steve bannon
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.
jake tapper
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
unidentified
MAGA Media.
jake tapper
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
unidentified
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
steve bannon
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb.
steve bannon
Okay, Tuesday, 4 June in the year of our Lord, 2024, 35th anniversary of Tiananmen Square,
82nd anniversary of the Battle of Midway, 4th anniversary of the foundation of the
new federal state of China, an alternative to the Chinese Communist Party. On our run-up
to the 80th commemoration of D-Day in the landings in Normandy.
We're going to get to all of this.
I want to start with Dave Brad.
Dave Brad, you just heard Scott Besant on the economy.
I do think, and I think you will see this Because the strongest piece, I think lawfare is important.
Don't get me wrong.
We gotta be hammering that every day.
But President Trump, when you look at, in particular with Biden signing the executive order on the border, understanding now he's created a catastrophe, he's trying to have optics to turn it up.
If you look at the economy, we're the strongest.
If you look at the forever wars, we're the strongest.
If you look at lawfare, we're the strongest.
If you look at, you know, the invasion of the southern border, we're the strongest.
So just bang, bang, bang.
We just ought to go on offense on the positive nature of Trump's record, his empirical evidence of his record.
This is how you're going to get to the blowout number over 60%.
Your thoughts on the economy, brother?
dave brat
Yeah, well, as I've been saying on the show forever, we have about a 100-year track record of productivity going down, 70 years in the past, and according to CBO, 30 years in the future.
The exception to that was President Trump.
He had blue-collar wages going up for the first time in a 40-year period.
That was a historic achievement.
He had economic growth going, as Besant said, the supply side was kicking in.
And as Besant also said, the significance of the supply side kicking in is that is non-inflationary, right?
What people are starting to learn, right?
The hard way, right?
And this is due to the war room in large part.
It's the Keynesian stimulus piece, it's the inflationary piece, and it's the unproductive piece.
All of the job gains and the job reports went to the healthcare sector, the education sector, and basically the transfers of wealth, sharing the wealth around, which does not create long-run economic growth.
So as a result of the Biden years, there's something brewing right now, right?
When Jamie Dimon comes out and says this is an extremely dangerous period and the New York Stock Exchange guy says, go over that again real slow.
I got a few charts I'll show you later, but in a nutshell, The savings rate is down to 3.5%, right?
It used to be 10% was the kind of long-term average.
So the savings rate is down to 3.5%, you know, personal savings rate.
And then the labor market is cooling.
There's been a drop off in the jobs.
You know, they're always updated and they go down.
And then the upshot of both of those together is that real disposable income is way down, 5% down to 1%.
I have charts on all these.
I can go through it slow motion later on if you want to.
But that's 70% of GDP, right?
Real disposable income.
That's what you have to spend.
So consumption is 70% of the economy.
And that's down from 5% to 1%.
And then that leads you into the banking story, right?
The commercial real estate story.
And everybody's starting to see the tea leaves on this one.
It's not looking good.
steve bannon
Let's go ahead, let's go ahead and go, let's walk through the charts.
Let's go and do it.
I want people to see this.
Hey, the savings rate, all the cash from COVID's gone.
People have spent it all.
You've seen the crushing of the consumer.
You've seen the debt.
This is what we have done with debt.
It's one of our sponsors.
You've seen the credit cards.
I think it's 9.8 percent.
It's 1.3 trillion dollars of credit card debt at APRs north of 25.
The kids are gapping.
The decline in disposal income, they're gapping with the credit card.
The kids are forced to finance their debt even worse than the Secretary-Treasury Yellen is financing our debt with these short-term 90-day bills.
Walk me through your charts, brother.
dave brat
Yeah, well, what you just said is very important, right?
They're replacing the 10-year to get a little more liquidity in the markets with the short-term rates.
But in essence, what we're doing as a country is we're pushing off all the heavy lifting, right?
We're pushing off all the hard moves that adults in charge should make.
And so I see Denver looking.
Denver, just go to the one that says Fred up there.
Right there.
There's the savings rate.
There's the personal savings rate.
And again, right over time, what you see on most all the charts I put up and Bessett and the whole economic team here, There's a long-run scenario of personal savings rate at 10% for several decades and then when you look to the far right on that chart, look to the far right, we're at an all-time low, right?
Personal savings rate at 3.6.
So that's telling you something is very wrong.
The next chart, Denver.
Is the labor market taking a hit at the far right again?
You see the job gains way lower than expected.
All that feeds into the next chart, which is the most important.
This is just the quarterly drop from about 4 percent to 1.5 percent last quarter.
unidentified
Hello.
Hello.
dave brat
That's a killer.
That's a killer.
income to this quarter. But more significant than that is the year-over-year changes were down from 5% disposable
income growth a year ago down to 1% disposable income right now.
That's a bomb. That's the amount of money you have to spend.
That's a killer. That's the killer.
steve bannon
This is why they dropped the term Bidenomics.
