court decision on presidential immunity. Judge Aileen Cannon in Florida is now granting the | |
| former president's request to postpone some deadlines in his classified documents case | ||
| to consider how the Supreme Court's ruling could impact the proceedings. Is there any | ||
| mechanism at all to push these cases forward or is it all on hold for the foreseeable future | ||
| as the immunity impact is sorted? | ||
| It's on hold because Judge Machon, who is on the Manhattan DA's Office hush money case, had to delay sentencing because it's a legitimate argument that the defense is making that, you know, we have to file a motion to set aside the verdict on this new decision. | ||
| So he has to take that seriously. | ||
| He has to give the Manhattan DA's Office time to respond. | ||
| And so, therefore, the sentencing had to be adjourned. | ||
| I'm confident that Judge Michon and the New York Appellate Courts will probably find that the motion should not be, the verdict should not be set aside. | ||
| I'm not so confident that if it makes its way back to Supreme Court, they will agree. | ||
| So this is a very big decision. | ||
| Also, just for the future, a future president who basically now can use DOJ, according to this decision, to weaponize and go against opponents. | ||
| If you read this decision, it makes it clear that presidents have a lot of power now, particularly they are in exclusive control of the Department of Justice. | ||
| Everything this country has always been against and opposed to and offended by. | ||
| by. How is what is happening in the country that he's ahead? | ||
|

|
Well, I mean, first of all, don't don't overestimate us. | |
| There were always people in this country who talked about America first when what they meant was we actually like dictators abroad and we don't want to help Democrats abroad. | ||
| There were always people in this country who liked one form of inequality or another. | ||
| We have plenty of skeletons in our historical closet. | ||
| And Mr. Trump comes out of that closet. | ||
| He represents Um, a kind of worship of wealth, which is perhaps ill-gained. | ||
| He, he represents the sense that white people, um, are the ones who actually struggle in this, in this country and not everybody else. | ||
| He represents things which are also historically American. | ||
| How he could be in the lead. | ||
| I mean, we also were a country for better or worse of, of short memories. | ||
| I think folks are having often a hard time remembering where, where Trump left off and where Biden began. | ||
| I think Biden is a victim in a way of his own success, because he came in and without a lot of fanfare and with a lot without a lot of self praise, reversed the recession, got us out of COVID, restored order to our foreign policy, passed a huge amount of landmark domestic policy, such that the country is now so normal, that I think Americans I mean, not that not A lot of people are suffering and we still have great problems with wealth inequality, school access, lots of other things. | ||
| But we are now at, I think it's fair to say, we're at like 2018, 2019, 2020 or better levels of normality. | ||
| But Biden has kind of paid for that, right? | ||
| Because now we feel like, oh, well, maybe we could throw the dice again with this fellow Trump. | ||
| Weird way, bizarre way, being indicted four times and being found guilty by a jury for crimes has helped Donald Trump. | ||
| It's helped him in his polling numbers, which is very strange. | ||
| Normally, if someone's been convicted of a crime, it's sort of their life is ruined. | ||
| This has helped Donald Trump. | ||
| And also just the delaying of the other cases. | ||
| So it's worked for him in terms of all of the motions that his lawyers have filed. | ||
| Do you see it as delaying justice? | ||
| It's delaying justice. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies. | ||
| It's very serious, this Supreme Court case. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Pray for our enemies. | |
| Because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| You're not going to get 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. | ||
|
unidentified
|
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? | ||

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. Bannon. | |
| Dave Brack in the War Room with Stephen K. Bannon, July 8, Year of Our Lord, 2024. | ||
| Out of respect and honor for Steve Bannon. | ||
| He's got the sign of the cross behind him. | ||
| I've gotten a lot of expressions of goodwill and love toward Steve from his Catholic brothers and sisters. | ||
| And so we're opening every show in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. | ||
| Everything I say that comes out of my mouth on this show will be the absolute truth. | ||
| Steve used to get irritated at me if I ever showed up without the receipts. | ||
| So it's not good enough to have even solid answers. | ||
| He wanted proof that the answers were true and accurate. | ||
| And the war room still proceeds with that philosophy. | ||
| And so let me answer, the cold open was great. | ||
| Nicole Wallace was just dumbfounded. | ||
| What is going on in this country? | ||
| She's very sad about what's going on in this country. | ||
| And all political views are my own, but these are not political. | ||
| These are the biggest issues and the left just still does not seem to be aware of any of these basic issues. | ||
| So the RNC committee came out with the three big issues today. | ||
