? | ||
| So Steve, I would again say it's following the January 6th committee playbook. | ||
| So I would go and staff up with as many assistant US attorneys, former assistant U.S. | ||
| attorneys as possible, as many former U.S. | ||
| attorneys as possible. | ||
| If you can't find a former U.S. | ||
| attorney, find a former state AG. | ||
| If you can't find that, find former DAs. | ||
| Find people who have serious criminal prosecution experience and who, at the very least, have a lot of deposition experience. | ||
| Send them in to take depositions, staff depositions. | ||
| And each side has fairness there, right? | ||
| Unlike the January 6 playbook where it was only the one side taking the depositions with no ability to push back with a Republican questioner, right? | ||
| And then once you have those sworn bodies of testimony, Then you hone it down and then you turn it into a public hearing where you grill them about the admissions you got during that process. | ||
| And you also subpoena all the documents, which I know, you know, Cash has been on from day one. | ||
| The documents are always the source of, you get the documents first and then you do the deposition, right? | ||
| And you got to be prepared if they're not going to play ball, they're not going to comply, to take it to the level of enforcement to make them comply. | ||
| No, you had Corey Mills today and you got Cash working on that. | ||
| But we have to get on offense on this. | ||
| Jeff Clark, you're doing such great work over at CRA. | ||
| Everybody's now focused. | ||
| And finally, we've waken up some Republicans to get serious about this and get serious about it now. | ||
| Where can people track you on social media and where can they get your great work over at CRA? | ||
| Sure, Steve. | ||
| So we are at AmericaRenewing.com and on social media, I am Jeff Clark, U.S. | ||
| Jeff, fantastic work. | ||
| Thank you so much for joining us here on a Friday afternoon. | ||
| Thanks, Steve. | ||
| Okay, remember, I want to triage this as the three major verticals or lines of work that we have. | ||
| One is lawfare, right? | ||
| And we're all over that, right? | ||
| We've got all these people working on that. | ||
| The other is the big steel, because they're going to try to do that too, Mark Elias and these guys. | ||
| And the third is wag the dog. | ||
| Wag the dog, which is they're going to do something with the third world war that's already started, or some sort of October surprise, maybe the October surprise comes in August. | ||
| I want to bring in Kurt Mills now, an old colleague, I shouldn't say an old colleague, a colleague from way back, and one of the smartest guys I know on geopolitics, national security, foreign affairs, and working over at Heritage doing a lot of things. | ||
| First off, did Biden announce, I thought the Israelis We're going to go into Gaza and take care of the remaining combat brigades. | ||
| Nikki Haley's over there signing bombs. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And did Biden announce today at the White House? | ||
| Because it's very hard to follow this guy. | ||
| Kurt, did he announce that there's a new peace plan he's got and that the Israelis support this and they're going to have they're going to have a ceasefire and it's going to lead to peace and the Hamas military brigades are going to stay there? | ||
| Do you do you fully understand And maybe Neocon Nikki cut the deal while she was over there. | ||
| Do you fully understand what's going on here now? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, I'm not sure anybody fully understands what's going on there. | |
| That includes the American government and the Israeli government. | ||
| What I will say is that it looks like there's a new plan. | ||
| I think the critical elements here are, one, nobody on the Western side knows if the Israeli hostages are even alive, one. | ||
| And then secondly, it's possible that Netanyahu's government is going to collapse in Israel. | ||
| Mr. Gantz, effectively his wartime co-prime minister here may withdraw from the government in early June. | ||
| And so I think Washington believes that they have leverage now to force some sort of shock ceasefire. | ||
| And so this is Benny Gantz, the former IDF Commander-in-Chief. | ||
| Look, Kurt, you were America first before America first was popular. | ||
| You're seeing announcements now with Zelensky that I guess the Brits, the French with Macron, and now the Americans have secretly, we've approved, actually using our weapon systems, our ammunition, our missiles to launch into Russia itself. | ||