Because they understand all these highfalutin concepts, and we got the Federal Reserve doing this percentage and that percentage.
It comes down to you have a lot less money in your pocket, and the dollars you got, the fiat currency you got, buys a lot less, buys 20% less.
The American people get that, okay?
And you can spin it with all the Paul Krugman op-eds that Scott Besson said, seven in a row, saying the American people don't get it, the numbers actually look great.
Well, no, that would be incorrect.
And all the numbers are funny because it's all propped up.
On federal spending, on debt, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
dave brat
And the next, Denver, this is what you just got done saying, Steve.
The next chart just rubs it in, right?
On this chart, I'll post all these on Brad Economics and Getter, but that green light up on the top, and you can read it right there on the chart, what it says, right?
This says the green line, how things are portrayed by Biden, the White House economist and the media.
The blue line is real, right?
Take out the pain from inflation.
You get the blue line, which is way below it.
That's how you feel, you know, with your real spending after stripping out inflation.
And then the bottom line, the brown line is going down.
That's your wages, right?
Just if you're the normal Joe, your wages are real wages are actually going down right now.
So that's a great graph.
You know, all of it brought to you by Zero Hedge as usual.
I just want to put this in context.
I'll read you a few quotes that I think the audience will love.
On the banking situation, let me start off with last week, an article in The Hill by Paul Kupiec, put together a lot of work.
His paper is really good.
He had to trim out some of the negative stuff to get it published in The Hill, I think, on the damage the Federal Reserve has done to us.
But the underlying paper is very powerful.
Here's from his paper.
In May 15, 2024, last week, Federal Reserve Vice Chairman for Supervision Mike Barr states, quote, overall, the banking system remains sound and resilient, in quotes.
Now, let me read you three real short quotes.
Bernanke in 2007.
Bernanke, the head of the Federal Reserve.
The impact on the broader economy and financial markets are the problems and subprime seems likely to be contained.
Nothing to see here.
No problem.
2008.
Again, Bernanke.
The Federal Reserve is not currently forecasting a recession.
Bernanke, 2011, quote, September and October of 2008 was the worst financial crisis in global history, including the Great Depression.
Right, so this is from the elites and the higher-ups.
They are doing everything they can right now to throw the damage into the future, as always.
That's what they always do.
It's always at the expense of the middle class.
It's always to favor the rich and the Wall Street cats.
That's why they're messing around with liquidity, and they're hurting the American people again.
And what you're going to see is a follow-up to the quotes I just read.
steve bannon
And the more they see a MAGA Trump victory, the more stuff they're going to have to do now.
That's what we got Brett on watching this.
Brett, real quickly, give me 30 seconds on lack of lack of focus on the Hill on not just defending President Trump, but getting it back to this lawfare and tearing it apart.
Your thoughts, sir.
dave brat
Yeah, well, it's awful, right?
The left has turned into Marxists.
They're no longer liberals.
So, you know, we should really focus like a laser beam there.
And that goes way back to FDR, right?
There's new news coming out.
It's nothing new to you, Steve.
I know your reading list.
But, you know, if the adults in the room, the Republicans, They have caused this for the past 30 years.
They have done nothing to create long-term economic growth.
They've done nothing to take the stiff medicine.
They won't message.
This is the rule of law taking down a president of the United States of America and there's still not an assault, right?
That Peter Navarro's in jail because of a Democrat committee where the Speaker of the House right now could put that committee back in order and fix everything immediately.
And then you had the health care piece with Naomi, right?
They've destroyed the health care piece.
And that one just makes it so transparent that money has got to be the driving force behind most all of this, right?
Big pharma, big health care, big banking, big tech.
Someone's getting paid somewhere because that's what drives D.C.
And the war room has exposed a ton of it.
The American people are starting to catch on to it, but it's the power politics of the elites that the border invasion, why is that?
Cheap labor for the elites versus brown, Hispanic, blue-collar workers across this country.
And so the word's getting out, the information's getting out.
Spread it.
steve bannon
Well, we got the word out.
Now it's to put the heat on these congressmen.
They're so pathetic and worthless.
Dave Brat, where do they go for all your charts?
Where do they go for your social media?
dave brat
Yep.
Brad Economics on Getter.
That's fun for you, Economist followers.
But much more importantly, it's spread every way, which way, that Steve Bannon and the War Room is delivered.
Share that with every single person on your email list.
Write op-eds in the newspapers.
He's the one with the urgency.
Steve never calls himself out, never gets any credit.
He's doing yeoman's work here on behalf of our Republic.
God bless you, Steve, and the War Room.
Keep it up.
steve bannon
Thank you, brother.
I got the easiest job in the world.
We just bring in brilliant people like yourself.
Thank you, brother.
unidentified
Yep, you bet.
dave brat
God bless.
steve bannon
Big War Room news today.
