| Last week's presidential immunity ruling by the Leonard Leo-appointed Supreme Court conservative majority all but put a nail in the coffin of the efforts to hold Donald Trump accountable for his many alleged crimes before November's election. | ||
| The federal election interference case won't be returned back to D.C. | ||
| Circuit Court Judge Tanya Chutkan until next month, when the Supreme Court officially issues its judgment in the immunity case. | ||
| At that point, Judge Chutkan would need to parse through what parts of the indictment could still be charged against Trump and that would likely require evidentiary hearings to be held. | ||
| That would be the last opportunity before the election for Jack Smith to make public any of the damning evidence against Trump, including the possibility of having high-profile officials like Trump's former vice president, Mike Pence, testify at the hearings. | ||
| The Guardian reports that Trump's team is already preparing to fight to stop such hearings from occurring. | ||
| According to the Guardian, in the coming months, Trump's lawyers are expected to argue that the judge can decide whether the conduct is immune based on legal arguments alone. | ||
| If prosecutors try to call Pence or his chief of staff Mark Short to testify about meetings where Trump discussed stopping the January 6th certification, Trump would try to block that testimony. | ||
| Senator Schumer there. | ||
| There was this long, lengthy lunch that Senate Democrats had today. | ||
| And after my colleague Dana Bash reported that you, Senator Jon Tester, and Senator Sherrod Brown all said during that lunch that you don't think President Biden can win in 2024. | ||
| Is that true? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, it's true that I said that. | |
| And I did say that behind closed doors. | ||
| And You guys and others asked whether I'd said it, and that is what I said, so I figured I should come here and say it publicly. | ||
| Why do you think he can't win in November? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I just think this race is on a trajectory that is very worrisome if you care about the future of this country. | |
| Joe Biden was nine points up at this time, the last time he was running. | ||
| Hillary Clinton was five points up. | ||
| This is the first time in more than 20 years that a Republican president has been up in this part of the campaign. | ||
| Donald Trump is on track, I think, to win this election and maybe win it by a landslide and take with him the Senate and the House. | ||
| For me, this isn't a question about polling. | ||
| It's not a question about politics. | ||
| It's a moral question about the future of our country. | ||
| And I think it's critically important for us to come to grips with what we face if, together, we put this country on the path of electing Donald Trump again. | ||
| So you're worried that your party is not just going to lose the White House if Joe Biden is at the top of the ticket, but that you're also going to lose both chambers of Congress? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think that we could lose the whole thing. | |
| And it's staggering to me. | ||
| I mean, Donald Trump's already been president. | ||
| I thought he was the worst president that we've ever had. | ||
| How do we stop this case from going back to the Supreme Court? | ||
| Because I feel like their best shot would be to somehow appeal her attempt to hold the evidentiary hearing and somehow get it back into the hands of the pro-insurrectionist majority on the court. | ||
| Because if they did that, we already know that whether it's John Roberts or Alito or Thomas, they'll shut it down. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So that's a really interesting question. | |
| I mean, obviously, all roads do lead back to the Supreme Court. | ||
| There would be a hearing before Judge Chutkan about whether or not the hearing could happen. | ||
| That could be appealed onto the D.C. | ||
| Circuit, and then any decision from the D.C. | ||
| Circuit could be appealed to the Supreme Court. | ||
| The Supreme Court, however, does not have to take this. | ||
| And again, so many Americans are up in arms about this immunity decision. | ||
| Seventy-five percent of Americans don't believe that the President should have Complete immunity from criminal prosecution and they worry that although the court has not given the president complete immunity, it has opened a quite wide door to the president having immunity from criminal liability in the future and they are understandably upset about it. | ||
| And so I wonder if the court, which has to rely on public opinion to some degree for its own legitimacy, might think twice about taking up this case and handing another win to Donald Trump. | ||
| But the delay is really where all the action is. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Pray for our enemies. | |
| Because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| Here's how I got a free shot of all these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||
| I know you don't like hearing that. | ||
| I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big lie? | ||
|
unidentified
|
MAGA Media. | |
| 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? | |
| If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. | ||

War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Dave Bradd at The War Room with Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Kay Bannon. | ||
| We open every show in honor of Steve. | ||
| Behind him, he's got a sign of the cross in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. | ||
| We all are praying for Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| We're praying for our country. | ||
| We're all praying in that little cold open there. | ||
| Everybody's bringing up morality lately. | ||
| And so maybe now is the time to go back to first principles and all the great principles our founders set up to form a good republic. | ||
| We've improved it along the way. | ||
| And so we're hopeful on the war room that we have a great conversation. | ||
| We got the Supreme Court. | ||
| Mark Payaletta is going to be coming in. | ||
| But first, we're going in to continue the dialogue from this morning with Dr. Naomi Wolf. | ||