| As an American, a guy that looks at the world through the lens of America First, and you're one of the early architects of this strategy, is Biden about as far off of America First as you could possibly get? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What I would say about the European situation is, one, I think it's very encouraging that the Europeans seem like they are investing and having their own army now. | |
| The problem is that they are fighting the wrong war. | ||
| No, I think people forget how much Biden actually cares about Russia. | ||
| You could see it during the campaign. | ||
| In 2019, early 2020, he has personal animus towards the leadership of Russia, and it's very much affecting foreign policy. | ||
| They try to walk things back. | ||
| But remember, at the absolute start of the war, Biden floated a regime change policy in Poland in late May. | ||
| He said, for the love of God, man, this guy's got to go, or something to that effect. | ||
| And then the White House said, like, oops, we didn't really mean that. | ||
| No, I think it's very clear this is an ideologically driven war. | ||
| And I think, regrettably, Washington's not even close to the most blinkered on this. | ||
| That, of course, is the Zelensky government themselves, who I don't think will negotiate under any circumstances. | ||
| And if this actually ever ends, I think the U.S. | ||
| will have to go around Zelensky. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Kurt, hang on for a second. | ||
| Kurt over at Heritage. | ||
| Bob Good, we're going to try to get Bob Good to join us. | ||
| Laura Loomer. | ||
| We've got a lot more on a Friday afternoon. | ||
| In the second hour, we're actually going to drill down more on Ukraine. | ||
| We're going to drill down on Taiwan. | ||
| We've got Captain Finnell coming in from Europe. | ||
| He's going to talk to us about this 10-point plan of what the CCP is doing with the island of Taiwan. | ||

That's kindly appreciated, Steve. | |
| Look, the magazine was founded in 2002 by Trump before Trump. | ||
| That was Patrick J. Buchanan. | ||
| Some of your viewers will remember, most famous columnist in the country at the time. | ||
| He founded it in opposition with Scott McConnell. | ||
| against the Iraq war. | ||
| Eventually it was mission accomplished. | ||
| We got us out of Iraq and the issues that Trump ran on, foreign policy, trade and immigration, | ||
| TAC cares about at its core. | ||
| And that's what we're doing today here in 2024. | ||
| If you want to understand the ideological roadmap and battle space of the current Republican Party, | ||
| which is in a civil war, as you know, this is the website for you, theamericanconservative.com. | ||
| . | ||
| Kurt, you've been around the Civil War for a while. | ||
| They have the money, we have the muscle. | ||
| Objectively, how do you think we stand now? | ||
| Because you're seeing the money, you know, all the billionaires are coming back, you know, after Nikki Haley's royal tour of Israel. | ||
| Right? | ||
| You've seen all these billionaires pile in here and Nikki Haley, I don't think, I didn't check right before we came in, but I don't think she's said anything about Trump's, my crack staff here is going to check, at least she was 20 hours without saying anything about President Trump's, the law for or against him. | ||
| They want to force her on the ticket as Prime Minister to be the Dick Cheney to Bush and just basically go around Trump. | ||
| Where do you think we stand in that civil war right now, sir? | ||
|

|
Uh, look, I think if Donald Trump was not on the ballot, I think a Trumpist | |
| would be the nominee for president. | ||
| Um, that's the, I think that's the, frankly, the good news. | ||
| Uh, the bad news is that, uh, the establishment is far more organized And far more effective at the lower ranks. | ||
| You mentioned Nikki Haley, but I've referenced previously on this show, there are people such as Michael McFaul, the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, very important. | ||
| If these committee chairmanships are not occupied by sort of blob neoconservative types, we don't get the latest Ukraine appropriation at all. | ||
| So it's one thing to have the White House, it's one thing to have the control of the parties commanding heights. | ||
| It's quite another to have, you know, further down. | ||
| So I think it's a bit of a stalemate. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| I don't think Trump will select Ambassador Haley, but unfortunately you can't rule it out for the dynamics that you just flagged. | ||
| Very dynamic situation. | ||
| Kurt, social media, where do they go to find out more about the American conservative? | ||
| It's a must read here in the War Room. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure, at AmconMag on Twitter, at Kurt Mills, C-U-R-T-M-I-L-L-S on TwitterX. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| I gotta tell you, the public intellectuals we have are absolutely amazing, right? | ||