We're going to launch with the John Frederick Radio Network.
Officially, we've been doing kind of a test on Friday.
I think our date is.
We don't like missing these dates.
The Down and Dirty 7.30 a.m.
in Memphis, Tennessee.
Very proud.
The second station we've got in Tennessee.
Michael Patrick Lay and the team are there in Nashville.
We're going to be in Memphis here starting Friday in an official capacity.
The full John Frederick Slate of War Room.
Four hours a day of War Room.
I want to bring in Natalie Dominguez.
One of our favorite places is in Memphis, it's Graceland. Natalie from Home Title Lock,
do you have an update? Got about a minute here, hold you through the break. You have an update
on, I guess guys in Sub-Saharan Africa came close to stealing Graceland, ma'am? According to them,
unidentified
Nigeria, so for anyone that didn't see the update last week, basically scammers in Nigeria were
trying to steal Elvis's home, Graceland. Turns out the company, quote company, was
actually a scammer from Nigeria claiming to be part of a criminal network that targets the
dead and the elderly, particularly those in Florida and California, according to
them, using birth certificates and other identifying documents to discover personal
information about them and then use it to steal their stuff.
For anyone that doesn't know, all of these items are public record in the U.S.
and most of them are available online.
So a bunch of these news outlets reached out, and these scammers were like, we figure out how to steal, and that's what we do.
We've stolen millions from you blind fools in America, I'm quoting.
We sit back and laugh at you idiots.
Come and find us in Nigeria.
Tell me how scary it is that a company that was listed to exist in Missouri, with no business records on file, filed a deed of trust in LA with a notary stamp from Florida, and the notary was real but never filled out these documents, for a property in Tennessee, Graceland, and this just all slipped through our government's fingers.
And this all started back in September.
Hang on, we're going to take a short break.
steve bannon
You're going to walk me through that punch list.
Folks, they're so sophisticated.
The cyber combined with artificial intelligence.
It's so sophisticated.
short commercial break back in the warm in a moment okay um
i want to go back to that for a second By the way, Birch Gold, it's going to get more turbulent from here.
President Trump, I think, is going to go more on offense, talking about his amazing economic record.
Because water's gonna be much choppier because, hey, you got $35 trillion in debt now.
And they're into it all the time.
This is one of the reasons I think the government ought to be shut down the midnight of the 30th, just on cuts!
The 6% cuts we're talking about.
Collins yesterday said the senator, quote-unquote, Republican from Maine, oh, well, I don't agree with him.
We're not in any problem.
We've got to spend the money.
So the whole financial thing's upside down.
And just look at that spread between what Trump left you with the 10-year Treasury and what it is today.
That 400 basis points is one of the reasons your life sucks.
Do a credit card through everything.
Do a mortgage through everything.
And that's why they're not financing out 30s.
They're trying to do a short term.
Boom, boom, boom, boom.
This is, I've never seen anything like it.
It's like Finance 101 upside down.
Natalie Dominguez, this would be one of the people I just want you to go back.
And take it from the top and give me that mantra on a company of guys that were in Nigeria and doing this online from Nigeria.
Just walk me through what they accomplished.
unidentified
Yep.
So company from, you know, quote, company from Nigeria, ring of title thieves, scammers trying to steal Graceland saying that they're stealing a bunch of money, millions in dollars from blind fool Americans.
That's their quote.
The company was listed to exist in Missouri.
No business license on file in Missouri.
They filed a deed of trust in LA for a Tennessee home with a notary stamp from Florida and this just all slipped through our government's fingers.
None of this shouldn't have happened.
None of it should have happened in the first place.
steve bannon
Hold on.
Hang on.
Hang on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
It's not just a home.
It's not your castle out there in the audience.
It's Graceland.
unidentified
Yeah.
steve bannon
They didn't even check for that.
Do you think they didn't check the home of Elvis Presley?
One of the most iconic Americans in the history of this nation.
unidentified
Do you think they're going to check when it comes to you?
steve bannon
The sophistication...
is mind-numbing.
Where do they go right now?
I want everybody to go to home title lock and check it out because the Graceland situation proves the case that of how sophisticated these people are and how focused they are on getting your home and monetizing it for them, either a second mortgage or actually selling the thing.
So where do they go right now, Natalie?
unidentified
Absolutely, and just one more thing to say.
This all started back in September.
They stopped the sale the day before it was scheduled to be auctioned.
You think they're going to stop it when it's your home with these people online that they can't find in Nigeria?
Steve, they can go to our website, hometitlelock.com.
They're going to use the promo code warroom.
They can check on their title today.
They can sign up, get a free title scan, their first 30 days of protection for free, cancel anytime.
Our government isn't protecting us right now.
And like you said, their money is all up in other places.
They're not going to go through legislation changes to make this better.
Keep yourself, keep your family safe from cyber scammers.
steve bannon
Hang on, the only reason it was stopped is ourselves and other people in Memphis.