| She set up earlier this morning a bit on the piece she wrote in defense of liberty, when conservatives and independents and classical liberals are missing from the fray. | ||
| She wrote a piece called What Time Is It?, implying it's late in the game and made some historical References to that effect. | ||
| And I think after that, I think we got enough time in this segment. | ||
| I apologize for earlier in the day. | ||
| We had a quick, quick out. | ||
| But Dr. Naomi Wolf, I think she's also going to go into some big pharma news as well. | ||
| And so, Naomi, thanks for coming back on with us at the five o'clock hour. | ||
| Great to have you on The War Room. | ||
| And why don't you just take off where you left off? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Well, we were talking about this essay I wrote about Steve Bannon's incarceration. | ||
| And what I was saying in the earlier show is that so much of the conditions at Federal Correctional Institute Danbury are, the outcome is to silence him, right? | ||
| And that, I think, is one of the goals of this so assiduously sought sentencing. | ||
| He can't speak to us, even in a recording. | ||
| He can't, as I understand it, access The Internet in such a way as to follow the convention. | ||
| He can't advise the president in real time. | ||
| He can't text people. | ||
| He he he's really his voice is really silenced. | ||
| He has limited snail mail privileges. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| He can only be in possession of 20 postage stamps at one time. | ||
| And they're like What seemed just emotionally cruel, like psychologically burdensome conditions. | ||
| For instance, if a family member visits him, they can only kiss or shake hands at the start and end of the visit, no hugging, no touching during the visit, even for family. | ||
| And he has a limited number of visitors allowed, or visits allowed, and the restrictions depend on things as random as how far they have to travel. | ||
| I guess all of that being said, the takeaway for me is, He's this alone achieved what they've been wanting to achieve for so long, which is the silencing of Steve Bannon at this critical four-month period leading up to the most important election of our time, in which his candidate is now being acknowledged even by the opposition, by the leading administration, the ones in power, as at risk of winning in a landslide, right? | ||
| So this is not a coincidence. | ||
| It's not accidental. | ||
| But the second more important thing I want What I want to say is this is not just about Steve Bannon. | ||
| I was very horrified to see a pretty muted response from even conservatives. | ||
| With the exception of a few outraged podcasts and articles in the alternative media, many conservatives have been pretty silent about Steve Bannon's incarceration. | ||
| Libertarians have been silent. | ||
| Centrists have been silent. | ||
| Certainly liberals, even those who claim to care about due process of law and the Constitution have been silent. | ||
| And this is really stupid and scary because it's not just about this prisoner, right? | ||
| Just like Julian Assange wasn't just about that prisoner. | ||
| This is about all of us and what people really need to understand, | ||
| which is why the title is What Time It Is, is it's one thing to be at the stage of a dying democracy | ||
| in which people are deplatformed, delicensed, debanked, persecuted, lawfare, right? | ||
| All of that is a mere annoyance indicating the decline of a formerly robust democracy. | ||
| But once the state starts to take opponents into physical custody, once they take your body, then we've passed a point of no return. | ||
| And there are historic precedents. | ||
| So, what I keep saying is, it's the first six months of 1933. | ||
| And this is before the Nazis actually had a formal majority In the Reichstag, the SS and the SA were mopping up. | ||
| It's the mopping up of the opposition physically. | ||
| They were arresting informally, right, opposition leaders, critics, editors, journalists, clergy members who were outspoken, union leaders, people who just didn't agree with them and were standing fast in opposition to them. | ||
| And they took these people informally into basements. | ||
| prisons, they beat them up, or they disappeared them. | ||
| And it was no secret, right? | ||
| And then the ones who survived went back and told the tale of their being mistreated or silenced or beaten. | ||
| And then, within six months, all of German civil society had gone quiet. | ||
| The people who would be expected to stand up against the Nazis didn't do so, because they, too, were afraid. | ||
| And that's what I'm seeing, this silence, as if if you let them have Steve Bannon, they won't come after you, right? | ||
| Or your podcast gets market share. | ||
| Whatever nonsense is the reason for the silence, relative silence, about Steve Bannon's incarceration is really wrongheaded, because if they can take him, you know, quarantine camps, which they've set up right here in New York State, we had to sue, or actually Bobby Ann Cox, a lawyer, had to sue The governor of this state where I'm sitting to not open quarantine camps where people like us could be quarantined. | ||
| They have them in Australia, right? | ||
| Dissidents are quarantined. | ||
| Or hospitals where your loved ones can't come see you, which happens so often in lockdowns. | ||
| All of these are conditions in which anything can be done to the person whose body is in custody. | ||
| And one of the things that really scared me about FCI Danbury is that It's the prisoner's responsibility to go along with not to refuse medical protocols. | ||
| What does that mean? | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's really scary. | ||
| So in many ways, this is dangerous, not just for Steve Bannon, but for all of us. | ||
| And if we don't speak up now in support of him, but also in just opposition to having political prisoners in the United States of America, which is not how our system is supposed to work. | ||
| Then it's not like, oh, they got him, they won't get me, they won't get you. | ||
| It's because of our silence that we will be next. | ||
| Yeah, well said, Naomi. | ||
| And I applaud you and your logic, the way you generalize from what happens to any individual in this country happens to us all. | ||
| Right? | ||