| I'm going to go over those. | ||
| The war room, by the way, led the field on all of those for the last four years. | ||
| So no surprise there to all of you. | ||
| But what is happening in the U.S.? | ||
| Nicole, here's what's happening. | ||
| Here's the big deal. | ||
| Here's why there's a populist movement across the world. | ||
| It's not a conspiracy. | ||
| 10% of the American's wealthiest people own 90% of the stocks and the bonds and the assets. | ||
| Not only that, right, the magnificent seven, the giant firms this year, the top five firms took about 60% of all the returns. | ||
| So that's the billionaire class. | ||
| The left, the liberals, Nicole maybe used to be a liberal, the left used to care about income distribution. | ||
| That's what's called when the rich 10% own 90% of everything, let that sink in. | ||
| So the rest of the country owns nothing. | ||
| Half the country, on the economic segments I used to cover, half the country doesn't have a retirement account. | ||
| Let that sink in. | ||
| Right? | ||
| So how's that going? | ||
| So what's the last answer? | ||
| Border invasion. | ||
| That's coming up in the show. | ||
| We've got everybody weighing in on that. | ||
| What else is going on for Nicole that she may not be aware of? | ||
| In the city of Chicago, liberals used to care about kids. | ||
| In the city of Chicago, the poor kids in the third grade, only 12% can read at grade level. | ||
| And so that's not a promising future, right? | ||
| Conservative policy for years and years and years has wanted to fundamentally transform those schools so that these kids can get an education and have a future. | ||
| So, Nicole, that's number two. | ||
| Number three, on the jobs front, the left won't dare touch any of this, but all the jobs created and all the jobs reports are all government jobs. | ||
| More than that, Zero Hedge, I got all this stuff posted out on Brad Economics for years and years and months and months. | ||
| All the new jobs are part-time for this year. | ||
| All of them. | ||
| The full-time jobs are down. | ||
| It's a nice little red bar going down. | ||
| All the part-time jobs going up. | ||
| All the new jobs. | ||
| Finally, all the new jobs in the last four years have gone to foreign-born workers. | ||
| So this may be why all of these three things I just mentioned Maybe why African-American voters and Hispanic voters and the young kids are all taking another look and going, what's going on here? | ||
| All right, so now it becomes just a messaging contest. | ||
| The left on messaging, and I'm just, you know, I was in Congress way back when, and it was stunning on the messaging that every newspaper, every media source, I was on all the big ones, right? | ||
| The CNNs and the NBCs and whatever. | ||
| And all they would ever ask you about is the politics. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Hey, does someone in the Freedom Caucus disagree with someone else? | ||
| What about the Speaker of the House? | ||
| So they start you off talking about politics and the petty stuff, and they won't address the big issues. | ||
| And so our leadership never responded, right? | ||
| The leadership never came out with the big three. | ||
| So today, it's somewhat promising The RNC platform committee came out with a big three, and there's no shocker, all political views are my own, just going over the big three. | ||
| The border invasion, no shocker there. | ||
| Inflation, right? | ||
| Inflation up over 20% in the past few years, 30% in the past seven years. | ||
| So that's Over 20% of all the money in your pocket, you've lost 20 cents of every dollar, for real. | ||
| And it not only applies to the dollar in your pocket, it applies to your entire retirement account. | ||
| If you got $100,000 in there, guess what it's going to buy tomorrow when you pull it out? | ||
| $80,000 worth of stuff. | ||
| So inflation is a hidden tax and it's theft. | ||
| And the Federal Reserve knows it's theft, and they've been propping up the stock market. | ||
| The rich are getting richer. | ||
| Did I mention the top 10% own 90% in the coal? | ||
| That's why the left is very sad. | ||
| It doesn't matter what they do. | ||
| All they do is kick the can down the road. | ||
| Now we have a terrible economy facing us. | ||
| The third issue, by the way, is making the U.S. | ||
| strong again. | ||
| The endless wars. | ||
| Back when I was in office, no wars. | ||
| Now we have four wars raging and 14 hotspots raging. | ||
| You saw retired Colonel John Mills last week on the show outline all 14. | ||
| I highly recommend you show that to the young kids as they get ready for this draft language emerging in the media as well. | ||
| Finally, a couple added points here in the opening. | ||
| Ray Dalio, a billionaire. | ||
| The billionaires, I think, I think they are worth more than one vote, right? | ||
| Because they're billionaires and they've been treated that way forever by the elites. | ||
| But they're just one vote, they're just one person, and they should be treated as such, and their opinions should be treated as such. | ||
| Ray Dalio just lobs everyone in and says, Biden and Trump, you know, the millennials are to blame for this type of leadership, or some crazy thesis like that. | ||
| What Ray Dalio might have missed is that President Trump, I don't know of another human being who could sustain what he's been through. | ||
| Right? | ||
| So he stood toe to toe with China, Xi Jinping, He stood toe-to-toe with Russia. | ||