It was a firestorm of what's going on here.
That's the only reason.
It wouldn't have stopped by any government process.
It would have just stopped by outside parties going, yeah, go ahead.
unidentified
It was stopped because the judge said it was unique to Tennessee law because it's the second most visited house in America.
It brings the whole state tax money in.
That's why it was stopped.
So anyway, yeah, make sure your home isn't already compromised because you're not Graceland.
HomeTitleLock.com, promo code war room.
You can do that today.
steve bannon
Amazing.
I got a clip from, let me play this clip.
I got Peter McIlvenna.
I got Mike Lindell on my Cause of America pitch last night.
Do we have, do we have, can we play the Nigel clip?
Let's go and play it.
unidentified
And in over 20 years in the European Parliament, getting up, giving those speeches, being involved in those fights, I can tell you after 20 years there, I enjoyed it much more than they did.
steve bannon
Okay, I've followed, I've traipsed around with Rahim, you know, all the time with Nigel, brother McIlvenny.
I have never seen a crowd like that.
Now, you know British politics a thousand times better than I do.
Is that an extraordinary crowd for a guy standing for Parliament that just announced the day before, sir, and we're still six weeks out?
peter mcilvenna
We are still six weeks out.
Fourth of July.
And I've never seen that.
I mean, I grew up loving politics, following Northern Irish politics with the DUP, with Big Ian, Ian Paisley.
That's what I grew up in.
And looking up to these great orators.
These great speakers, great strategists, of which we don't have now.
And then Nigel steps back in the fold.
See, if I told you a couple of days before, I don't think he will run.
I don't think he wants to put himself forward.
He changed politics because of the Brexit vote.
Without him, we wouldn't have Brexit.
He led UKIP for 20 odd years.
And he has failed numerous times at the Westminster Parliament.
He has failed to be elected as an MP.
But his success as an MEP, his success with UK was a pressure group, has blown anything else out of the water that we have seen in the UK and shows you can make a difference without being an MP in Parliament.
Nigel of course has always wanted to be in Parliament and he should be in Parliament.
That would be a recognition for his service.
But he has failed time and time again.
This time is different.
And I watched his press conference and I thought, wow, Nigel does shake the scene up.
Political master.
He understands the mood.
And you see him there speaking at Clacton, which is on the southeast of England, a community that has been abandoned and left behind.
And it was a key Brexit vote whenever we had that.
And Nigel has stepped into that.
You see the huge crowds.
Just amazing.
I've never seen anything.
I mean, Rishi Sudhak doesn't get that.
No politician.
Maybe Boris might have got that at some point, but actually not announcing a day before and going into that it's mass adoration of the
unidentified
public and only Nigel can do that.
steve bannon
It's the 4th of July.
No, not four weeks out.
Ritchie Sunak couldn't draw that, you know, with his family, if he had his family out there and all the family members.
Peter, real quickly, where do they get the Hearts of Oak?
How do we get you on social media?
Because now you and Rahim, we're going to be covering this every day, the run-up to the British election, and I think the return of Nigel Farage, hopefully in Parliament.
peter mcilvenna
I believe so.
He'll change it and he will get in Parliament.
I think he will get in with dozens of MPs because everything now changes with Nigel.
So you can find Hearts Evoke at Hearts Evoke UK on Twitter, at Hearts Evoke on all the other social media platforms, heartsevoke.org, and of course streaming every Monday, Thursday and Saturday on War Room Rumble and Getter.
And we've got part of the War Room Posse coming up.
We've got Norbin Lattin coming up on Thursday, breaking down the WHO regulations that have
come into play.
And Steve, we've got one of your own, Mo herself.
Mo Bannon has joined us as well and she'll be with us in a couple of days.
So it's all good.
I love connecting with the Worm Posse.
What you're covering is awesome, Steve, and you're hitting all the buttons.
You're hitting all the right issues.
And it's great to be part of what you're doing.
steve bannon
Harwell at six is going to be on European parliamentary elections this weekend.
We're going to get down and dirty on that.
Thank you.
Captain Bannon will be on your show.
You're doing great work.
Thank you so much.
By the way, Nigel's giving up his show at GB News, so we'll be focused on Nigel every day.
Peter, thank you so much.
And by the way, we stream Hearts of Oak every time it's up on both Getter, my personal Getter account, the Worm Getter account, and on our Rumble channel.
So thank you, sir.
Appreciate it.
I might have to talk to you about that Ian Paisley comment.
We'll get back to that later.
Being an Irish, being from Southern Ireland, from the Irish Republic, as we call it, Ian Paisley always sends a jolt through me.
Mike Lindell, I was with the Cause of America last night.
I want to thank you.
What a great group about Trump Force 47.
Give me your thoughts about that and how we did last night.
mike lindell
Well, it was great.
It was the most honored call.
I do a call, everybody, every Monday night to the Cause of America.