| That's kind of at the guts of the moral fiber that made this country special from its inception, right? | ||
| That hope. | ||
| It hasn't been perfected. | ||
| We were all, you know, fall short of perfection. | ||
| But the way you put that is just perfect. | ||
| And it is interesting. | ||
| I have some classical liberal in me, right? | ||
| Uncle Milton Friedman. | ||
| I like that. | ||
| Many elements of the Enlightenment, even though on the moral theory, I don't think it closed the circle quite fully. | ||
| And so it's very interesting. | ||
| Sometimes it's hard for conservatives maybe to see our own selves clearly, but maybe you can see it better. | ||
| And so what do you think it is about conservatives? | ||
| Liberals, right? | ||
| The ACLU was initially formed back when you had classical liberals, and they were shouting and screaming on behalf of minority communities, which was the right thing to do for the liberty of every single person. | ||
| And the conservatives, we weren't doing it back then. | ||
| And now conservatives are awfully quiet, as you say. | ||
| Are we defective in some manner when it comes to making noise and protesting? | ||
| What's wrong with the conservative movement, where we can't make any noise? | ||
| Yeah, that's a great question. | ||
| Well, I've actually thought about that a lot, because I would have—there are critical points in the last few years, since I kind of—I don't think I've switched sides, but, you know, I'm much more friends with you all than I am with my own former team right now, certainly. | ||
| Where I would have thought that there would be a forceful show of unity and resistance from conservatives, and there hasn't been. | ||
| So I think one thing which is true is that liberals do seem to be, or the left seems to be better able to organize partly because we're not philosophically committed to individualism. | ||
| And so all of you guys are like, You know, we're a bunch of individuals. | ||
| You know, we decide for ourselves, and that's awesome, but it makes it hard to, I gather, it makes it hard to kind of coordinate. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I would have thought, though, that the fact that so many of you have military training with me before, that's just a guess, but it's time to- Very good. | |
| Back with Naomi Wolf in a second. | ||
|
unidentified
|
War Room. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bowne. | ||
| Dave Brat in the War Room with Stephen K. Bannon, and our special guest was in this morning, had the moral courage to write a fine piece in defense of Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| And all the work they've done together over the years in the pharmaceutical industry on the Fauci mischief, etc. | ||
| And so, Naomi Wolf, why don't you, if you were done with the freedom argument, or if you wanted to close the loop on that and then give us the latest breaking news on the pharmaceutical industries as well. | ||
| And thanks again for being with us today. | ||
| Yeah, my pleasure. | ||
| Yeah, just to wrap up. | ||
| I think it's interesting. | ||
| You asked why conservatives don't seem to mobilize and kind of rise up as a group the way that I think they should at critical moments, for instance, when one of their chief leaders is taken into custody. | ||
| And I think also one reason is they have an optimism about this country that is sometimes respectfully naive, given what history shows can happen. | ||
| And so I think they believe that, you know, It can never get that bad in the United States of America because they have this boundless faith in America. | ||
| But America depends on people, right, to defend it. | ||
| So I think they need a little bit of dark awareness of the 20th century in Europe to see what can happen in America. | ||
| So that's what I would say about liberty. | ||
| And it was very moving. | ||
| I read this essay last night on a live stream. | ||
| And by the end of it, people asked me to pray. | ||
| And I've never prayed in public. | ||
| It's kind of embarrassing to people on the left to pray in public. | ||
| When I'm asking people to go outside their comfort zone, I'll do that too. | ||
| And I did. | ||
| So we prayed for, you know, for the war room, for Bannon, for his posse, for his family, and beyond supporting him through supporting his sponsors, which I know the family has asked us to do. | ||
| I do think that that is, it's got to be helpful. | ||
| And if there's more that we can do, I'd love for the War Room and the family to tell us, because I'm inundated with people saying, what more can we do for Mr. Bannon and Mrs. Bannon? | ||
| Yeah, outstanding. | ||
| I think you're exactly right. | ||
| I'm from Michigan and Minnesota, and up there, we're Minnesota nice and all that. | ||
| Now I say, I just say, I am Minnesota stupid. | ||
| And your phrase there was perfect. | ||
| Respectfully naive. | ||
| I didn't know about Minority positions, or justice, or injustice, you know, I just liked everybody up there, right? | ||
| It wasn't an issue. | ||
| And then now there's books out here that are serious, like Glennon called National Security and the Double Government, that says us Madisonians are equally naive, right? | ||
| We believe in this separation of government, that it actually works, when in fact the fourth branch is all-powerful, the administrative state, I'm a free market person that's looking for any semblance of a free market anywhere now. | ||
| So he contrasts the Trumanites with the Madisonians and he's spot on. | ||
| And so that's a perfect transition into the Fauci, Big Pharma. | ||
| I'm a free market person that's looking for any semblance of a free market anywhere now. | ||
| I can't find any. | ||
| They're all the magnificent seven are all monopolies. | ||
| I do not defend those. | ||
| Conservatism should not defend any of this nonsense. | ||
| Not only are they economically dangerous, they're politically dangerous. | ||
| And I think a lot of your work has done the nation a huge service, so why don't you give us a few minutes on the breaking pharmaceutical news you have to share. | ||
| Sure, well that's a great intro, Dave, because You know Pfizer and its massive profits over the last few years are a real example of kind of a Marxist centrally planned economy in which the government just handed over billions of dollars in taxpayer money for a product that turned out to be murderously dangerous. | ||
