Because we're going medieval on these people. | |
| You're not going to free shot all these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||

I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | |
| It's going to happen. | ||

War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Welcome to The War Room. | ||
| It's Natalie G. Winters hosting today, Thursday, August 1st, in the year of our Lord 2024. | ||
| Remember all those calls for unity that you guys, the war room posse, forcibly rejected | ||
| and rightfully so, whether it was coming from Democrats or frankly the establishment flank | ||
| of the Republican Party, which we know they've always used that word to try to draw back | ||
| the concessions that you guys, the grassroots, the maggawing of the Republican Party, have | ||
| always advanced and pushed forward following, of course, the action, action, action commands | ||
| by none other than Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Today is, of course, one month since he was sent to federal prison by Joe Biden, Merrick | ||
| Garland, Kamala Harris, probably Hillary Clinton had a hand in it too, all those wonderful | ||
| people who, like we say, it's not retribution, it's justice that is coming for them. | ||
| But those unity remarks, I don't think, aged too well if you look at the news cycle today, | ||
| just breaking. | ||
| The Trump legal team introducing earlier today a request to sort of deny or strike down the gag order on President Trump from talking about Judge Mershawn and his daughter, Lauren Mershawn, who, if you remember, her campaign consulting firm, one of their top clients, she used to actually work for her, is none other than Kamala Harris. | ||
| You think that that's a glaring conflict of interest. | ||
| Of course, unity only works one way, in the sense that Judge Marshawn, the court denied, the Trump legal team denied their order to strike down that gag order, rendering Trump still unable to talk about it. | ||
| He could face prison time. | ||
| Fines, you name it. | ||
| We're joined by attorney Joseph McBride, who has been a staunch defender of people who have really faced firsthand the persecution and prosecution of Joe Biden's DOJ, especially January 6th defendants. | ||
| But Joseph, I'd love to get your thoughts on sort of just again, lawfare at its finest, this decision to uphold the gag order. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, it's a continuing travesty. | |
| This is a conspiracy to defraud Donald Trump of his legitimate day in court, which he's never gotten, especially there in Manhattan. | ||
| Look, when you have your daughter or any other member of your family working for the opposition candidate, and the person in your courtroom It's the other candidate. | ||
| There's an obvious conflict there of interest. | ||
| So what Judge Marshawn has done is bury the truth in order to put his family and his finances over truth and justice for Donald Trump, the Republican Party and the greater American public. | ||
| It's a travesty. | ||
| It should not be happening. | ||
| It is happening. | ||
| This is a consequence of people being asleep at the wheel for too long. | ||
| Hopefully, people will continue to wake up now before it is too late. | ||
| And you've really stepped up to the plate. | ||
| You know, the motto here in the war room is next man up. | ||
| But you have defended a lot of Americans who, like I rightfully say, have been persecuted by the Biden DOJ. | ||
| They, of course, make sure to prosecute each of these individuals, right, on a separate case so they can kind of lay the predicate or the pretext that we have this domestic terrorism insurgency on our hands. | ||
| But some of the details that you were sharing with me, just abysmal conditions, they're going out of their way to make these people political prisoners. | ||
| Can you walk the audience through, give them some updates on the Americans, the patriots that you have been defending? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| So since the very inception of all these January 6th cases, they have made every step, every part of the process extra difficult for each January 6th-er. | ||
| Lots of these people, as the world knows, went to the Capitol and didn't do a whole lot of anything. | ||
| Some people went in. | ||
| Technically, they should not have done that, but the punishment has to fit the crime. | ||
| Generally, the punishment for a crime after you're convicted is the deprivation of your freedom. | ||
| It is not months in solitary confinement. | ||
| It is not the denial of medical care. | ||
| It is not beatings. | ||
| It is not being stuffed in a mold-filled cell. | ||
| It is not having your life threatened on a regular basis. | ||
| All of these things and more have happened to January 6th defendants. | ||
| Not because of their conduct on January 6th, but because of the political candidate that they supported that day, because of the political party that they belong to, often the color of their skin, and certainly, and very consistently through this process, because of their faith in Jesus Christ. | ||
| If you're an outspoken Christian in these conditions, and if you demand as a Catholic to go to Mass, or as a Christian to have Sunday service, They throw you in solitary confinement. | ||
| If you ask for reading materials that are supportive of your faith, they will give you an opposite periodical from, let's say, something called The Final Call from The Nation of Islam. | ||
| Things like this they have done along the way to add a little bit more elbow grease | ||
| to every push, to add a little bit more darkness to every day, simply because of who these | ||
| people are and what they believe. | ||
| But they've underestimated the power of the American spirit. | ||
| They've underestimated the faith of these good people and the will of a free person, | ||
| of an innocent person, to stand up to injustice and unrighteousness in these situations. | ||
| So a lot of these sentences are going to expire soon. | ||