We're in all 50 states.
Those leaders are always on the phone.
They reach out to over 300,000 people on the ground in all 50 states.
So you can always check out at causeofamerica.org.
But yeah, we had Steve on last night to speak to everybody about Trump Force 47.
It was the most we had on that call, I believe this year, for sure this year, Steve.
So you were a big draw.
And they loved what you said.
I know we kept you on for almost an hour.
He took phone calls, I mean, questions from everybody.
That was really gracious of you.
steve bannon
Great questions.
mike lindell
Yeah, and they were great questions.
There were concerns that everybody had, and I think you answered them real good.
We need to unite this country with the grassroots, everybody, and that's Trump Force 47.
That's what they're doing and getting everybody involved.
We get one shot at this, but you answered those questions great.
steve bannon
This is the way, and also I got some updates on Missouri.
People sent me some.
So we got some things to work on.
Let's say that the audience had some concerns and issues throughout the country and the grassroots movement.
We're going to jump into all of it.
Mike, your deal is on fire.
People love it.
Talk to me about today.
Where are we?
mike lindell
Well, we got two deals because I got on here a little early, everybody, and we didn't get the other deal taken down, so we're gonna honor that one, too.
But right now, you're getting a free, we're bringing this one back, free with any purchase, the Multi-Use MyPillow 2.0 and the USA Revival Roll and Go Cover, $59.98 value, free with any purchase, everybody.
Use promo code WARROOM.
Now, if you go to the website, And you're going to see that we still have the mattress sale, the memorial sale that was ending yesterday.
We haven't taken it down yet.
I'm going to honor it.
It's still up there.
There's the save 50% plus $100 off for the War Room Posse.
We will go down today, but we're going to extend it through today.
We didn't get it done in time.
Our loss is your gain and we have the MyPillow premiums there for $25.
These are the things that keep the factory going, by the way, that keep them all busy.
The 50% off the mattress toppers, that sale is going to go on for the War Room Posse.
Those are as low as $99.99.
And then the kitchen towels.
By the way, all the kitchen towels, a whole bunch of new colors and stuff came in.
Get those for $25 a set.
But get your order today.
You can take advantage of the free shipping on those mattresses.
We're extending it for today.
Today only.
And I take another $100 off besides the 50% off.
And then free my pillow 2.0.
steve bannon
Modern day holy war takes us out by Nicole no Grady back in a moment on Christian nationalism
unidentified
Okay, that's Nicole McGrady in modern-day holy war which is one of the
steve bannon
The um...
Organizing Principles of War Room.
Now bringing in Clay Clark, which you've put together this operation to go around the country and basically have, I guess, I would call them Chautauquas, which have been amazing.
Clay, first off, do you believe we're actually in a modern-day holy war, sir?
clay clark
Absolutely!
It's called the Great Reset.
steve bannon
The Great Reset could just be a material thing.
Why is it a spiritual and a holy war?
clay clark
Well, if you open the book of Daniel, Daniel had a prophecy that there would be a time where we would mix the miry clay with the iron.
It was called the fourth kingdom.
So Daniel had a vision from God.
There would come a time called the fourth kingdom where there would be an attempt to mix the miry clay with the iron or man with machine.
Now, Klaus Schwab had this vision for this thing called the fourth industrial revolution where he wants to mix man with machine.
That plan and agenda And on transhumanism, why is that satanic?
Walk me through that.
We're opposed to it non-stop.
and others, they're wanting to mix man with machine.
They call this transhumanism.
I think Joe Allen's done a great job covering it.
So I believe it is a satanic agenda called the Great Reset.
steve bannon
And on transhumanism, why is that satanic?
Walk me through that.
We're opposed to it nonstop, I wanna know your theory about why it's satanic.
clay clark
Well, okay, Elon Musk as an example, he was speaking at Neuralink and he was saying that,
he says, we presume that the signals that you would receive to your brain would be consensual.
He's saying we presume that these signals we could send to your brain would be consensual.
So think about this for a second, Steve.
I mean, what if you didn't have freedom of thought?
I mean, I don't even know that I would want anybody out there to be in my brain.
I mean, today we're getting ready to take the, you know, Reawaken America tour into Detroit, Michigan.
My brain is filled with a lot of details.
Your brain is filled with a lot of details.
You just said the word Chautauqua.
I have no idea what that word means.
And so imagine that somebody could control your thoughts and it would keep you from saying Chautauqua simply because I don't know what Chautauqua means.
Or imagine that somebody could keep my brain from thinking about how we can get Peter Navarro confirmed to speak at the next reawakened while he's still in prison.
I mean, these are all these thoughts, and God has given us the authority.
God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
And if you take away the ability for the average human to have a sound mind, and you can control their thoughts, to me, God has given us the spirit of love.
Where the spirit of the Lord is, there's freedom.
And where Satan is, there's ultimate control.