| The whole Russia hoax is three years of our intelligence failures and frauds. | ||
| He stood toe-to-toe with the rest of the world, kept peace, and brought us prosperity. | ||
| And so I don't know what you're getting at there, Ray. | ||
| Maybe you want to spell out how someone else could have done better. | ||
| No other politician could have withstood China, Russia, the CIA, the entire mainstream media. | ||
| Day one, the day after Trump stepped in as president, the Washington Post nukes him. | ||
| Day one. | ||
| Hadn't even done anything yet. | ||
| And the Washington Post is out to remove him from office. | ||
| Again, animal farm. | ||
| It looks like some of the animals think they're a little more special than the rest of us thought normal animals. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And so very interesting days ahead. | ||
| I'll throw in one other thing. | ||
| The left seems to be hung up with this term of fascism. | ||
| They want to call us classical conservatives fascists. | ||
| I'm a Presbyterian economist. | ||
| I resent that. | ||
| No fascism on this side of the football. | ||
| The other side of the football is a little more interesting. | ||
| We want a smaller government. | ||
| We want all powers. | ||
| Chevron, hello, can you say Chevron? | ||
| We want all powers returned to the states where they belong in the original constitutional setup when we used to have a country. | ||
| The left wants centralized power, no matter what you call it. | ||
| Socialism, they call it. | ||
| It's cute, right? | ||
| But it's still government owns the means of production. | ||
| It's Karl Marx. | ||
| Karl Marx said we need this intermediate stage of socialism before we get to full on heavy duty stuff, communism. | ||
| And then the left throws in this term fascism. | ||
| Fascism refers primarily to Mussolini and Hitler. | ||
| Hitler was a part of the Nationalist Socialist Party. | ||
| And so that it doesn't square. | ||
| And so we on the war room, we resent this name calling, right? | ||
| We do not want this huge centralized power that the left insists on. | ||
| The left wants more and more and more power. | ||
| And we do not. | ||
| And every step of the way, we fought that fight, right? | ||
| It's the socialists, the communists, the Chinese government is now smaller than the United States government sector. | ||
| That cannot stand. | ||
| The War Room is very proud of its record on these three fundamental issues over the years. | ||
| We're going to be right back on The War Room with some great guests. | ||
| We got a rock and show lineup right back on The War Room. | ||
|

|
War Room. | |
| Stick down the CCD! | ||
| War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Dave Bratton, War Room, with Stephen K. Bannon, and it's our honor to have a very special guest in with us again. | ||
| We got to host him last week, but ran out of time to treat his serious subject sufficiently. | ||
| And so, Supreme Court Judge Gableman from Wisconsin, welcome back on the show. | ||
| And if you just want to start at the top, because you're covering a very important issue, so just give the War Room posse who may not have heard any of this yet, The building blocks of what's going on likely again in the U.S. | ||
| of A. Thank you, Judge, very much for joining us. | ||
| As a former justice and a former judge, I am extraordinarily grievously concerned by the opinion released by the Wisconsin Supreme Court last Friday. | ||
| It really victimizes a lot of people and it victimizes people by Not just paving the way for illegal drop boxes. | ||
| These drop boxes can be anything. | ||
| There's no regulations. | ||
| In fact, the dissent in this opinion correctly points out this lawless opinion of the four leftist ladies who now run the state Supreme Court in Wisconsin are purely driven in this opinion by politics and their desire to see Uh, drop boxes used because I think they view it as beneficial to the Democratic Party. | ||
| I said victim and I use that word on purpose. | ||
| It victimizes a lot of people who can be broken down into two broad categories of individuals. | ||
| The first group are those of us, everyone who's concerned about election security and election integrity. | ||
| This opinion, thanks to the four leftists who now run the Wisconsin Supreme Court, elections in Wisconsin are a lot less secure and have a lot less integrity than they did just a few days ago. | ||
| Two years ago, our Wisconsin Supreme Court declared these drop boxes to be illegal for good reason. | ||
| They're not authorized by the statute. | ||
| The second category... Stop there, Judge. | ||
| Say that again. | ||
| That's a big deal. | ||
| Say that last line again so everybody gets a good read on this. | ||
| It is a big deal that just two years ago, our Wisconsin Supreme Court, in the Teigen decision, declared that ballot drop boxes are illegal because they are not authorized by law. | ||
| The law does not authorize ballot drop boxes, and nothing has changed Except for the composition of the court, the left picked up one more seat in the most recent election, so they now have a 4-3. | ||
| There are seven members of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, so the left now controls it. | ||
| And I make a distinction. | ||
| Not all Democrats are leftists. | ||
| People who are concerned about the integrity of the law and about our courts having any confidence, enjoying any confidence by the people, ought to be really repulsed and offended by this opinion. | ||