| The January 6th saga will eventually come to an end. | ||
| Unfortunately, we still have good men and good women in jail. | ||
| You have somebody like Steve Bannon, a month in jail today, should have never been there, travesty of what happened. | ||
| But at the other end of this, we cannot fall asleep at the wheel again. | ||
| Gotta stay awake, gotta stay awoke, gotta stay marching forward, gotta stay active, prayed up, involved, and believe in yourself, believe in the little guy, that you can do something and make a difference. | ||
| I was watching MSNBC this morning, and they were, of course, trying to get a win for the Biden regime covering this alleged hostage swap, hostage release happening. | ||
| And it was really, I think, a glaring moment where the host kept vamping on about how, oh, in Russia, the conditions there are so horrible. | ||
| It's political persecution. | ||
| There are so many people. | ||
| unjustly in prison and the sentences don't match the crime. | ||
| And you know, you sort of take a step back and it's like those remarks, | ||
| you can almost translate them quite, you don't even need to translate them. | ||
| They apply quite perfectly for the situation here in the United States. | ||
| But can you walk the audience through one more time? | ||
| You're saying some of your clients, especially those who are Christian. | ||
| I'm sure straight white males probably don't help too. | ||
| But that when they demand for their, you know, religious rights to be honored or to be able to pursue their Christian faith, that they're being given Nation of Islam materials or not being allowed to pray? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, that is for certain. | |
| For the first two and a half years of the January 6th cases, These men were uniformly denied reading materials that are supportive of their faith, whether it's Bibles or Christian reading materials, Catholic reading materials. | ||
| They were not allowed to go to Mass. | ||
| They were not allowed to go to Sunday service. | ||
| They were kept in their cells, and when they requested something that was spiritual, something that would be uplifting for them, they were given a periodical called The Final Call from the Nation of Islam. | ||
| Which says that the Jews are cockroaches, homosexuals should be put to death, America is the great Satan, and all these other fantastic things. | ||
| And if you participated in the global war on terror in the Middle East, that you are bound for hell, right? | ||
| This is real. | ||
| That happened. | ||
| Now, that should have never happened. | ||
| We raised these issues in court. | ||
| We spoke about this at length. | ||
| The judges didn't care, right? | ||
| That's one example of Dozens of different examples of tortures, mental, spiritual, psychological that happened to these good men. | ||
| Lots of times these guys are Marine Corps veterans, Army veterans who went to Afghanistan and Iraq living with PTSD. | ||
| They have all types of medical conditions. | ||
| They have a litany of medical things that they need to keep their health up on a regular | ||
| basis. | ||
| Not only are they routinely denied medical care, they're purposely given the wrong medication. | ||
| All these bad things happen, and it's for the specific purpose of breaking the spirit | ||
| and breaking the minds of these good men. | ||
| Look, when you have a mental disability, a mental handicap, whether you were born with it or whether you got it through a war, you have it, right? | ||
| It's a condition. | ||
| And international law, the Nelson Mandela rules say you shouldn't be in solitary confinement for one day if you have any type of mental defect. | ||
| Yet these men are routinely kept in there for months and weeks at a time. | ||
| They do this because of who they are, what they believe in, often the color of their skin, and most definitely because of the political candidate that they support. | ||
| Well, I think what you're saying gets to the heart of the issue, which is that it's not a result of incompetence, right? | ||
| It's intentional. | ||
| Whether you look at things like the assassination attempt, frankly, you look at the origins of COVID, you look at election fraud, you look at law, you look at all of this stuff through that lens. | ||
| And I think you can draw a nice through line, especially on the faith issue to even, for example, the recent Olympics opening ceremony that we discussed here that went viral for being so blasphemous and just offensive to the Christian faith, | ||
| frankly to anyone. | ||
| It was so disgusting and just repulsive to watch. | ||
| But when you see stories come out, for example, not too long ago, a leading news presenter | ||
| for the BBC was arrested and charged with child porn, having dozens of images, severe | ||
| offenses. | ||
| When you see these people who are in positions of power having such perverted and just degenerate mindsets that I think go quite nicely with, you know, anti-Christian ideologies, what do you make of that? | ||
| Especially these are the same people who are, you know, calling us conspiracy theorists, calling some of your other clients, you know, they're preying on young men. | ||
| What do you say to that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, look, the liberals who participate in the mainstream media, who own the mechanisms of power in the deep state, whether it's in government or in media, they have their own religion. | |
| It's anti-Christian, it's often anti-Jewish, it's often anti-Ebrahimic faith. | ||
| Number one. | ||
| Number two, they have their own moral agenda that they're trying to stuff down our throat perpetually, 24-7, 365 days a year. | ||
| Years ago, you know, it was a little bit different. | ||
| We saw that once the floodgates were opened, right, they went after our institutions, the marriage. | ||
| They went after, they shut our churches down during COVID. | ||
| They have songs that say, we're coming for your children. | ||
| And if you step up, and if you speak out against them, they all move in unison to cancel you at once. | ||