And so I believe that the transhumanism agenda is the ultimate form of control, and I believe it is absolutely Luciferian.
steve bannon
The Reawakened Tour, though, aren't your roots back to the days of people going around with the Revival Movement, which was, I think, the second or third Great Awakening in this country in the 1920s, you know, right around the time of Prohibition, that people were awakened after the First World War.
Aren't the roots of your ministry and the roots of what you're doing with this Reawakened Tour, doesn't it go back, doesn't it harken back to those days?
clay clark
Well, you know, Steve, I wish I would have had a strategic plan to go back to the days of the tent revivals.
What happened is, you know, we booked the Reawaken America tour to be in Oregon and every single venue canceled.
This is a true story.
Every venue, every venue that I paid, they canceled.
And so we ended up hosting the event on the parking lot of a minor league baseball stadium.
So I had to spend over $700,000, that's a real number, to build this massive venue.
And then the local colleges shut down in protest, Target shut down in protest.
The local big box retail store shut down in protest.
And so people say, man, this reminds me of a tent revival.
And I'm thinking to myself, I don't want that memory.
That was $700,000.
I would much rather rent a venue and have this thing climate controlled.
Batavia, New York thought General Flynn was just too hot.
To handle, I mean, we've had so many venues cancel because what Peter Navarro is saying, what General Flynn is saying, what you are saying, and by the way, I have to trick you into attending one of our Reawaken America tour events, but what you guys are saying is so hot, it's so true, it's so powerful that the deep state, the globalists, the Marxists, the godless communists, they have to censor that message.
And so what they try to do with our events is they try to censor us by putting pressure
on the venue to cancel because they wanna say that our events are a threat to democracy
and that sort of thing.
And so unfortunately we've had a lot of venues canceled but this one we're doing June 7th and 8th
in Detroit, Michigan.
We have 17 tickets left for this one.
June 7th and 8th in Detroit, Michigan.
We have a strong church willing to host the event there.
And so we're going to have Eric Trump, Laura Trump, Alina Haba, Kash Patel.
So many wonderful friends of the band in War Room are going to be there on the stage.
70 speakers over two days.
And to put an emphasis on it, Exclamation point on the movement.
You can always name your price to our events.
So I'm not attacking any other events that have to charge a certain price.
I get it.
But General Flynn and I were galvanized around the thought, if we don't save this republic, it's over.
So we let people name their price.
And every time that we have a shortfall or a budget deficit, my wife and I cover the expenses with our other companies.
So everybody out there, you can afford to go.
Detroit, Michigan, June 7th and 8th.
steve bannon
Where do they go right now?
I want people to go to the website.
Where do they go to find out more information?
clay clark
Yeah, you go to Timetofreeamerica.com.
Timetofreeamerica.com.
And unlike any other event you've ever seen, the doors open up at 6 a.m.
and General Flynn and I are there in the lines to greet you at 6 a.m.
We kick off at 8 a.m.
We go non-stop.
There's literally 74 confirmed speakers.
Including Eric Trump, Laura Trump, Kash Patel.
And we really break down the velvet rope and the lines of celebrity conservatism.
And we let all the attendees meet the speakers.
We let the speakers meet the attendees.
We have baptisms on Friday night.
It's gonna be an awesome event.
I'm telling you, Steve, if you haven't been to one of these, it's like a revival.
Steve, we've got one more coming up in North Carolina.
has told me, he said, Clay, the only thing that's in the category of this energy is a
Trump rally.
So I'd say we're finishing second with the enthusiasm.
But we have to trick you, Steve.
Steve, we've got one more coming up in North Carolina.
unidentified
We've got to have you there.
steve bannon
We'd be honored to do that.
I've got to ask you, when you're on MSNBC and CNN, when they're going off the Reawakening tour, are they saying, oh, these guys are Christian nationalists, these are bad guys, they're distorting the word of Christ, they're distorting Christianity.
In fact, Trump is their leader and Trump is the worst person in the world and the least Christian person in the world.
Your response to that, Clay?
clay clark
Well, one is I am a Christian, and I am in favor of this nation, so I am not an atheist globalist, okay?
So I am a Christian, I am in favor of this nation.
I also do believe that President Donald J. Trump was anointed and appointed for this time.
He's not a perfect person, but if you read the Bible and you look at the life of Saul, Saul used to feed Christians to lions before God revealed himself to Saul, knocked Saul off his horse, and then Saul wrote 13 books of the New Testament, some say 14, he changed his name to Paul, And to my knowledge, President Trump has never fed Christians to lions.
To my knowledge, he's not ever done something that nefarious.
I mean, President Trump is just a wonderful person doing the best he can do to save this country.
But God arrested his attention and God grabbed President Donald J. Trump's attention.
And I believe the Holy Spirit has filled the heart of President Donald J. Trump and has given him an unreasonable love for this country.
And rather than enjoying his late 70s sipping Mai Tais from Mar-a-Lago, he's out there fighting every single day to save this country.