| They really, the four leftists who are now running the Wisconsin Supreme Court, created a complete fiction. | ||
| Now, this is a perfect example of why our country absolutely needs President Trump's plan For election integrity to go into effect, to protect people, to protect our citizens from people like this who would debase our elections, who would take away the security. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And to that point as well, not only was the decision not found in the law, but it doesn't pass the common sense test. | ||
| So when folks throw ballots into a box, The chain of custody is broken for those ballots, but it calls into question the whole box. | ||
| What's the history on that one? | ||
| Well, let me tell you, for the leftists who control the Wisconsin Supreme Court now, did everybody a favor. | ||
| For all of your viewers, all of our listeners who are interested, you don't have to read all 51 pages. | ||
| You don't have to be learned in the law to understand the great defect, the lawlessness of this opinion. | ||
| You just have to be able to read and you don't have to read all 51 pages. | ||
| You can read pages 11 and 12 of the majority opinion and page 13 of the dissent. | ||
| Because here's what the four leftists did. | ||
| They said that the clerk who runs the election in the local community in Wisconsin, we have 1852 clerks approximately. | ||
| The clerk is a person. | ||
| Okay, so far, I'm with you. | ||
| The clerk is a person. | ||
| A relatively straightforward proposition. | ||
| But then, the four leftists transfer that to say, because a clerk wants to put out a dropbox, or presumably a brown paper bag in an abandoned field somewhere, That delivery of the absentee, and remember absentee voting is a privilege. | ||
| It is not a constitutional right. | ||
| So therefore it is and properly is more highly regulated. | ||
| So on page 11, the majority says, well, the clerk is a person. | ||
| Great. | ||
| But then we turn the page to page 12 and the majority says, well, because of the clerk is a person. | ||
| Pretty much any receptacle that the clerk designates as a place for people to put absentee ballots is valid, is a lawful and legal scheme, including now, and this happened in Wisconsin. | ||
| This happened in Wisconsin in 2020. | ||
| That the Zuckerberg paid political agents who were embedded. | ||
| That's their word, not mine. | ||
| They paid the five largest cities in our state $10 million, north of $10 million. | ||
| And one of the things that bought Mark Zuckerberg was to be able to put his political agents and strategists into the clerk's offices in our five largest cities. | ||
| And what they would do is they would identify which voters had received absentee ballots from the clerk's | ||
| offices but had not yet returned the ballot. And then they did, they took another step in a | ||
| very cynical use of racial politics. | ||
| They then identified African-American voters because the statistics all show it. | ||
| Pew Research tells us, and every other study that's been done, when African-Americans vote, they tend to vote 86% of the time for the Democrat candidate. | ||
| And so what did these clerks allow to happen? | ||
| Agents, in some cases, many cases, paid for by Mark Zuckerberg, actually went to the homes of these African-American people who had requested absentee ballots. | ||
| And these agents were able to knock on the door and say, we're from the city, because they were technically embedded with the city clerk's office, with the clerk's office. | ||
| And we see you've requested the absentee ballot, but you haven't returned it. | ||
| We'd be happy to help you fill it out. | ||
| And if you want, and now what the four leftists who are running our state Supreme Court have done, Now what they can do again is they can say, and we'll take your ballots for you, we'll take them to the clerk's office. | ||
| Because after all, as long as the clerk says it's okay, according to this opinion. | ||
| Now I said there were three pages, and I talked about two. | ||
| Page 13 from the dissent quite correctly points out that if you return an absentee ballot to a person, such as a clerk, Right, right. | ||
| actually requires a person to person transfer of the ballot, not a person to inanimate objects, | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| such as ballot drop box or brown paper bag or cardboard box at the end of the drive. | ||
| Exceptional summary, Judge. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| And now give people, what can they do? | ||
| You laid it out. | ||
| It's overwhelmingly cynical. | ||
| All of us patriots, we just went through the 4th of July. | ||
| This cannot stand. | ||
| What do people do in closing? | ||
| How do people reach you? | ||
| And what do folks do? | ||
| Racinerecall.org. | ||
| Racine, R-A-C-I-N-E, recall.org. | ||
| That's all about our current Speaker of the Assembly. | ||
| He's the one who's protecting the Wisconsin Elections Commission, which is facilitating all of these illegal and fraudulent election practices. | ||
| And everything has remained in place from when Joe Biden was declared the winner of Wisconsin in 2020, which I believe I concluded after my investigation, 132 page report, not one word of which has been shown to be inaccurate, that if it had not been for all of the illegal, improper, fraudulent ballots, fraudulently received, that Donald Trump certainly would have been declared the winner. | ||
| We got it. | ||