| But the big news it's it is big is that McHale I want to pronounce his name correctly. | ||
| Dolston the chief research scientist at Pfizer And the one who was responsible for the rollout of Comirnaty, which is the original name of the COVID-19 Pfizer shot in 2020, is stepping down. | ||
| There's no suggestion that it's his idea. | ||
| He's being essentially let go, it would appear. | ||
| And Pfizer is issuing kind of a press release to make it as nice as possible. | ||
| But the bottom line is that the father of the COVID injection, Pfizer's COVID injection that Steve Bannon in the war room did everything to expose, right, through our efforts, he's gone. | ||
| The shot obtained initial authorization in 2020, less than a year after scientists identified SARS-CoV-2 and it made Billions and billions. | ||
| However that did not last because as we've been exposing the problems with that injection it also lost billions and billions. | ||
| And I think that I think that that it's important to note that they're dramatically losing market share down to. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| These setbacks combined with the Quick and steep loss of billions of dollars in COVID-related drug revenue. | ||
| That's us, you guys, who left Pfizer in a precarious position as it searches for a new research leader. | ||
| So, you know, I think we need a victory lap, even though our hero is physically in prison. | ||
| He brought this about. | ||
| The posse brought this about. | ||
| They've lost billions of dollars because we exposed the fact that this was poison, sterilizing, disabling, and murdering people. | ||
| And the guy who Developed it, it has been booted. | ||
| You know, you're welcome. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| No, Naomi, thank you. | ||
| Thanks to the War Room Posse for putting the heat on Congress when you need to. | ||
| I think Naomi's right that we all need to start taking a deeper dive into the dark history that has preceded us and how we got dark so that we can get to the sunlit uplands, as Stephen K. Bannon always says. | ||
| Naomi, you're part of that bright light shining out there. | ||
| God bless you. | ||
| Thank you for all you do. | ||
| And we're going to have you back often. | ||
| And let's pivot now to you, Matt. | ||
| Thanks, Naomi. | ||
| Let's pivot to Mark Paoletta on the courts and the reference back to the cold open at the beginning of the five o'clock show. | ||
| Mark, sorry to make it disjointed, but some unprecedented moves here in language coming from the president of the United States. | ||
| Can you please unpack that for us? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Thanks, Dave, for having me on. | ||
| The left is still furious with the Supreme Court and is doing everything in an unprecedented way to attack the court. | ||
| Last week, we saw President Biden, after the Supreme Court ended the term last Monday, attack the court. | ||
| And he had previously attacked Justices Thomas and Alito by name. | ||
| There's a New York Post story that I put up on my ex post that That look back and you really only find President Obama once attacking the Supreme Court. | ||
| You remember that with the Citizens United case in the State of the Union. | ||
| And Nixon criticized the court in 74 for a 68 decision on New York Times v. Sullivan, which was the libel case, which made it a really, really high standard to prove defamation. | ||
| And that was when he was in trouble, you know, in 74 with Watergate. | ||
| But there's never been a president, until Joe Biden, who had a primetime press conference, right, four minutes, last Monday, to trash the court and its opinions, not just the presidential immunity decision, but, you know, the Loper-Bright and abortion and all these other opinions of the Second Amendment decisions by the court. | ||
| So, he directly trashed the Supreme Court in a four-minute address to the nation, and then he walked away and didn't take any questions. | ||
| And I take it he's either a coward or he doesn't have the mental capacity to field any questions about the Supreme Court. | ||
| And my view is he always wants to outdo Obama, right? | ||
| He is so Desperate for the left's approval, right? | ||
| The lunatic left, as I call them. | ||
| I think his advisor said, Obama attacked the Supreme Court in 2000, I think it was 12, on the Citizens United case, 2010, whenever that case came down. | ||
| Let's go out and do a primetime address. | ||
| And it just shows you the norm-breaking, the dangerous nature of these attacks. | ||
| Remember, it was Schumer who stood outside of the front steps of the Supreme Court, in 2020 during an abortion argument and literally | ||
| physically threatened justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh that they better vote a certain way or you won't | ||
| know what hit you. | ||
| And you know, that led to assassination attempts and 24-hour security on the justices. | ||
| So you saw Biden last week ratchet up like we've never seen before in this nation. | ||
| And then we had just before the 4th of July, a wonderful day to celebrate America. | ||
| We should celebrate every day. | ||
| White House and Senator Whitehouse and Senator Wyden, two big Democrat senators, sent a letter to the Justice Department asking Merrick Garland to appoint a special prosecutor on Justice Thomas. | ||
| And so again, unprecedented, you know, attacks on Justice Thomas in particular, where with the end of the term, the term just ended July 1st, an epic term, you know, not everything, but a great, great term. | ||
| This is the best Supreme Court in 80 years. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| In a very, very long time. | ||
| And what's their response to that? | ||
| To try and launch a criminal investigation on Justice Thomas. | ||
| So again, unprecedented. | ||
| And this is on these bogus ethics charges and recusal charges against Justice Thomas. | ||
| And finally, in a good development, Ted Olson, who is a longtime Supreme Court He was a former appellate litigator, one of the top lawyers in the Supreme Court bar, as it's called. | ||
| He was a solicitor general under President Bush. | ||
| He won Bush v. Gore in the Supreme Court in 2000 during that election. | ||
| You know, very, very talented lawyer, but not a MAGA lawyer in any sense, not a Trump supporter in any sense. | ||