| You got Beattie, you got Mike Benz, you got Josh Hammer, Kurt Mills. | ||
| I mean, we can match up with anybody. | ||
| You're not slumming when you're with MAGA public intellectuals. | ||
| Let's bring in Bob Goode. | ||
| You just heard about the power of the chairmanships. | ||
| So Bob, you're the head of the Freedom Caucus, Congressman Good. | ||
| We're in a dogfight on every different front. | ||
| Congress really hasn't done their job of oversight or getting on top of trying to stop this lawfare. | ||
| Even worse, we're not, don't have our hands around spending. | ||
| Wicker, I think it's Roger Wicker of Mississippi is talking about a $55 billion increase to the defense budget to get us almost to a trillion dollars. | ||
| He wants to spend 5% of GDP. | ||
| Now, I know you're all about national security, as I am, but what is going to happen? | ||
| When are we going to get serious about the spending up there? | ||
| You're the chairman of the Freedom Caucus. | ||
| Walk us through where the fight's going to be. | ||
| Well, as you know, Steve, we have surrendered over the past year and a half with the House majority. | ||
| We've essentially done what Democrats have wanted to do on every meaningful piece of legislation, the material bills that impact the country from a spending standpoint. | ||
| We have passed those with 90% or more Democrats voting for those bills. | ||
| So there's really no difference if the Democrats had the majority. | ||
| We've essentially, Steve, done what Democrats want in order to keep the government open and operating. | ||
| So we can't have any disruption to the very policies that we campaign against, the very things that we run against. | ||
| And we're literally bankrupting the country, bankrupting our kids and grandkids, and keeping the Pelosi, Biden, Schumer policies in place. | ||
| So as we approach the end of this fiscal year, September 30, our requirement is to pass 12 individual spending bills. | ||
| And it's a two-pronged approach here. | ||
| One is to implement the policies that we stand for. | ||
| And the other approach, of course, is to cut our spending and try to put us on a path towards fiscal responsibility. | ||
| We have failed to do that. | ||
| My hope is that we'll at least pass out-of-the-house bills that reflect Republican priorities and do cut spending from a year ago. | ||
| But the past year and a half wouldn't give us much reason for optimism in that respect. | ||
| So, right now we haven't even, you know, we're talking about going on offense, we're talking about cutting these budgets. | ||
| I don't know what House leadership, Jordan finally sent this letter out today about getting Colangelo and Alvin Bragg, but it wasn't accompanied with subpoenas for documents. | ||
| You're sitting there, we haven't yet voted as a House to bring forward the contempt charge on Garland. | ||
| What is it about leadership that they don't realize? | ||
| And because you're having people like Megyn Kelly, we got Sean Davis over the Federalist. | ||
| I mean, you have people that their hair's not on fire, like oftentimes you are here in the war room, just going off on people and wanting action, action, action. | ||
| The Freedom Caucus is known for action. | ||
| So where do you think we stand and when are we going to put a pitchfork in some people's backs and get some action going? | ||
| The Republican Party wants to continue to bring a knife to a gunfight, and you wonder if they really recognize as a whole that there's an existential threat to the country, that everything that we value, everything that we hold dear is at stake, and the Democrats play for keeps. | ||
| We see that with President Trump, obviously. | ||
| This is a case that we all know would never have been brought if he wasn't a presumptive Republican nominee. | ||
| This is lawfare at the highest level. | ||
| It's election engineering, election interference at the highest level. | ||
| As you know, they tried to keep him off the ballot. | ||
| Now they've tried to keep him off the campaign trail to drain his resources. | ||
| They want to put him in jail, obviously. | ||
| It'll be incredible to see what this judge will do while the president is waiting appeal on this terrible, egregious abuse of power. | ||
| Elections have consequences when we allow people into office that are willing to abuse that power against their | ||
| political opponents. | ||
| And we're seeing that like never before in the history of the country. | ||
| And what we can do, Steve, is we can cut it off. We can defund it. | ||
| We could have defunded, out of the House at least, refused to fund the weaponization of the federal government against | ||
| its citizens, the weaponization by the Department of Injustice under Merrick | ||