| We got to hit it again. | ||
| But thanks for laying out the case, the process, the law, what we can do about it, calling the war rooms attention to it. | ||
| Huge issues for us going forward. | ||
| It's not all over. | ||
| We need to be vigilant. | ||
| Everybody needs to work. | ||
| Stephen K. Bannon said, don't send cards, go to work. | ||
| And you just heard a case as to why you should be very vigilant when it comes to the upcoming elections across the country. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, I'm here. | |
| Supreme Court Judge Gaiman just laid it out as clear as can be. | ||
| Right now we've got, and we're going to hold him through the break, Todd Benzman, Oscar | ||
| Romero, are you guys up with us at the border? | ||
| Todd, you up? | ||
| Yes, I'm here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm here in Austin, Texas. | |
| Thank you, Todd. | ||
| Thanks for all the great work you do. | ||
| We're going to go in about 30 seconds, but just what do you make of the RNC and President Trump both coming out, putting immigration at the top of the priority list? | ||
| I think it came out number one, even above inflation. | ||
| Just your quick comments there, and then we'll go to break and come back with you. | ||
| Makes perfect sense. | ||
| A Harvard poll just came out. | ||
| placing it right there at the top with inflation, immigration, the border crisis, | ||
| but also interestingly the terrorism threat emerged as a high-ranking subset | ||
|
unidentified
|
of the immigration problem in that Harvard poll. | |
| Very interesting. | ||
| All right, back with Todd Bensman and Oscar Romero on the border invasion. | ||
| I ran on it 10 years ago. | ||
| It was bad then. | ||
| It's way worse today. | ||
| The War Room posse is standing to do the right thing and get this country right back on track, back in a minute in the War Room. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Deep right in the war room with Stephen K. Bannon and our good friend Todd Bensman, our | ||
| border invasion expert. | ||
| He's been on the issue his whole life. | ||
| No better expert to have with us on the War Room. | ||
| Todd, I hear at CIS you have a special seminar coming up. | ||
| What are you aiming at there? | ||
| Right. | ||
| I'm not involved in that one, but you can go to our website, CIS.org. | ||
| And take a look, it's front and center and you know, we'll be going live on that panel. | ||
| I think that's tomorrow if I'm not mistaken. | ||
| Good, good. | ||
| And if I understand it right, it's the impact of illegal immigration on the labor market, African-American community, jobs, etc. | ||
| Is that right? | ||
| That's right. | ||
| I forgot that small detail. | ||
| But yeah, that's a good topic because as you know, the Black communities across the country are polling more in favor of Trump these days than they have in the past long time, and there's a squabble and a shakeup in the campaign to try to get him back. | ||
| Yeah, and when you're boots on the ground down on the border states, do you hear that anecdotally plus? | ||
| I mean, are you hearing that that's a strong, strong theme? | ||
| Well, actually, I spend most of my time on the Mexican side. | ||
| I'm usually with the immigrants, so I'm not there, but I can read the polling just like anybody else. | ||
| Go look at Google a Chicago city assembly meeting, any one of them in the last year, | ||
| and you'll see the black community members packing the chambers to the rafters, | ||
| screaming bloody murder over all the immigration, all the money going to the new immigrants | ||
| going into the pouring into that city, 300,000 at last count, they're mad. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Very good. | ||
| And you made some comments on the introduction, you know, the border invasion is probably the number one issue amongst Americans. | ||
| And then you mentioned terrorism. | ||
| Say a couple words about that and then we'll go to Oscar as well. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And Oscar's a great person to talk to. | ||
| He's in the Darien Gap. | ||
| That's where the majority of people, immigrants on the FBI's terrorism watch list are pouring through. | ||
| That's their channel. | ||
| That's their trail right through there. | ||
| We've had 370 hit our border who are on the US FBI terrorism watch list. | ||
| Since Biden was elected, the FBI just recently rolled up eight Tajikistanis on a multi-state terrorism sting operation with wiretaps. | ||
| All of them came in over the border, including one of them came in through that CBP1. | ||
| We had two Jordanians, one of whom crossed the border illegally, try a vehicle ramming attack at Quantico. | ||
| We've had like six to eight different accidental releases of people on the FBI terrorism watch list who came over the border. | ||
| We accidentally released them and DHS just came out with a major study of our vetting processes down there at the border for this problem and they said we don't have any vetting down there. | ||
| Terrible. | ||
| Unreal. | ||
| In closing, Todd, most all this could be shut down with an executive order just like it was opened up. | ||
| True or false? | ||
| Absolutely true. | ||
| I give it about an hour. | ||
| The whole thing started in about an hour after inauguration and the whole thing could be shut down in an hour after the next inauguration if it's the right person. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| I hate to simplify things to that level, but sometimes things are that simple. | ||