| The banks will debank you. | ||
| Social media, until Elon Musk took over Twitter, X, will de-platform you. | ||
| Google will kick you off of their App Store, and so on and so forth. | ||
| They will move in unison to target you in order to silence you, to disenfranchise you | ||
| from being able to speak out and participate in the free marketplace of ideas, which happens | ||
| often online these days. | ||
| But that's not an excuse for any of us to stop. | ||
| But when you see someone like the gentleman in the BBC, who went after my client, Andrew | ||
| Tate, who I represent, and Tristan Tate, love them, hate them, disagree with them, don't | ||
| disagree with them, the BBC has spent millions and millions of dollars, documentaries, movies, | ||
| investigations to go after these good men who are innocent, right? | ||
| And they've been accused of gross things, human trafficking, sexual misconduct. | ||
| All of it's false. | ||
| All of it is unequivocally Not true. | ||
| And when you have a man like this who has gone after Andrew online and on the news on a regular basis, meanwhile, this is somebody who's been hoarding and involved in child porn. | ||
| I mean, this is sick. | ||
| But do they care? | ||
| Will they hold themselves accountable? | ||
| No, they will not. | ||
| They will simply pluck him out, put somebody else in there who's just like him, and they'll continue to go after, whether it's Andrew Tate, Donald Trump, you, or me, or whoever it is, because we refuse to bow to them, because we refuse to give in to their system of belief, because we refuse to consume and align ourselves with their way of thinking. | ||
| This is a battle for the soul of our country, for the soul of the world, for the soul of our families and our children. | ||
| It is the great battle between good and evil. | ||
| You, I, and everybody else watching this show have to make sure that we are on the right side of it. | ||
| And obviously, Natalie, if your viewers are watching this show, we already know the inference is true that they are on the right side of this battle between good and evil. | ||
| And Joseph, if people want to follow you and stay up to date with your hot takes on Twitter, on X, where can they go to do all that? | ||

| I am at McBrideLawNYC across all social media platforms. | ||
| That's where you can find the latest and greatest in my cases and you know the controversial things that I'm saying about whatever's going on in the world today. | ||
| Thank you so much for joining us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God bless you Natalie. | |
| Thank you, you too. | ||
| We'll be joined by Richard Barris after the break, walking through some new polling that he's conducted. | ||
| But in the meantime, you can go to birchgold.com slash Bannon, the gold standard, no pun intended, in my opinion, for financial advice. | ||
| We know the Fed, Janet Yellen, is not going to give you the straight truth. | ||
| That's why you've got to talk to people like Philip Patrick over there, birchgold.com slash Bannon. | ||
| And while you're at it, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com to get their wonderful beef liver supplements, the crisps too. | ||
| They're so good. | ||
| I know Steve loves them. | ||
| I don't know if they have those in prison. | ||
| I'm sure he'll look forward to having some of those when he's out. | ||
| Three months from now, we should maybe start a countdown. | ||
| But like I said, that's sacred human health. | ||
| The grass-fed beef liver will be joined after the break by the one and only CEO of Big Data Pool, Rich Barris, here in the War Room. | ||
| We'll be right back. | ||
| We're looking at a much, potentially much lower turnout this go-around in 2024 than 2020. | ||
| So this is almost certain to vote in the election. | ||
| You look post-debate 2024, look at that. | ||
| It was just 55% of registered voters. | ||
| It was actually the same as it was pre-debate 55%. | ||
| It was significantly lower than it was in 2020 during the summer when it was 60%. | ||
| But look at where we are now. | ||
| We are now at 62% after the RNC, after Kamala Harris gets into this race, and that is actually a higher number Then we what we saw during the summer of 2020 when it was 60%. | ||
| So at this particular point, as we look at the math right now, if we are trusting what voters are saying, it's actually possible we'll see higher turnout than what we saw in 2020, which is what you pointed out was record turnout. | ||
| So quite the shift here. | ||
| It's not just enthusiasm. | ||
| It's actually people saying that they're going to go out and almost certainly vote. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If you believe what voters are saying. | |
| I mean, if we don't, then this is all not going to work. | ||
| Well, you know, it's all funny money anyway. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Why? | ||
| Why is it? | ||
| Well, you know, throughout this entire cycle, we've been pointing out that there were a ton of voters Who dislike both Biden and Donald Trump. | ||
| So pre-RNC, right? | ||
| 20% in the New York Times polling. | ||
| 20% in Ipsos polling. | ||
| Look at where we are today. | ||
| Look how dramatically these numbers have dropped. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| New York Times down to 8% who say they dislike Harris and Trump. | ||
| How about Ipsos? | ||
| The same pattern. | ||
|
unidentified
|
7%. | |
| This is very different now than what we saw prior. | ||
| looks a lot more like 2020 when it was just 3% who disliked both major party candidates, | ||
| and very much unlike what we saw in 2016 when it was 18% in the exit polls, which looked | ||
| a lot more like what we saw earlier in the year. | ||
| So the fact is, voters are much more apt to at least like one of the candidates, and I | ||
| think that's part of the reason why voters are much more likely to turn out, because | ||