| Garland, and we couldn't get Republicans to do that. | ||
| We could do that in the spending bill this year. | ||
| We could at least defund it after the government funding expires on September 30. | ||
| We could defund it come October 1 and Merrick Garland wouldn't have a budget to operate on if we had the courage and the will to do it. | ||
| I know my House Freedom Caucus colleagues and I are willing to do that but the leadership of course of the conference has not shown a willingness to do that. | ||
| Congressman Good, look forward to having you on next week. | ||
| Tell us, where do you go to your website about your campaign? | ||
| Where do they go for your social media, sir? | ||
| Bobgoodforcongress.com, at Rep. | ||
| Bob Good. | ||
| Steve, thanks for being a leader in the fight. | ||
| The war room is leading the way, and you guys are the pip of the spirit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's great to be with you once again. | |
| Well, we love having the Freedom Caucus. | ||
| You guys are the tip of the spear down there, and it's an ugly fight. | ||
| So thank you, sir. | ||
| Appreciate you coming on on a Friday afternoon. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Congressman Bob Good, from God's country, down in the most beautiful part of Virginia. | ||
| Man, oh man, it's beautiful down there. | ||
| Laura Loomer, by the way, you lit up Jim Jordan about this. | ||
| You're not impressed with this letter? | ||
| You're not impressed with the, hey, I've got the 13th of June open for a committee hearing and I want Alvin Bragg and Matthew Colangelo. | ||
| I take it, Laura Loomer, you don't assume they're going to send their documents down and they're going to come and take an oath and be under penalty of perjury? | ||
| I didn't take it from your tweet? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look, I'm sick and tired of all these strongly worded letters, and the Republicans need to understand that, you know, we're in a new era now. | |
| We are not going to fall for their typical tricks and their typical games. | ||
| This is what they all do, Steve. | ||
| Did you notice today, even the senators, everyone's trying to act like these senators that said, oh, all of a sudden we woke up today and we realized that we have the power of the purse. | ||
| We're not going to comply with your investigations anymore. | ||
| How come that wasn't done on day one of the illegitimate Biden administration when they stole this election, right? | ||
| Why does it take Donald Trump potentially going to jail for the rest of his life, being killed on Rikers Island, for these senators to take their stupid heads out of their lazy asses and finally do something that should have been done on day one? | ||
| And with regards to Jim Jordan, oh, I respect I am respectfully asking you, Mr. Michael Colangelo and Mr. Alvin Bragg, respect. | ||
| Why are we giving these people respect? | ||
| These people just completely denigrated our justice system. | ||
| They made a mockery and a joke of the United States of America, and they would like to see President Donald Trump killed in a jail cell. | ||
| And why are we sending letters? | ||
| What is a letter going to do? | ||
| Jim Jordan knows that he could send a subpoena. | ||
| Comer knows that he could send a subpoena to Lauren Mershawn, the daughter of Judge Mershawn and the other executives at her company, Authentic Campaign. | ||
| And you want to know something? | ||
| I was talking to multiple United States senators about this today, who, you know, some of them took offense to the way I lit them up on social media. | ||
| And they told me that James Comer is intentionally blocking all efforts to subpoena Lauren Mershawn. | ||
| So I'm breaking this exclusively on War Room right now. | ||
| James Comer is intentionally sabotaging President Trump and I know for a fact that multiple members of the United States Senate and multiple members of Congress have gone to James Comer and asked him to subpoena Lauren Merchant and he is trying to block it. | ||
| So I don't want to see any more fake letters from Jim Jordan so he can pretend like he's covering, you know, President Trump's back because he works with James Comer and he needs to be calling him out for intentionally sabotaging Donald Trump. | ||
| You're known as one of the top investigative reporters out there and a pretty tough nut. | ||
| Are you saying that all of this is just performative, ma'am? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely it's performative. | |
| What exactly is a letter going to do? | ||
| What exactly is another hearing going to do? | ||
| No more hearings. | ||
| No more letters. | ||
| It's time for subpoenas. | ||
| Why do the Republicans not use the power of the subpoena when they have the power to do so? | ||