| Todd, thanks for all your hard work and taking care of all the technical difficulties and fighting the fight and doing the best you can do after the executive order goes in. | ||
| Oscar Ramirez down at the Darien Gap. | ||
| Oscar, bring us up to speed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, we are. | |
| We came back from the Darien Gap, Dave. | ||
| We just came back from there. | ||
| It's a massive flow. | ||
| It is continuing between 1,000 to 1,500 individuals that are coming in. | ||
| And even on the Darien Gap, there's social classes. | ||
| There's a route that is called Carreto, where the massive flow is coming in by Chinese migrants that are arriving over here, and also migrants from India and migrants from Iran. | ||
| I encountered a migrant from India, and he told me that he is crossing illegally through the walls But the most amazing thing is what he told me, that in the Constitution, they have told them, their parents and also their family members, that in the Constitution it says that no human is illegal. | ||
| And I was shocked to say, like, where in the Constitution of the United States of America says that? | ||
| Also, I encountered migrants from Iran. | ||
| Uh, you know, massive numbers of Chinese that they're arriving. | ||
| I did an interview with a couple of Chinese migrants and I asked them, do you think that they are spies infiltrated on these vulnerable groups of yours? | ||
| And, and all of them, they say, possibly there's a few. | ||
| So how much is a few at this particular point in juncture? | ||
| You know, so, uh, the massive flow, it is continuing. | ||
| Uh, the president of Panama has also, uh, put concertina wire in the middle of the jungle so they can close these routes where the traffickers of the Colombian cartel, the planet Gulfo, they're trying to smuggle them. | ||
| So they will come down into one particular route and the authorities of Panama will document all the mass migration that is coming through there all the way to the villages outside of the Darien Bay. | ||
| Oscar, thanks very much. | ||
| Todd Bensman at the opening also mentioned what you're getting at, the terrorist threat and the idea of having another 9-11 on American soil due to this grotesque negligence in the law and maintaining our own nation and our border. | ||
| What can you say on that, the threat of terrorism? | ||
| Have you read any reports? | ||
| Have you seen what the FBI is doing, what they're saying? | ||
| What's the best state of knowledge on that issue right now? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dave, and to all Americans, this is how the United States looks outside right now. | |
| How authorities that we have been documented, Ben Berkman and myself, all Central and South America, all the governmental institutions, they have said, what is the United States of America doing? | ||
| They are really, in a way, they are really vulnerable at this particular point to get a terrorist attack. | ||
| And I'm not exaggerating to be attacked by within. | ||
| Because a lot of these individuals, they're coming in non-vetted, and they're coming in from Venezuela, which is a critical GAN, the Tren del Agua, that has been arriving in the parts of Chicago and also New York today. | ||
| Yeah, it's just unbelievable. | ||
| Oscar, Todd, thank you for all you do for this country. | ||
| God bless you. | ||
| It is just stunning. | ||
| The FBI has conservative voters and the environmental threat is a higher threat than what these gentlemen have just laid out. | ||
| It's just A stunning state of affairs, which just shows you we need to get to the work, right? | ||
| As Steve Bannon says, it's action, action, action. | ||
| So when you hear Oscar doing tremendous work like that, telling you where we stand, that's it. | ||
| Another hero with the War Room, Mike Davis, I think has some special reports coming to us from the RNC Platform Committee. | ||
| Mike, what did you glean today? | ||
| What were they up to with the RNC Platform results? | ||
| It was a very good day for President Trump today in Milwaukee at the Republican National Committee's platform committee ahead of the convention that starts next week. | ||
| We had Senator Marsha Blackburn, who chaired the platform committee meeting today. | ||
| She did a fantastic job. | ||
| Randy Evans, who was President Trump's ambassador to Luxembourg, was the executive director. | ||
| Russ Voigt, Who was Trump's OMB director, was a policy lead, as was Ed Martin from the Eagles, Phyllis Schlafly Eagles. | ||
| It was a great day. | ||
| Vince Haley from the Trump campaign, the policy director. | ||
| Everyone came together. | ||
| President Trump called in. | ||
| He worked, he was very hands-on on this updated platform for the Republican National Committee. | ||
| And President Trump and his team made sure that this document was up, the RNC platform was updated, | ||
| so it's relevant for the Trump agenda, and it's relevant and accessible to real Americans | ||
| and real America, so they can understand what we stand for as a party, | ||
| and how we contrast with these Biden Democrats. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was a very good day. | |
| Yeah, that's great. | ||
| Say a little word about maybe the press coverage you've seen about this. | ||
| In the opening monologue, I've always said, you know, we have the policy winners, right? | ||