| if you dislike both major party candidates, why actually turn out and vote? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jr. | |
| was counting on, I guess, on some level. | ||
| That was what he was counting on. | ||
| In fact, that was his core group of voters, right? | ||
| Those who disliked both Joe Biden and Donald Trump. | ||
| So what's happened to him now? | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| He was at 15% December. | ||
| He was at 10% post-debate. | ||
| He has dropped all the way down to 5%. | ||
| The fact that Harrison— He is not happy. | ||
| He is not happy about it. | ||
| He is not happy about it. | ||
| The fact that the voters actually do like one of the major party candidates really is devastating his campaign. | ||
| He might not even reach 5%. | ||
| I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up with 2 or 3%. | ||
| Not exactly a strong showing for someone who entered the race with some possibilities. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, it's good to see you. | |
| Welcome back to The War Room. | ||
| We're joined by The People's Pundit, Richard Barris. | ||
| I know you got a new poll out walking us through the latest Trump v. Harris, but before we jump into that, I would love to just get your thoughts on That's sort of interesting poll that CNN conducted in terms of momentum and support and actual voter turnout. | ||
| What you think is driving that and the sort of ramifications of those skyrocketing numbers? | ||
| They're making that, and thanks for having me, as always. | ||
| They're making it out, Natalie, that's a revelation. | ||
| In our polling, it's been like this for months. | ||
| We have been saying that this turnout could exceed 24 if this keeps up. | ||
| Now, it doesn't always, and the research actually shows that self-reported likelihood to vote is not the only thing you want to rely on. | ||
| But then again, in recent years, pollsters made that mistake in 16. | ||
| They screened a lot of Trump's vote out. | ||
| This year, it has been both sides, but when Democrat enthusiasm has fallen, it did not fall for Republicans. | ||
| And the first-time voter, which is a really big difference this year, the first-time voter, and not necessarily young, just the first-time voter, is a very, very heavy Trump vote. | ||
| So, we were on this for months. | ||
| I don't understand why. | ||
| Maybe because it's like CNN or the New York Times poll, and they're like, I don't know, more important or something. | ||
| But the fact is that other people, myself and others, have been showing that this could be high. | ||
| And even when we had months where Democrats were low, it's like, Natalie, they're going to gather those votes anyway. | ||
| So we were expecting them to harvest as millions, millions, you know, 70, 70 plus at least for the Democratic nominee, no matter who it was. | ||
| And walk us through, like I said, you got a new poll out, I believe today or yesterday. | ||
| Feel free to walk the audience through the crosstabs, kind of your top line findings on the state of the race. | ||
| Yeah, on uncertainty to vote and likelihood, it's true. | ||
| Democrats popped up. | ||
| I think that's a big part of why the race looks like it's tightening the way it is. | ||
| There's A large percentage of black voters who are more likely to want to be interviewed this month, metro suburban women, so like Democratic groups, a subgroup of voters who are under 30 that appear to have gone back to Kamala Harris. | ||
| But the former president in all of these groups is still doing well enough, much better than recent Republican nominees, which is why we have the race still So basically, when you lean people who are undecided, we have Donald Trump at 50.6, we have Kamala Harris at 49.4, which is closer than it was with Joe Biden, but people have to keep this in perspective. | ||
| Joe Biden was in a 08 Bush style collapse before they pushed him out and they did this. | ||
| So the fact the Republican is still even ahead on the popular vote is still significant. | ||
| Or he's in our polling and he's another polling and some I know they're they're swinging wildly. | ||
| Public opinion doesn't swing like that. | ||
| That is a response bias. | ||
| Public opinion does not shift seven points, 10 points in a month. That is the pollster | ||
| got a different group of people who are more likely to talk that month. Honestly, he | ||
| brought up double haters too, which if I don't know how much time we have in this segment, but | ||
| that's a big deal because Donald Trump's favorability rating skyrocketed. It has popped. It's | ||
| been on this trajectory for more than, I mean, nearly two years. Normally it takes | ||
| former presidents 10 years. | ||
| You know, a while, to recoup their favorability image and to see an increase in the retrospective approval rating. | ||
| This month in our polling, for the first time since January 2017, when he was sworn into office, Donald Trump was positive with favorability and a majority had a favorable opinion of him, and his retrospective approval rating was positive and it was a majority who approved of him. | ||
| Kamala Harris's image increased, too. | ||
| It recovered somewhat, too, because she's been very unpopular, but not anywhere near that. | ||
| And she's still negative three on one and negative five on the other. | ||
| So there's still more people who strongly disapprove than strongly approve. | ||
| So, you know, we do see movement. | ||
| We just don't see some of the movement you're seeing in some of the other polls. | ||
| And it looks like the top line from this poll, you've got Harris at 45.5%, Trump at 46.7% and 1.2% split. | ||
| If you want to walk the audience through that, but also just from your sense, if you think that that chasm as people get to know Harris more is going to widen or shrink. | ||
| Yeah, that's before leaners, before we force undecideds to tell us, like, look, if it was today, who are you going to vote for? | ||
| And interestingly, the margin doesn't change. | ||