| He wrote an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal yesterday calling out the left for these attacks. | ||
| I was glad to see Ted Olson step up and defend the court, defend Justices Thomas and Alito, not by name, but just essentially the left's attacks that were dangerous, trying to undermine the integrity of the court, and that citizens and lawyers Should stand up and call this out. | ||
| And I've talked about this with Steve on this show before, Dave, that lawyers at the Supreme Court bar who practice before the Supreme Court, who know these justices, right, have worked for them. | ||
| Many of them are former Supreme Court clerks. | ||
| should step up and say, this is outrageous. | ||
| They're going to defend them. | ||
| And that has been one of the deafening silences to me of very, very few lawyers. | ||
| So I'm hoping, I'm always an optimist, that Ted Olsen's op-ed is going to unleash a lot of lawyers to defend the court, and specifically Justice Thomas. | ||
| Back with Mark Paoletta in one minute. | ||
| Stay tuned to The War Room. | ||

War Room. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Dave Brat in the War Room with Stephen K. Bannon and a special co-host, Mo Bannon, sitting in the War Room. | ||
| We've been having a great morning. | ||
| Great to have you with us, Mo. | ||
| We have. | ||
| Thank you, Dave. | ||
| Great. | ||
| We're going to finish with Mark Paoletta. | ||
| Mark, before we go on, you spoke of all the unprecedented attacks On the justices, you outline them all, and then you went to two US senators. | ||
| I was in the Congress a few years ago, and the one virtue of the Senate and the senators is they usually don't do anything. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And that's a joke for people that don't know Congress, right? | ||
| The senators, they're risk-averse beyond comprehension. | ||
| They rarely take on more than one issue at a time. | ||
| And so for two senators to come out blasting the Supreme Court That calls into question something new is going on here. | ||
| There are new rules of the game up in Washington, D.C. | ||
| And it's a transition from classical liberalism, the kind Naomi Wolf was describing, where we could all rely on the same rules of the game, to now just maybe irreconcilable philosophical differences. | ||
| And so, what are the new rules of the game? | ||
| Where they just continually attack, and it's just kind of Marxist deconstruction across the board. | ||
| It's not just Article 3, it's across the board, but you're the expert here. | ||
| And so, tee it up for us in a few more minutes, and then tell us how we can get ahold of you. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Thanks, Dave. | ||
| Look, Wyden and White House, they have been the ones leading the charge, attacking the Supreme Court, attacking Justice Thomas. | ||
| Obviously, Ron Wyden, who's the chairman of the Finance Committee, doesn't care about people violating tax laws. | ||
| He would have been looking into Hunter Biden and his notorious lack of paying taxes. | ||
| But it's all about In particular, Justice Thomas just triggers the left. | ||
| He's been doing this for 33 years, writing originalist opinions and standing strong. | ||
| And he just triggers the left. | ||
| I think he exposes their racism. | ||
| And, again, Biden attacked him, a former senator, back in 1991, when he was a chairman, right, threw everything at him, lied about him, didn't believe Anita Hill. | ||
| And that's contemporaneous evidence that he did not believe Anita Hill. | ||
| And he led that high-tech lynching, as Justice Thomas called it. | ||
| And, again, Those attacks launched the beginning tenure of our greatest justice, which is Clarence Thomas. | ||
| And so he has stood strong. | ||
| He just finished up a great term. | ||
| You're right in terms of the, well, I'll say there's a double standard too. | ||
| The Senate, they have a Senate Ethics Committee. | ||
| It does nothing, right? | ||
| You see Senator Menendez right now, standing trial. | ||
| The Senate Ethics Committee has done nothing on him, right? | ||
| I think it's something, like I've written on this, 1,800 complaints filed since 2004, and not a single time have they sanctioned a U.S. | ||
| senator or any staffer, I think, for anything. | ||
| And so, you know, there's a complaint against Senator Whitehouse for him helping his wife repeatedly and her clients. | ||
| She's an environmental consultant, and he's done all these things, you know, that benefit her clients and her pocketbook. | ||
| So, that's what you see, these senators that just want to destroy the Supreme Court. | ||
| And again, one of the other things that White House is doing, the Judicial Conference under | ||
| law is charged with administering the ethics laws for the judiciary, OK? | ||
| And he is bullying them to take actions against Justice Thomas, against other justices. | ||
| And it's really outrageous. | ||
| It's just thuggery at the end of the day. | ||
| It's not liberalism. | ||
| It's not classic liberalism. | ||
| It is a thuggish state where if you don't agree with me, I'm going to burn down the Supreme Court. | ||
| I'm going to attack it. | ||
| I'm going to raise questions. | ||
| I'm going to call you corrupt. | ||
| And it's all to delegitimize the Supreme Court so that they can pack it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Now, we're seeing President Trump, thank God he made those three appointments, and he is going to win in 2024. | ||
| And so we won't have a packing of the court. | ||
| But that's why it's so important to win in 2024, because I do believe that if the Democrats won, they would get rid of the filibuster and they would pack the Supreme Court and put For additional justices on the court to essentially control it and make it their, you know, their entity to implement their left agenda. | ||
| That's why it's important to get out and vote to support President Trump to make sure the Democrats do not have that opportunity to do that. | ||
| Yeah, well, as Stephen K. Bannon always says, it's just a good thing we're heading to polls because the left is just going to hand over the car keys to us and then we'll run things flawlessly following constitutional principles. | ||
| Not! | ||
| Right? | ||