| The border invasion, the economy, the inflation, the deep state tied in with the $2 trillion deficits, massive spending that creates and sustains these deep state, administrative state, and then endless wars, right? | ||
| Retired Colonel John Mills was on that. | ||
| I thought it was about four wars that were open fire U.S. | ||
| troops. | ||
| He says 14 hotspots. | ||
| So we never get to debate that with the left, right? | ||
| All political views are my own. | ||
| But that's never, it's always about the internal squawking in the Republicans or they set you up. | ||
| I mean, what's the Freedom Caucus saying? | ||
| Blah, blah, blah. | ||
| What's your take on the overall messaging? | ||
| And can our leadership, right, the Speaker of the House and the And our Senate leaders, can they get out the message more efficiently so we finally get some of these massive problems this country's facing solved? | ||
| Yeah, Trump, President Trump's Republican National Committee platform unifies the party. | ||
| It brings in right-thinking Democrats and independents. | ||
| It's forward-looking. | ||
| It's clear. | ||
| It's concise. | ||
| It makes a lot of sense. | ||
| And he talks about securing the border, bringing down interest rates, bringing down crime, ending the weaponization of governments, appointing good justices and federal judges to the bench. | ||
| I talked about that today. | ||
| I briefed the committee today, the platform committee today on President Trump's agenda on judges and the weaponization. | ||
| It is, there are 10 points to this. | ||
| It's only like 18 pages. | ||
| It's not a lobbyist driven document. | ||
| This was driven by President Trump and his team. | ||
| It was uplifting. | ||
| sure that his agenda, the America First agenda, is now the RNC party platform for every candidate | ||
| across America to run on this platform. | ||
| It was unifying. | ||
| It was uplifting. | ||
| It was a great day for President Trump. | ||
| Have you seen any of the reporting by the mainstream media yet on this unity of party spirit? | ||
| I'm sure they're going to cover the great unity. | ||
| And you put your finger on something very important. | ||
| This is not your old Republican-Democrat thing, right? | ||
| So when I say the political views are my own, there is a populist uprising going on globally, right? | ||
| And I open with why, right? | ||
| 10% own 90%. | ||
| This is not lost on everybody. | ||
| The old Democrats, the poor, everyone's doing a double take right now. | ||
| And so we never get any reportage on these great themes and great solutions for the country. | ||
| Have you seen any preliminary reports yet? | ||
| I'm expecting all rosy scenarios. | ||
| Yeah, it's amazing. | ||
| There is a coup within the Democrat Party to take out the sitting president of the United States, who is the democratically elected Democrat nominee. | ||
| And you have the Washington DC insiders trying to take out President Biden as we speak. | ||
| The Republicans are united. | ||
| President Trump has united the party with this forward-looking, common-sense, concise, Smart agenda where it solves real problems for real Americans in real America. | ||
| Yeah, Mike Davis, thank you. | ||
| You always give some great insights, right? | ||
| The gaslighting you just alluded to is just extraordinary, right? | ||
| So they're trying to take out a president again after 16. | ||
| I went over some of that, right? | ||
| They're trying to take out another president. | ||
| I don't think the voters are in charge of that process the last time I checked. | ||
| And so you're spot on as usual. | ||
| Mike Davis, thanks for joining us on The War Room. | ||
| You'll be Back daily. | ||
| You're just a great source of not only Article 3, but just a political font of wisdom across the board. | ||
| Thanks for being with us, Mike. | ||
| War Room, we're going to be back in a little bit. | ||
| But before we go there, the world is in turmoil. | ||
| In my opening remarks, I forgot to mention productivity. | ||
| Productivity has been down 70 years in a row. | ||
| CBO has it going down for another 30 years in a row. | ||
| So how's the real economy doing? | ||
| Not hot. | ||
| Let anyone tell you otherwise. | ||
| If they want to debate that one, I'd love to hear it. | ||
| What's this mean? | ||
| This means you ought to look out at Birch Gold. | ||
| The rest of the world is buying gold for some reason. | ||
| You want to explore what that reason is. | ||
| Gold has historically been a good hedge. | ||
| No real estate advice on the War Room, but go do your homework. | ||
| Call them at Birch Gold. | ||
| They're good friends. | ||
| I've met them personally. | ||
| I like them. | ||
| They speak common sense. | ||
| So only you can determine what's right for your own portfolio. | ||
| Go do the right thing. | ||
| back to the War Room with Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| They brought in with the great Stephen K. Bannon and one of his great friends and great contributors for years now, | ||
| who's been the spear on the healthcare, the Dr. Fauci catastrophe, et cetera. | ||
| It's a very good question. | ||
| In the preliminary remarks, the opening, I told people what Steve want us to do, which is action, action, action, go to work. | ||
| He doesn't want crying in the war room. | ||
| But we're going to take a little exception here. | ||
| I'm a little upset with a lot of my freedom guys, the tax cut guys and the libertarian types. | ||
| Guys and gals, you need freedom in the first place. | ||
| to have free markets. | ||