| They split the leaners about 50-50 and Harris doesn't catch up. | ||
| Even Biden was winning those leaners. | ||
| So, you know, we have two years on the question of whether it's going to, you know, change going forward here. | ||
| We have two years of polling Donald Trump versus Kamala Harris. | ||
| And for two years she's been unpopular and for two years she's trailed him. | ||
| This is very clearly a reaction, you know, an increase of excitement that thank God we don't have to deal with that guy who showed up at the debate, but then also the media is doing everything in their power to make, to revive her image. | ||
| It's going to be a waiting game. | ||
| I wish I could say for sure how that's going to go, but as of right now, it's a waiting game. | ||
| They're going to try to run out the clock and hide her because once Americans get, you know, once they see her again, right, and when she's vetted, going to what you just said, they've done this. | ||
| They've had this song, you know, they've done this song and dance already. | ||
| They did it in 2020 when she ran and there was a small honeymoon period after they were inaugurated where she was positive and then she cratered shortly thereafter. | ||
| So if they do put her on the trail and make her more visible, I really think that this will be the high point for her and this will be the, you know, this will be the top of the peak and she'll fall right back down again because that's what tends to happen with public opinion. | ||
| People have their opinions. | ||
| Maybe there's an event that briefly changes it or makes somebody look a little bit more | ||
| positive. | ||
| Trump's image increase has been ongoing for a while. | ||
| It's been a product of people saying, I remember when Donald Trump was president and now I'm | ||
| looking at how things are going now. | ||
| So I'm making an A and a B comparison and little bit or a little bit over time. | ||
| He has improved. | ||
| Hers is a reaction to short term events. | ||
| It really hasn't been earned yet. | ||
| It's been, you know, the media has been doing, you know, their best to give her that boost. | ||
| And I just don't think typically that doesn't last. | ||
| So, you know, if past is prologue, she'll have to earn that. | ||
| And I don't know that she can. | ||
| So this will be the if that's the case, this will be the high point for her and she will go back down again. | ||
| Interestingly enough, when we ask people who they trust on these issues as well. | ||
| Donald Trump is running away with it. | ||
| I don't know if they have that graphic. | ||
| You don't have to show it, but I can just tell you some of those margins are closer. | ||
| He no longer has like a 15, 18 point lead on the economy like he did over Joe Biden, but he still has a 10 point lead. | ||
| He has a 25 point lead on immigration. | ||
| So these are the top issues that voters tell us they're going to vote on. | ||
| Until that changes, her lead is at risk or her surge, if you want to call it a surge. | ||
| Her surge is at risk and she has yet to take the lead in our poll. | ||
| But it's just it tells me that her support is really soft and it's a reaction to short term | ||
| events. We'll see. And Rich, we'll have to have you back on because I want to walk through how | ||
| you were sort of pointing out the polling in Arizona that showed basically the Senate primary | ||
| shaking out the way it did. Also, you know, President Trump having a nice solid lead. | ||
| But I've got to let you go. But in the meantime, if people want to read your work, follow you on | ||
| social media, stay up to date with all of your analysis and wonderful polling data. Not like the | ||
| CNN weird polls that even their own host says, why do we even believe this stuff? | ||

| Thank you so much. | ||

| Empire will be joined after the break by investigative reporter James Lynch on how, believe it or not, the FBI is restarting their meetings with big tech companies as we're barreling towards the 2024 election, the same foreign influence task force that they use to say that the Hunter Biden hard | ||

| Welcome back to the War Room. | ||
| Like I told you before the break, the Praetorian Guard, that is the censorship industrial complex, they are rearing their ugly head as we barrel towards the 2024 election, though I guess the question remains if they actually ever went anywhere. | ||
| We're joined by James Lynch, an investigative reporter. | ||
| The National Review, you have a new story up walking through how for the 2024 election, the FBI, everyone's favorite, has resumed meetings, regular meetings, with social media | ||
| companies ahead of the 2024 election to talk censorship. Can you walk the audience through sort | ||
| of the developments on this front, but also how you came to the story in the sense that it's | ||
| sort of a tacit admission, right? They're sort of trying to cover their bases with it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. So I came to this story from a report from the DOJ's Inspector General Office about | |
| these meetings and what the FBI is doing to counter foreign threats. And we've heard a lot | ||
| of language the last few years about foreign threats, whether it's from Russia, China, or Iran. | ||
| And we've seen many times that the fears about foreign threats have often led to domestic | ||
| censorship, pressure on social media companies to censor certain forms of speech, like the | ||
| Hunter Biden laptop or the lab leak theory of coronavirus origins. | ||
| So what we have here is that the FBI is going to be resuming that coordination, And the Department of Justice said so in a memo that was contained in the bottom of this report. | ||
| Looks like we may be having some connection. | ||
| I think we got James back. | ||
| Do we have? | ||
| Okay, there we go. | ||
| So can you walk us through this one specific commission, the Foreign Influence Task Force, and sort of its historical involvement in what I would say is election interference, at least when it comes to adjudicating the Hunter Biden hard drive? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, so the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force is going to be doing a lot of the outreach with local FBI offices, according to the memo. | |