| That's the opposite of what he always says. | ||
| They're not going to hand over the car keys. | ||
| Naomi Wolf just explained that conservatives are, in her quotes, respectfully naive. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Our side thinks we play constitutional rules. | ||
| We're Cub Scouts. | ||
| We're Christians. | ||
| And the left is doing exactly what Mark Paoletta just showed. | ||
| And so we need to rethink. | ||
| And then whenever we fight back, they gaslight us for our fighting language. | ||
| And we're not used to it. | ||
| And so, Mark, thank you for that great summary. | ||
| Where do people get you? | ||
| And you might want to call out Russ Vogt and the other great team members you got with you. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Russ is a great American, great patriot, doing great things. | ||
| I'm on X at Mark Paoletta, and I have a website, markpaoletta.com, where all my articles, I've written 50 of them that are up there on testimony. | ||
| And I'm at the Center for Renewing America, which is a superb organization supporting President Trump and his ideas. | ||
| Russ and I work together in OMB in the Trump White House, and he's done terrific work. | ||
| It's a terrific organization. | ||
| So thanks for having me on, Dave. | ||
| Yeah, no, thanks, Mark. | ||
| Everybody support Mark Ross, their group. | ||
| Support them in every way possible, including your prayers, right? | ||
| The whole country's in need of prayer right now so that we can gain the courage that Eric Metaxas was talking about earlier in the program this morning. | ||
| Right now, we're shifting over to Sandy Smith. | ||
| Sandy has some evidence of CCP involvement, right? | ||
| When we talk about the CCP, We're talking about the Chinese Communist Party, not the Lao-Beijing that Stephen K. Bannon is trying to liberate from this totalitarian surveillance state rule. | ||
| And so, Sandy, great to have you in the War Room. | ||
| Why don't you tell us the breaking news down there from Carolina and what you're working on? | ||
| Thanks for being with us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thanks, Dave. | |
| Great to be with you and Mo this afternoon. | ||
| Hey, we had a great article come out of the New York Post this week in regards to Congressman Don Davis and his ties to the CCP. | ||
| We're finding out that we have more and more people in Congress and in government that have heavy, strong ties to the CCP. | ||
| Matter of fact, they're financing trips for these folks to go over to China through an organization by the name of Chinese People's Association of Friendship with Foreign Countries. | ||
| It's a fully paid trip, and this is so they can have control of these legislators. | ||
| And you know, we all thought it was just Feng Feng's boyfriend that was tied to China. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| We have a ton of them, and it's on both sides of the aisle, and we need to sound the alarms and protect our country. | ||
| They own here in North Carolina over 380,000 acres of farmland. | ||
| 380,000 acres of farmland in my district alone, I think it's 6,500 acres and is absolutely crazy. | ||
| And the thing is, this farmland is strategic not only to our food supply, but also to national security. | ||
| They are purchasing these land that's, you know, very close to our military bases. | ||
| Here in North Carolina, we have over 13 military installations and bases here that are some of the most important in our country. | ||
| And we allow, you know, the Chinese weather balloons to come flying over, and now we're allowing them to freely come across our open border, and now we're letting them control our food supply. | ||
| What's really interesting is one of the biggest holders of land here in North Carolina is a company by the name of Smith Foods, who owns, I believe, over 146,000 acres alone here in North Carolina. | ||
| They are the one of the top four Meat producers here in our country. | ||
| And if you don't think that is a national security, I really don't know what is. | ||
| Because if they control the food, they control the people. | ||
| And if we let them control our politicians, they control us. | ||
| And that is why it is so important. | ||
| Sandy, thank you very much for reaching out. | ||
| You're an inspiration in terms of us staying vigilant. | ||
| You're a perfect example of what a citizen should be in this great country. | ||
| How do people reach you to find out how they can energize themselves and their communities to keep their eyes open as well? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| As President Trump says, we have to make it too big to rig. | ||
| You can find me on all social media platforms, SandySmithNC. | ||
| That's on X, that's on Facebook, that's on Twitter, and Telegram, and Getter, everything. | ||
| And I'll tell you, free Steve Bannon and pray for enemies. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| You got that right, Sandy. | ||
| Thanks for being with us. | ||
| I've been hogging the mic. | ||
| Mo Bannon, why don't you take over? | ||
| Who do we got up next? | ||
| First off, I couldn't agree with Sandy more. | ||
| Free Steve Bannon, and yes, pray for his enemies. | ||
| But right now, we have someone who is very near and dear to The War Room and has been a guest on the show quite often. | ||
| Caroline Ryan is with us. | ||
| Caroline, so I know that you've come on here and talked about Mr. Ringfield. | ||
| I believe that he was indicted and made an appearance in court, so could you please provide us an update about Mr. Ringfield? | ||
| Yes, back to the most corrupt county in the country, Maricopa County, where, you know, we've been up in arms for weeks on this show, The Posse has, about the arrest of Walter Rainfield Jr., who was an employee at the Maricopa County Elections Department who was arrested about three weeks ago for stealing critical or access fobs at the Maricopa County Tabulation Center, which access critical infrastructure and the actual tabulators. | ||
| The press has largely not been covering this. | ||
| It's been War Room really pushing people to look into this. | ||
| And so, yesterday, the Maricopa County Attorney's Office announced that he had been indicted. | ||
| And he was indicted for three felonies and one misdemeanor charge, which they were in relation to stealing the ballot tabulator key fob from Maricopa County. | ||