| It seems to be lost on a lot of people who are not fighting for freedom. | ||
| And you should be writing letters on behalf of Peter Navarro and Stephen K. Bannon, etc. | ||
| And so one of our great contributors wrote such a letter, Dr. Naomi Wolf, thank you for your heart this week, for | ||
| sharing your ideals. | ||
| Why don't you give the War Room a summary of what you said and why you felt the need to say, where the heck are you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
To a whole host of folks who should be there at the ramparts Yeah, thank you so much for having me on so this essay is titled what time it is I mean, it's about mr. Bannon's imprisonment and I Basically, the argument is, I don't care if you like Mr. Bannon's politics, if you don't like his politics. | |
| I was horrified, I remain horrified at the relative silence and acquiescence of millions of voices of people who should know better when Mr. Bannon was called off to prison at FCI Danbury. | ||
| It was a silence, relative silence on the right, in the center, libertarians, independents, and liberals who profess to care about the rule of law and due process of law. | ||
| And the reason I was so horrified is that I recognize the nature of that silence. | ||
| I mean, to me, Mr. Bannon's imprisonment is at least as serious as Julian Assange's imprisonment. | ||
| I made the point in my essay that I was advisor to President Clinton's re-election campaign and to Vice President Gore's presidential campaign, and I was married to a White House speechwriter during the Clinton years. | ||
| And everyone relied, and they rely to this day, on executive privilege. | ||
| It's so, it's clear to me that Mr. Bannon is being treated with a double standard. | ||
| But what's also clear is that the goal of the imprisonment is to silence Mr. Bannon's voice. | ||
| And I looked at the rules, the regulations, the handbook for prisoners. | ||
| Literally, he can't use the internet as I understand it. | ||
| He can't record for future release. | ||
| He can't follow the presidential, he can't follow the convention digitally. | ||
| He can't Be seen, you know, by the posse. | ||
| He's cut out entirely from engagement in digital communications. | ||
| And there are a lot of things he can do, right? | ||
| He can finish his GED. | ||
| He can learn martial arts. | ||
| But the overwhelming result of his imprisonment happens to be to silence him, take him off the battlefield for these crucial four months. | ||
| Yeah, thank you so much, Naomi. | ||
| It does go to show you, and Dr. Naomi Wolf goes to show you, what is possible in this country. | ||
| There's still a huge swath of truth and ethical behavior and principled behavior and lawful behavior that can keep us all together. | ||
| You can disagree strongly with people, right, in a constitutional republic. | ||
| It's never been a problem. | ||
| There's slavery. | ||
| I'm grossing over huge swaths of history. | ||
| Right, but we can make it work. | ||
| But there have to be some fundamentals. | ||
| Naomi, what are some of those fundamentals that you would point to that should keep us all together in closing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I think the most important thing is people have to recognize that You know, they're treating Mr. Bannon's imprisonment, in my view, as kind of a sacrificial gesture that keeps them safe, right? | |
| Oh, you know, they went after him, they got him, we'll be safe. | ||
| That's not how it works. | ||
| I've been trying since 2007 to warn people about what the collapse of a democracy looks like based on historical precedent. | ||
| And what I really want people to understand is that all of this deplatforming, the debanking, the loss of licenses, Bankrupting is trivial compared with what Mr. Bannon's arrest represents or imprisonment represents, which is they're coming after our bodies now, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're coming, they're mopping up the opposition now. | |
| And I looked back, I'm Jewish, my grandmother lost nine brothers and sisters in the Holocaust. | ||
| I looked back at this six-month period, so important, before the Nazis were actually formally in power. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And the SS mopped up the opposition. | ||
| Right. | ||
| They informally took opposition voices, outspoken clergy, union leaders, | ||
| into those makeshift prisons. | ||
| They beat them or they disappeared them. | ||
| And that's where we're at right now. | ||
| And what people have to understand is that silence doesn't protect them. | ||
| Their silence endangers them. | ||
| Only speak on behalf of Mr. Bannon protect them. | ||
| Spot on, spot on, spot on. | ||
| Eric McTax, this is going to be on Wednesday. | ||
| I might have Naomi back on. | ||
| That was just an eloquent statement, full of wisdom. | ||
| God bless you and all the work you do, Naomi. | ||
| Thanks for being with us on The War Room today. | ||
| Right now, we got Mo Bannon in the house. | ||
| Mo, let's hear your roar. | ||
| She's going to tee up the 6 o'clock show. | ||

| show and you'll find out exactly how he's doing in his first week at Danbury Correctional Facility. | ||
| And I know a bunch of the posse have asked me on a regular basis how they can support my dad. | ||
| I know before he said he does not want the posse to write letters. | ||
| He does not want you guys to take time away from the fight to write him letters. | ||
| But in order to support him, you can support our sponsors. | ||