| And from the Twitter files, we saw that the Foreign Influence Task Force played a major role in pressuring Twitter and eventually having Twitter censor the Hunter Biden laptop ahead of the 2020 presidential election. | ||
| And it was based on the false pretenses that, you know, this was hacked materials, that this was Russian disinformation when even the Biden Justice Department has admitted that the laptop was valid and the hard drive data was legitimate. | ||
| So the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force will be at it again this time around. | ||
| We don't know what those meetings are going to look like or what they're going to be discussing. | ||
| So we'll have to see eventually what goes on there. | ||
| But for now, it's hard to say what they're going to talk about. | ||
| And in your reporting on this, you know, they love to play the game where they say that we're conspiracy theorists for alleging ulterior motives, right? | ||
| And these kind of government backed censorship campaigns, even though they do outsource a lot of this stuff to NGO type groups to sort of curtail our First Amendment rights. | ||
| But then they also aren't really forthright with any of these programs and what they're doing. | ||
| Like you said, you came to the story sort of back-ending it through a report, through a separate agency. | ||
| In terms of trying to reach out to the FBI, you know, to talk to either their spokespeople or just individuals who are affiliated with the effort, is there any effort for transparency on their end? | ||
| Or are they just, you know, sitting back in their nice Yeah, so they're claiming that they're going to be releasing their new standard operating procedure for these meetings. | ||
| theorists while they don't tell us what they're actually doing despite having | ||
| such influence over the ability to tip the scales on social media platforms. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, so they're claiming that they're gonna be releasing their new standard | |
| operating procedure for these meetings. They're saying they're gonna set up a | ||
| website so that people know what these guidelines are, but it's, you know, it's | ||
| impossible to say until they actually tell us things. | ||
| FBI Director Wray testified last week and he was asked about it by one of the Republicans on the Judiciary Committee. | ||
| And Wray basically didn't really tell her anything about what was going on. | ||
| The only knowledge we really have of this has been from the Twitter files, from the court case that went to the Supreme Court and from the House Republican investigations. | ||
| So right now it's hard to say really what they're going to be discussing. | ||
| And James, if people want to stay up to date with your reporting on this, follow you for your other stories, where can they go to do all that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, they can follow me on XJamesLynch32, or they can read me in National Review. | |
| I'm pretty vocal about this sort of stuff, and yeah, there's my profile on X. Thank you so much for joining us, James, and thank you for your reporting. | ||
| Now, I have a parody ad. | ||
| I'll make sure to put that disclaimer there, otherwise Gavin Newsom might get mad at me. | ||
| You guys know we focus on signal, not noise here in the War Room, and while the ad that I'm about to play you is certainly humorous in nature, we'll be joined by the individual who created it behind it. | ||
| It's gotten millions of views, so much so that Gavin Newsom is going to be instituting legislation to ban him and others from making similar type ads. | ||
| I want to drill down On the signal behind the left's response to this, but Denver, let's roll the parody ad. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I, Kamala Harris, senior Democrat candidate for president, because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility of the debate. | |
| Thanks, Joe. | ||
| I was selected because I am the ultimate diversity hire. | ||
| I'm both a woman and a person of color. | ||
| So if you criticize anything I say, you're both sexist and racist. | ||
| I may not know the first thing about running the country, but remember, That's a good thing if you're a deep state puppet. | ||
| I had four years under the tutelage of the ultimate deep state puppet, a wonderful mentor, Joe Biden. | ||
| Joe taught me rule number one, carefully hide your total incompetence. | ||
| I take insignificant things and I discuss them as if they're significant. | ||
| And I believe that exploring the significance of the insignificant is in itself significant. | ||
| We're talking about the significance of the passage of time. | ||
| Right? The significance of the passage of time. | ||
| So when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time, | ||
|
unidentified
|
and there is such great significance to the passage of time. | |
| Another trick is trying to sound black. | ||
| I pretend to celebrate Kwanzaa, and in my speeches I always do my best Barack Obama impression. | ||
| So hear me when I say, I know Donald Trump's type! | ||
| And okay, look, maybe my work addressing the root causes of the border crisis were catastrophic, but my knowledge of international politics is truly shocking. | ||
| The United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the Republic of North Korea. | ||
| It is an alliance that is strong and enduring. | ||
| And just remember when voting this November, it is important to see what can be unburdened by what has been. | ||
| And by what has been, I mean Joe Biden. | ||
| Do you think the country went to sh** over the past four years? | ||
| You ain't seen nothing yet. | ||
| Fantastic. | ||
| You know you're over the target when the New York Times is writing hit pieces about parody ads that you're making. | ||