| Then he also stole from the Arizona State Legislature one week before that. | ||
| And then, also, they came out last week that He was also caught on video surveillance stealing $9,500 worth of jewelry from the Phoenix Art Museum about one month prior to when he committed the felony of the key fobs at Maricopa County. | ||
| And so this morning he actually entered a not guilty plea, which is interesting, and he's being held without bail. | ||
| But this is the part that is mind-blowing to me. | ||
| They set his trial date, and you won't believe, guess when this man is set to go to trial? | ||
| November 6th. | ||
| That means they're going to hold him in a jail cell without access to be able to speak to others, talk to press until the day after the election. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| As your dad says, Maureen, there are not coincidences. | ||
| This is not a coincidence that they set the trial date for November 6th and the general election is November 5th. | ||
| You're 100% correct in the fact that he pleaded not guilty this morning when there is clear evidence that we've seen that you've shared on the show that he is guilty of this. | ||
| but the fact that he was not only investigated prior to that, | ||
| but you said that a month before he stole the key fob, that he went and stole jewelry. | ||
| What makes you think, like, why was he even allowed to be in the vicinity of that building to steal the key fob? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Well, that's a really important question you just asked, because the Maricopa County, they did a press release, | ||
| or a press conference a couple days after the Maricopa County elections fraud, | ||
| And they said, we do not think that this is politically motivated. | ||
| Well, if it's not politically motivated, then what it's financially motivated. | ||
| What's the resale value of two key fobs, like on the street, $5. | ||
| Please give me a break. | ||
| This, the jewelry theft is an important piece of information because it shows clearly this guy needed money, right? | ||
| He's willing to commit a felony and go and steal jewelry. | ||
| So the question is obvious to me, Who paid him to go and steal these two critical access bobs to the Maricopa County tabulators? | ||
| Someone paid him to do it, which is why I think he entered a not guilty plea or else, I mean, he's caught on video. | ||
| He's guilty of sin. | ||
| Everyone knows it. | ||
| So this is all on video. | ||
| So if you're going to plead not guilty, it means you want to go to trial and you want to say, hey, someone told me to go do this. | ||
| And like, this is why, but this is why it's so incredible to me that the trial, we won't know this until after the election. | ||
| So Citizen journalists and the people need to continue to look into this. | ||
| This guy did not do this on its own accord. | ||
| He was directed by someone to do it. | ||
| And we all need to continue looking into him, his background. | ||
| And remember, this is a guy they're saying is not political. | ||
| He's been a Democrat operative for years. | ||
| He filed a run for U.S. | ||
| Senate as a Democrat last year. | ||
| He's registered as a Democrat. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He requested Democrat primary ballots. | |
| 100%. | ||
| Caroline, we're going to hold you through the break and we can finish this discussion when we get back after the break. | ||
| So you guys are here in studio with Maureen Bannon, not Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| We are going to wrap up with Caroline. | ||
| Caroline, before the break, I know you were mentioning that someone must have been paying Mr. Ringfield Jr. | ||
| in order to steal the key fob. | ||
| Can you please address that once again? | ||
| Yeah, it's just they've been gaslighting us since this arrest saying that they don't think it's politically motivated. | ||
| And so, to me, if it's not political, it's financial, but there's no resale value of these FOBs. | ||
| Now, this key FOB he stole, it accessed only the Election Day tabulators. | ||
| Maricopa County Electoral Court came out and said that in the press conference a couple days after he was arrested. | ||
| Why is that significant? | ||
| It's significant because, reminder, in 2022, In Maricopa County, 61% of the polling stations had the tabulators completely malfunctioned, which caused six-hour lines. | ||
| And these were only the Election Day tabulators. | ||
| In Arizona, you vote for one month. | ||
| For a month, the tabulators work fine. | ||
| All of a sudden, only on Election Day, when Republicans are known to turn out, those tabulators failed. | ||
| And Maricopa County — Carrie Lake sued over this. | ||
| She's been in active lawsuits over this for two years. | ||
| And people said, oh, she's a conspiracy theorist. | ||
| This was just some sort of mistake. | ||
| Well, now the show's no. | ||
| Actually, if a temporary elections worker wants to go take a job at Maricopa County, they have access to an ability to steal key fobs that only access those certain machines and could tamper with them. | ||
| Like, obviously, to me, that is what his intention would have been, or else why would you have stolen these specific fobs? | ||
| It doesn't make And like you said, there's no conspiracies, and my dad says no conspiracies and no coincidences. | ||
| However, the fact that the trial date isn't set until the day after the election, something smells fishy. | ||
| especially when you don't set a trial until after the general election in 2024. | ||
| And like you said, there's no conspiracies and my dad says no conspiracies and no coincidences. | ||
| However, the fact that the trial date isn't set until the day after the election, | ||
| something smells fishy. The fact that they don't want him to come out and speak to the media | ||
| prior to the election. And speaking of that election, I know you are a senior advisor or | ||
| the senior advisor to Carrie Lake and a new poll just came out putting Carrie Lake ahead of Rabun | ||
| Gallego. | ||
| What is the way ahead for Carrie between now and 30 July in order to seal a victory? | ||
| Carrie Lake's race is looking amazing right now, and we're looking good across the country, quite frankly. | ||