He's putting everything into this revival.
I believe that Trump is a trumpet.
He is waking up the American people.
He is waking up people to fake news, to the deep state.
And if it wasn't for the devotion of President Donald J. Trump, I think a lot of people, myself included, would have never woken up to the corruption that exists.
So all I can say is I pray every single day that Donald J. Trump, who is not an infallible person, will be filled with the Holy Spirit, and that he will have the courage, the energy, and the bravery to continue pushing forward.
Because I believe if we do not save this republic here during this next election, it's over for America.
And I'm not saying that as hyperbole.
I've got five wonderful kids.
I've created this incredible money-losing machine called the Reawaken America Tour, and the reason why I'm doing it, and I know the reason why you're hosting your show...
It's because we have got to save this republic.
So everybody out there today, my call to action would be one, go to TimeToFreeAmerica.com, get your tickets, TimeToFreeAmerica.com, June 7th and 8th, Detroit, Michigan.
And two, pray for President Donald J. Trump.
Pray out loud, pray with enthusiasm, pray till you embarrass the neighbors, pray in your car, pray in your shower.
Continue praying for President Donald J. Trump because he is the only thing standing in the way of the full implementation of Klaus Schwab's Great Reset.
steve bannon
Can you feel, when you're doing the Great Awakening tour, do you feel this Great Awakening is being driven by the Holy Spirit?
clay clark
Absolutely.
I can tell you this, Steve, I don't want to do the Reawaken tour.
It's not something I ever wanted to do.
As a general rule, I side with shows like yours where you want to end the Fed.
I side with libertarians.
I find myself being a huge fan of limited government.
I'm so tired of fake conservatives.
I love people that actually take action.
So when you talk about action, action, action, that's my mindset.
And Steve, that's why I'm self-employed.
And so I find myself getting involved here, not because I want to, but because I think our nation requires me to.
I think our nation requires everybody who's watching this to do something, to use your time, treasure, and talent to save this nation.
And I just know that when the lockdowns began, I had a podcast that had hit number one on iTunes six times in the category of business called The Thrive Time Show.
And my listeners were saying to me, what are we supposed to do to run a successful company?
And my working theory was, it's hard to be open if you're forced to be closed.
And so I tried to expose the idea that the models that said that 2.2 million people would die from COVID, those were false.
I tried to expose that the polymerase chain reaction tests could be falsely calibrated.
To inflate the number of cases.
And I tried to share the truth that COVID was treatable with Budesonide, Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine.
And I thought that my weekly town halls and suing the mayor of Tulsa to keep our city open would be enough.
But then it kept happening.
The lockdowns kept happening.
I met General Flynn at one of our events, and we both had a spiritual connection.
It was almost like we had known each other for decades, but we had just met.
And General Flynn tapped me on the shoulder.
He looked me in the eye.
He pointed at me and he said, Sir, you are a true believer, aren't you?
And I said, I don't know what that means.
What do you mean?
He says, I mean, you're willing to die for your country, aren't you?
And I said, absolutely.
And that's when General Flynn and I really connected.
And I feel that General Flynn's being called by God.
I know that you're being called by God, Steve.
I know that I'm being called by God because it's a calling.
The word vocation means calling.
The word vacation means to retreat from.
I don't have a desire to retreat at all from these things.
I feel like I'm being called and being pulled into this fight to save America.
And I hope everybody out there understands that courage is more contagious than COVID-19.
So if you're watching this right now, I encourage you to ask God today how he can use your time, treasure, and talent to save this nation, because the Bannon War Room nation is so massive.
And if everybody out there will just take action, action, action, and will use your time and treasure and talent to save this nation, it can be saved.
But it's going to require every single listener to leave it all on the field.
We've got to save this republic, Steve.
steve bannon
Clay, one more time, where did they go for the tour this weekend?
clay clark
Absolutely.
Go to Timetofreeamerica.com.
Timetofreeamerica.com.
There's 17 tickets left.
Timetofreeamerica.com.
I'm telling you folks, it's 70 speakers over two days.
You can name your price.
And Steve, I'm honored to be on your show.
Thank you for lowering your standards to allow me to be here with your listeners.
I thank you for all that you do.
unidentified
I really do appreciate you, sir.
steve bannon
You guys are amazing.
Clay, thank you so much for jumping in here.
I know you guys are busy getting ready for getting the tent ready.
clay clark
That's right.
todd bensman
Thanks a lot, Steve.
steve bannon
Fantastic.
Thanks, brother.
Todd Bensman's with us.
Todd, you've got a minute here.
We're holding you through the break.
Today, first off, before we talk about this sham today on signing, because we forced him into this about the invasion, he gave a mass amnesty 48 hours ago, 72 hours ago.
Tell us about the 325,000 mass amnesty that Biden just gave.
todd bensman
Right.
Well, actually, this isn't something that's new.