| It's just absolutely mind-boggling. | ||
| A letter is not going to do anything. | ||
| Showing up for a hearing isn't going to do anything. | ||
| So what, Jim Jordan can raise his voice and, you know, wear another outfit without a suit jacket like he does every single time he has another one of these hearings and then clip it and have it go on Fox News and go on Sean Hannity and go on Jesse Watters and then send out his soundbite in a fundraising email? | ||
| Well, I mean, this is... | ||
| Rinse, wash, repeat, Steve. | ||
| This is exactly what all of these Republicans do. | ||
| People need to understand that all of these hearings are performative. | ||
| These members of Congress and the members of the Senate use these hearings as a way to have their social media interns clip clips for them for their Twitter accounts and their Facebook accounts and their Instagram accounts so then they can go out and raise money off of Trump supporters while pretending to have President Trump back. | ||
| They abandoned President Trump. | ||
| Jim Jordan abandoned President Trump. | ||
| I didn't see him ever I was out there at the trial, Steve. | ||
| I didn't see Jim Jordan. | ||
| I didn't see James Comer. | ||
| How come they didn't subpoena Lauren Marchand when I sent them communications regarding Lauren Marchand's ties to the Biden administration and all of these congressional Democrats who are sending millions of dollars to her house? | ||
| They are intentionally disregarding all of this evidence. | ||
| I know for a fact, because even Congresswoman Elise Stefanik's office has passed this information along, and Elise Stefanik has written letters, and nothing's been done. | ||
| Nothing's been done. | ||
| So I know for a fact that the House Oversight Committee has access to all this information, but James Comer is intentionally disregarding requests to send Mershawn a subpoena. | ||
| And you got this from U.S. | ||
| Senators and Senate staff that you talked to today that weren't happy about you lighting them up, correct? | ||
| That's where you get this information about Congressman Comer? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, absolutely. | |
| I was texting directly with members of the United States Senate. | ||
| And if I have to start naming names, I'll start naming names because President Donald Trump's life is on the line. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| I really don't care, Steve. | ||
| I don't care about burning people. | ||
| I don't care about burning some of these Senators and people who I've talked to. | ||
| If they don't start forcing James Comer to get... If these Senators and these members of Congress don't start forcing James Comer and forcing Jim Jordan to send a subpoena to Lauren Marchand, I'm going to start posting screenshots of these text messages. | ||
| Hang on one second. | ||

| Laura Loomer, knowing you as I know, there are not a lot of tender moments. | ||
| I was quite touched this morning, ma'am, in your Twitter feed, you said you were weeping or crying while you were watching President Trump. | ||
| Why was that, ma'am? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because it's just so sad. | |
| You know, look, I love President Trump, and he just looked exhausted today. | ||
| And I'm not saying that he looked bad, but, you know, you could see his face looked a little red, and he just looked so worn out. | ||
| And this is a man that just doesn't stop. | ||
| He doesn't sleep. | ||
| He never gets a break. | ||
| And he's talking about how he'll do anything to save our country. | ||
| And it's just really sad. | ||
| It made me cry. | ||
| I really honestly just was crying the entire time while I was watching President Trump's press conference today because I just love Donald Trump so much. | ||
| And this is a man who is a billionaire who's sitting at home with his grandkids, playing golf every day, doing whatever he wants to do, and he's literally going through hell. | ||
| People better listen to Loomer. | ||
| I'm telling you, we gotta stop this thing. | ||
| It's all gonna be better when Trump's in. | ||
| There's too much on Trump's shoulders. | ||
| It's time now for everybody. | ||
| And you don't have to send a check to do this. | ||
| We all have to pick up this load. | ||
| She's 100% correct. | ||
| He's too big a load. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's like a Superman to us, but he's not Superman in the sense that a human body can only take so much, and he's an older man. | |
| They're trying to kill Trump. | ||
| They're trying to give him a heart attack or a stroke, and people need to start actually putting in the effort so that Donald Trump doesn't have to work as hard as he does. | ||
| It's just really heartbreaking to see. | ||
| We need to have his back. | ||