| But Carrie specifically, I'd say there's a top three pickup. | ||
| The first one is West Virginia. | ||
| That's safely in the Republican quarter. | ||
| And then you have Montana, which should go our way. | ||
| And then Arizona is now the tightest. | ||
| And I've been saying this for a while. | ||
| President Trump looks great there. | ||
| Carrie Lake looks great. | ||
| In fact, there's been six public polls in the last three weeks, all showing Carrie, either within the margin of error or up. | ||
| And so, this is going to be the tightest, most critical Senate race in the country, I believe. | ||
| Carrie Lake is so needed in the United States Senate. | ||
| Can you just imagine having her in there? | ||
| Like, she will just be incredible. | ||
| And so, the race looks very, very good right now, but we are absolutely not going to get complacent. | ||
| We just launched our bus tour. | ||
| So, Carrie is out four or five stops a day meeting with the people of Arizona. | ||
| And we are moving full speed ahead. | ||
| But, you know, anything that you can do to help Carrie Lake, we're going to be announcing | ||
| a program for people to come, if you don't live in Arizona, but to come out for the two | ||
| weeks leading up to the election and help get out the vote, poll watch, and different | ||
| things like that. | ||
| So, I would encourage people, if you want to organize, to do bus trips out to Arizona | ||
| and help Carrie phone bank from home. | ||
| We'll be rolling that out in the next couple of weeks. | ||
| So, we're excited. | ||
| Carrie looks great. | ||
| The polls look great. | ||
| And I think that her and President Trump are both going to win Arizona and then go to the | ||
| White House and the U.S. Senate. | ||
| That is amazing to hear, Carolina. | ||
| And where can the posse find you and find out more about this bus tour of Cary Lakes? | ||
| They can find me at at Caroline Wren on Twitter, Getter and Truth Social. | ||
| And you can go to carylake.com for updates on her schedule and different volunteer opportunities. | ||
| Thank you so much for joining us tonight, Caroline. | ||
| And talking about President Trump, Mike Lindell was down at the rally, and I know yesterday on The War Room, Jack Posobiec asked Mike if he would be President Trump's VP pick. | ||
| I know that was not announced yesterday at the rally, but the media has now attacked Mike Lindell for what he said on the show. | ||
| Mike, do you want to address what was talked about yesterday with Jack Posobiec? | ||
| I know you didn't Say you'd be the VP, but what did you say? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Well, what I did say, I said, Jack, I said, no, he's never approached me on that. | ||
| And I said, but if Donald Trump asked me to do anything for the administration, I would. | ||
| And I said, I would hope that he would ask me to have something to do with maybe a new election bureau that we would have in the government, because our government deemed our elections critical infrastructure. | ||
| And maybe it'd be part of Homeland Security. | ||
| What a concept. | ||
| Protect our election. | ||
| That's what I said to Jack. | ||
| The media came out today and they've been calling me and attacking going, you asked Donald Trump to run. | ||
| Mike Lindell asked Donald Trump to run our U.S. | ||
| elections. | ||
| I haven't talked to him about that. | ||
| I mean, it's just—this is how they spin stuff. | ||
| Then when you read the article, it doesn't say anything like that in there. | ||
| But the hit job with the headline then gets every other media outlet calling me. | ||
| And I guess, like I've always said, everybody, it—you know. | ||
| At least I have the attack media attacking me so we can get the word out. | ||
| What I did say, and I even said it on stage at the rally, Maureen, is our new program we have. | ||
| And do this in the primaries too, everybody. | ||
| Request your mail-in ballot or your early ballot. | ||
| Get it? | ||
| Don't open it, get it in your hand, and then when you go to vote, if you get there on the day of the election day and they say, oh, I'm sorry, you already voted, you got them on identity theft. | ||
| We lay this out at LyndellPlan.com. | ||
| It's a 10-step thing that you can do that. | ||
| Then it's at the county level. | ||
| Everybody can understand identity theft. | ||
| That DA in Texas a few months ago, that Democrat, she went in to vote. | ||
| They said, I'm sorry, you've already voted. | ||
| She said, no, I haven't. | ||
| It got into a big argument. | ||
| They had to check into it. | ||
| But here, if you have your own ballot, everybody—and remember, it also protects your ballot. | ||
| It pulls it off the dirty voter rolls. | ||
| This is what's needed. | ||
| We're going to need this new evidence anyway, whether a real president gets in or not, if they steal it or he gets in, either way, because he wants to get to same-day voting, paper ballots and counting, like they just did in the UK with a beautiful election, because the people got fed up with the five-year status quo, and they had a real election, not a selection. | ||
| So, I just want to set the record straight there, Maureen. | ||
| And Mike, we also, we need the deals. | ||
| The posse needs the deals. | ||
| So what deals do you have for us today? | ||
| This is great news, everybody. | ||
| We have a new product out that we're making a commercial for today. | ||
| This is the most affordable, best mattress topper in history. | ||
| And they have over, it's our MyPillow patented foam, but also there's over 14,000 support, comfort supports on just the queen alone. | ||
| Get this. | ||
| It's the price point, everybody. | ||
| These are normally $250. | ||
| The queen size, $99.98 to the war room posse. | ||
| King size, $119.98. | ||
| size, 99 98 to the war room posse King size one, 1998 as low as a 69 98 depending on the | ||
| size. | ||
| Mike, you might, we have to jump real quick to Tate, but I am going to bring you back | ||
| on. I promise. | ||
| Tej, Gil, really quickly. | ||
| Sorry, can you just tell us about Warpath Coffee and the deals we can get with Warpath Coffee? | ||
| And I will have you back on to talk more about the incoming and pending World War III. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, sure. | |
| Yeah, Warpath Coffee. | ||
| Veteran-owned, it's the best coffee you can buy. | ||