They've been doing this all along for several years, clearing the pipelines of immigration cases, usually removal cases, deportations.
They've removed, dismissed, meaning hundreds of thousands of these cases to sort of clear the backlog, so to speak, but also just to let them hear.
And it has the net effect of Freeing them from the fear of deportation.
They're in proceedings, right?
They didn't show up for their hearing or they've been, they've exercised all of their appeals and there's a final removal order coming.
So instead of, you know, we don't want to create fear for these immigrants, these illegal aliens here in the country.
So they're just dismissing them.
At least 350,000 from October 2022.

Hang on for one second.
steve bannon
Short break.

We're talking about this executive order next.

Okay, I want to talk about, by the way, the flag shirt.
We're trying to get Steve Stern up and talk about everything he's doing in the grassroots.
Talk about lawfare, while we get focused.
Just breaking, in Wisconsin, Attorney General Josh Call Felony forgery charges against Cheese Bro, the President's lawyer, Jim Tropas, a President's lawyer, two President Trump lawyers, and Mike Roman, one of our key guys, the Mike Roman.
Felony charges.
Forgery charge, felony.
They're off the chain when it comes to lawfare.
And Megyn Kelly's right and people are right.
And still, until we start firing back, it's going to continue on.
That's where the show started with MTG today.
It's going to continue on.
To show you how bogus this all is, is your Being a force multiplier and getting the word out there when the media wouldn't cover it, of everything we did on the border, of everything we did down there in Gap, of everything we did with every town, a border town, and all of it, and led by Todd Bensman.
Today, Biden's going to sign an executive order to try to show people, oh, I'm doing something, closing the border.
But it's a complete, obviously, total hypocrisy.
Not just that, when you look at the details of it, as Bensman does, it's totally performative.
Nothing's really going to change.
Todd Bensman, walk me through.
And we're going to livestream this at 2 p.m.
today.
Grace and Mo will have it up there.
We'll livestream it.
I'll hopefully jump in and get us some meetings before the 5 o'clock show and give some commentary.
This is just in-your-face hypocrisy.
Todd Bensman.
todd bensman
Well, follow me here for a minute.
I think that the executive action that they're going to sign today, the orders they're going to sign today, has a lot to do with the Lankford bill.
The failed, twice now, failed Lankford bill for supposed border security, which did the opposite of border security and got killed for it.
But the Democrats and the Biden campaign got a ton of traction out of that thing by using it to blame the Republicans for wanting to keep the border open as a festering wound that Trump can run on.
That narrative is huge out there on the other side of the issue.
So what the Biden people are doing next is they're going to propose this executive order that they know is going to get sued on right away.
And then they'll go into negotiations and settle and they'll say, well, if only we had this bill, the Republicans just, you know, thwarted us again on the Lankford bill.
It's their fault that I can't close the border.
Now, the details in the executive order are, according to the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal, and I mean, it's not out yet, we haven't read it, but what they're saying is that there is a clause in there that allows the president to use 212F.
This is the presidential authority that allows a president, any president, to stop 100% of all immigrants illegally crossing and thrown back into Mexico without giving them asylum.
The administration knows they're going to get sued immediately.
That within 10 minutes, those lawsuits are going to fly and they're going to be all gummed up.
And they'll be saying, watch this.
They're going to be saying, well, if only the Lankford bill had passed.
The Republicans keep killing the one solution.
steve bannon
But that's not going to have any traction.
Isn't there in the small print here that if somebody says, hey, I'm afraid to go back to Mexico, nothing happens?
todd bensman
That's right.
Remember, the way to actually stop illegal immigration is To stop releasing them in the interior of the country, quit giving them asylum.
So they're saying, we're going to close the border down after it's over 2,500 crossings.
And by closing the border, they're saying, we're going to use 2212F and throw them back.
Unless they say they're afraid to go back, and then we'll let them in.
So even if there's no lawsuit.
Right, so it's very performative.
steve bannon
We're going to cover this at two, hopefully we'll get you back on at five if you're free.
Until then, social media, your books, your writings, you've been on top of this, this mass amnesty coming right in the face of this.
This is a perverse joke.
Where do people go to get all your stuff?
todd bensman
Right, cis.org, Center for Immigration Studies, and also toddbensman.com.
It's got all my social media.
And you can sign up for my newsletter there, too.
steve bannon
Todd, you've been amazing.
Hopefully get you back here at 5.
2 o'clock today he's going to sign this executive order.
Pure performative politics when we have a crisis of 10 to 15 million illegal alien invaders.
Just shot a couple of cops the other day.
Every day is a disaster.
Every day is a nightmare.
And this is what they're coming up with.
Todd Bensman, thank you so much, brother, for coming on here.
The reason I'm forced to do this, the reason I'm forced to do this is, is, the reason I'm forced to do this is, uh, is, uh, is this audience.
I'm getting pressure on it.