| We're joined by YouTuber Mr. Reagan, goes by the name Chris Coles. | ||
| Chris, thank you so much for joining us. | ||
| I'd love for you to walk the audience through sort of the thought process behind the ad, but more importantly, after you released it, the firestorm that broke loose. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh my gosh, yeah. | |
| Well, you know what's funny? | ||
| I've made parody ads before. | ||
| I made a Gillette ad, which is one of the original videos that made me a successful YouTuber. | ||
| I made parody ads about Joe Biden when he was running. | ||
| But this one really, I don't know, this one really kicked off. | ||
| I think primarily, obviously, because Elon Musk saw it, liked it, reposted it, and it's gotten over 130 million views. | ||
| And I don't know, I feel like there's a couple of things going on here. | ||
| One, it does, in fact, have Kamala Harris say things that I think people believe are true, right, but that she would never say in an ad. | ||
| But, you know, also, I think there is the controversy of the fact that I used AI. | ||
| I mean, Kamala Harris's voice say the things about her that everybody knew were true, but that she would never say. | ||
| And I think this in particular cut the left very, very deeply. | ||
| Because, you know, it resonated. | ||
| It resonated with people all over the world, not just even in America, like everywhere. | ||
| And so people thought it was funny. | ||
| And they hate that this kind of stuff is attacking them because I think The left is used to having comedy punch right. | ||
| You know, comedy usually hits Donald Trump or hits us on the right, conservatives. | ||
| It's very rare that you see something that's comedic and it punches left and it actually hits them and it hits them well to such a degree that, you know, it may potentially impact the race. | ||
| And I certainly hope that it does. | ||
| And juxtapose this with what we were getting into last segment, right? | ||
| You see the FBI coming out in full force to censor Americans when they say anything that's frankly pro-Trump. | ||
| And now you see Gavin Newsom tweeting out that he's going to be introducing legislation to ban ads like yours. | ||
| Just the hypocrisy, the double standard there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, it seems it's weird to me because this is such an obvious satire, right? | |
| So obviously parody. | ||
| In the in the ad, I have Kamala Harris say, you know, I'm the ultimate diversity hire. | ||
| She says, I'm a deep state puppet. | ||
| She says, Joe Biden taught me to hide my total incompetence, all these kinds of things. | ||
| You know, you watch it for 20 seconds, you know pretty much instantaneously that it's a joke. | ||
| The AI was never intended to mislead anybody. | ||
| And they know that. | ||
| They know that the AI was only meant as a tool to facilitate the joke, right? | ||
| They know this. | ||
| So the idea of censoring this is curtailing free speech. | ||
| They know it's curtailing free speech. | ||
| They know it's unconstitutional. | ||
| So I think it's a little bit of virtue signaling. | ||
| It's a little bit of pearl clutching. | ||
| I think there is a little bit of fear, a little bit of concern that, you know, | ||
| cause I could have done something different, right? | ||
| I could have made her say something in a like a leaked phone call. | ||
| And the AI, they keep saying on the news, which I don't even think is that good, but they keep insisting like, it's so good, you cannot differentiate it from Kamala Harris's voice. | ||
| It's so scary. | ||
| So I think there is a little bit of fear there. | ||
| But primarily, I do think it's virtue signaling. | ||
| You know, anyone with an IQ above 30 knows that this is satire. | ||
| They just want to attack Elon Musk. | ||
| I don't even know if Gavin Newsom saw the ad. | ||
| I think he just heard other people talk about it. | ||
| And yeah, it's a joke. | ||
| It's obviously a joke. | ||
| Everybody knows it's a joke. | ||
| They're going to do anything they can to win, though, because I do think that their candidate, Kamala Harris, is fatally flawed. | ||
| And what is, you know, your message to whether it's the New York Times coming after you doing these hit pieces? | ||
| Is that going to make you stop putting out content? | ||
| You know, they love to try to, you know, intimidate and shame us conservatives into going silent, but are you going to stop? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, you know, actually, I wasn't even going to make a second follow-up video immediately. | |
| I was, you know, maybe down the line, make another one. | ||
| But because Gavin Newsom said that he wanted to make what I was doing illegal, as soon as Kamala had a second ad out, I immediately made a parody of that. | ||
| So there's a second part to these ads. | ||
| There's two parodies now. | ||
| If you go to my X account or if you go to my YouTube channel, you can see the second video. | ||
| And I think it's even better than the first one. | ||
| Chris, thank you so much for joining us. | ||
| If people one more time want to follow you, watch the ad, get your show, where can they go to do that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, go to MrReaganUSA on X or go to my MrReagan YouTube channel, which is heavily shadow banned, so please subscribe to that. | |
| Thank you so much for joining us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Of course. | ||
| And we got a minute. | ||
| I want to bring on our next guest, the president of the Oil and Gas Workers Association. | ||
| Real quick, Matt, bring the audience up to speed. | ||
| Give us one minute on why you guys a few months ago endorsed President Trump and why that endorsement still stands against Kamala Harris. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, let's just say that President Trump is the most pro-American oil and gas workers president ever. | |
| Under President Trump's leadership and through federal agencies, we were able to roll back costly, unnecessary environmental regulations that really hindered USA production, hurt U.S. | ||
| service companies, and cost a lot of Americans our jobs. | ||
| With President Trump back in the White House, we will be able not only to return to energy independence, but to achieve American energy dominance. | ||
| And all those of us who have watched Kamala Harris flip-flop on when she said that she was completely in favor of banning fracking and now she's trying to walk that back. | ||
| We all remember that Kamala Harris once said she believed Joe Biden's sexual assault accusers and then became his running mate. | ||
| Kamala Harris will say and do anything to get elected and we know just based upon her record that she and whomever she chooses as her running mate will do everything they can to hurt USA Oil and Gas. | ||
| And Matt, I'll hold you through the break because I want to get into how their policies have helped prop up Maduro in Venezuela and just create global chaos. | ||
| But Warren Posse, before we jump to break, you got to go to PublicSquare.com. | ||
| If you don't buy into the climate cult that Matt's organization always, I think maybe | ||
| you're like their number one enemy, I would say, as leading the Oil and Gas Workers Association | ||
| here in the United States, Public Square, I'm sure would love you guys. | ||
| They love this country. | ||
| They probably love fossil fuels too. | ||
| It's why you got to go to publicsquare.com. | ||
| No climate change cultists there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll be right back after this short break. | |
| Climate gangsters are the group of individuals, career bureaucrats, who have been installed | ||
| by what we call the deep state into every agency and department in the United States | ||
| Had Donald Trump not won in 2016, he would not have exposed the flank of the Deep State and their weapon of choice, the two-tier system of justice. | ||
| From Russiagate, to Hunter Biden's laptop, to Joe Biden's classified documents case, to January 6th, to the 51 Intel letter, and everything in between. | ||
| We would never have learned that. | ||
| These people are dangerous and vindictive, learning from their mistakes and perfecting ways to hide their corruption. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is finally time for a straightforward assessment of the state of our nation. | |
| And we're going to start with the first question. | ||
| And that is, how do we know that we're going to win? | ||
| And the answer is, we're going to have to look at the facts. | ||
| And we're going to have to look at the facts. | ||
| But part of the reason that the Maduro regime was propped up for so long was because of the energy policies that | ||
| Biden and Harris were pursuing here, making it harder on domestic oil and gas producers. | ||
| Meanwhile, allowing foreign countries, China, Venezuela, all the bad hombres, as President Trump would say. | ||
| Can you walk us through some of those policies? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure, when we look at Venezuela, how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris both eased sanctions on Venezuela in order to increase output down there. | |
| Well, that has only funded the socialist dictator Nicolas Maduro. | ||
| You also look at how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris first lifted sanctions on and then reinstated but still did not enforce oil sanctions on Iran, the world's number one state sponsor of terrorism. | ||
| Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's policies have been completely anti-American oil and gas workers. | ||
| And while we look at the price per barrel and rig counts, and usually people look at those as the sole barometers to the health of our industry, what people need to pay attention to is how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris both have propped up foreign countries with far less environmentally conscious standards and really funded terrorism around the world. | ||
| And it's not even just anti-American energy. | ||
| I think it's frankly just anti-American. | ||
| I mean, I broke a story not too long ago talking about how the DHS was wargaming scenarios whereby the push to green energy would leave hundreds of thousands of Americans with rolling blackouts and no power. | ||
| Can you walk us through how some of these policies that they're pushing almost seem to be intentionally designed, right, to bring America to the brink of, frankly, energy collapse? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's it. | |
| And when you look at Joe Biden and the EPA's methane emissions rules, what that does is really hurt some of the smaller producers and power plants. | ||
| And so what that does is increase the cost of energy. | ||
| And then, of course, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and these radical environmentalists bring in this highly subsidized, completely unreliable wind and solar that's, a lot of it, imported from China. | ||
| And that makes Americans dependent upon these green fantasies that just won't power their homes or their cars or And no matter how Harris tries to spin it, your association's message to her on her energy record. | ||
| Will you guys be flipping your endorsement from Trump? | ||
| and gas is reliable, affordable energy. | ||
| And no matter how Harris tries to spin it, your association's message to her on her energy | ||
| record, will you guys be flipping your endorsement from Trump? | ||
| Any chance of that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not one single chance. | |
| Kamala Harris can flip-flop all day long. | ||
| We're sticking with President Trump from here all the way to November 5th and for the next four years. | ||
| We love it. | ||
| I'm sure we have a lot of oil and gas workers in the audience. | ||
| If they want to get involved, support you guys, figure out what you're about, where can they go to follow you on social media but find out about the association? | ||
