Speaker Time Text
steve bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
unidentified
Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
steve bannon
I got a free shot of all these networks lying about the people.
jonathan lemire
The people have had a belly full of it.
peter navarro
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
MAGA media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
unidentified
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
steve bannon
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
peter navarro
Navarro for Bannon.
Jump into your rocket ship.
We are heading out right now.
The state of Washington and one of my favorites, Joe Kent.
He's in a tough race.
Shouldn't be tough if he had complete backing of the Republican Party, but he's a warrior in many senses of the words.
You know him well here, Posse.
Joe, my brother, welcome to the War Room once again.
Following your race closely, can you let us know where things are at right now?
joe kent
Yeah, I think we're in a pretty good spot right now.
We're being outspent by about four or five to one.
But all the Democrats really have is lies and millions of dollars to spread those lies.
I've debated my opponent now twice.
You guys can find those on my website, JoeKentForCongress.com.
Grace did a great job of putting up a bunch of clips from our first debate.
The bottom line is, these Democrats can't defend their policies.
When it comes to the inflation, when it comes to the open border, and even the more outlandish things like voting to let boys into the little girls' room and men to compete against women on the athletics field, the Democrats just simply can't defend these, and my opponent is no different.
She's doing everything that she can to distance herself from Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, but she's voted in lockstep with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
I'm debating her again tonight, 7pm Pacific Time on Coin.
Yeah, one more. Actually, we have two more this week, so one more tonight.
peter navarro
Yeah. So Cameron, Mr.
Producer, as Mark Levin says, let's grab some clips from the debate and play them on Wednesday if we can.
So how do these debates go?
Do you have the same problem, Joe, that Trump and Vance have with left-wing moderators?
You get a fair shot with these people.
joe kent
How does it work? The first two debates we've had have been very fair, actually.
I've been pleasantly surprised.
We had a local group called the Civil Dialogue Project.
They hosted our first one that actually had a pretty robust audience.
They did a great job.
We actually had two minutes to give answers, which I thought was great because it let us really expand on our policy positions, which is something she has a hard time doing.
She has to spend the majority of two minutes trying to deflect And divert from what she's actually been doing in Congress.
The last one we had, it was on KATU, which is more of a mainstream.
And I thought the moderator was very fair.
I'm cautiously optimistic about tonight as well.
I've done interviews with this network before.
That were relatively fair.
So hopefully they continue that tonight.
And then same thing with the one later on in the week.
We had a pretty fair shake with them last time as well.
Because really right now, I mean, I think it's pretty cut and dry.
She has a voting record and she simply cannot defend her voting record.
These policies are really indefensible.
peter navarro
KTU, what city is that out of?
joe kent
So, unfortunately, all of our media is out of Portland, right across the river.
So my media market is the Portland media market.
So these are all Portland-based stations.
peter navarro
So Portland stations are hosting Washington State debates.
And do you go to the studio?
You have to, like, schlep over to Portland and all that stuff?
joe kent
Yeah, we just got to drive across the bridge over to Portland for all of these.
The one that was in person that Grace did a bunch of cuts of, that was actually in the district with a local group.
peter navarro
And do you have a live audience, or is it just one moderator?
Flesh it out for the audience, because these are fascinating.
Everybody watches the national debates, but these congressional debates and local debates, play it out for us.
joe kent
How does it go? Yeah, so the first debate we did that Grace did a bunch of great clips from, we had an audience probably of close to 200, and it was a pretty mixed bag.
We had a lot of her ardent supporters there, a lot of my ardent supporters there, but then also it was on a college campus, so we had a lot of people from the campus, a lot of people from the community.
I thought that was probably the best one just because the community got to engage so much with the candidates.
peter navarro
How many people were in that audience?
And, you know, a college campus, did they hassle you like college campuses tend to do?
joe kent
No, it's a community college, so you get a good mix of students.
There's a lot of people that are coming back to education later on in life.
There's a bunch of technical skills that are there as well.
So it's not your typical liberal arts campus at all.
It was probably about 200 or so in attendance, and it was mixed.
We had a good representative from my supporters, her supporters, and then just a lot of people who I actually felt were genuinely undecided going in and coming out.
I think I fared a little bit better than she did, but people can watch it and And make their own assessment.
All the other ones we've done, like the one tonight and the one we have later on this week, they've just been for TV. And so it's just been myself, my opponent, and then the moderator.
Answers are really limited and constrained to about one minute with a strict time cap.
As opposed to the first one we did, I think that was more free flowing because we weren't as time constrained.
We weren't constrained by TV. Is she learning?
peter navarro
I mean, I remember when I ran for office, had a bunch of debates with this woman, Susan Golding, and every good idea that I came up with, like in the first debate, she laid out on the table before I could get to in the second debate.
She anticipated all that.
You know, it's like Kamala needs a MAGA hat now.
Is your opponent trying to do any of that crap, or are you trying to pin her down?
I mean... What's that look like?
joe kent
It's funny you say that, because earlier this summer I was saying by October that my opponent was going to have a MAGA hat on, and I've pretty much been correct.
When you listen to her rhetoric, she sounds very much like a populist—I mean, she is one of the so-called blue-dog Democrats, but that's why it's so important to contrast what her record is, because her record's the same as Kamala and Joe Biden.
So yeah, she does a little bit of modulating her positions here and there.
But my goal is to hold her accountable for her actual voting record.
But look, the Democrats are all doing what they can right now to distance themselves from Harris and from Waltz and from all these failed policies.
And they're pretending like they have some fresh new vision for the future.
When, in fact, what they voted for for the last two years, in my opponent's case, or four years in the national stage, I mean, we're all seeing the results of that right now.
So what's interesting is I think they have a very difficult task.
They have to sell to the American people this alternate reality.
When my opponent says, like, the economy is going great, all I have to do is say, well, go to the grocery store and go to the gas pump.
The economy is not doing great.
It's the same thing, too. With the open southern border we have a fentanyl epidemic in our district and so for her to vote to keep the border open she's having to do a lot of gymnastics and jujitsu verbally to try and convince people that she's trying to address the fentanyl problem while voting to leave the border wide open so I think these debates are a great opportunity just for us to show how the Democrats have failed and how we have a much better and brighter vision for the future with policies that aren't hypothetical anymore.
We can easily reflect back on the Trump era, and most people know, regardless of how they feel about Trump or any of the politics, their lives were much better just a couple years ago.
peter navarro
I'm sure, Joe, that you're much better at bringing the receipts.
This is kind of what has been the signature of the war room.
You do have a command of these issues over these years.
Has she tried to get out of any of the debates?
I'm kind of surprised she'll go head-to-head with you.
joe kent
Yeah, initially, we challenged her to quite a few different debates.
And to the credit of the media, they've been pretty aggressive about requesting debates.
So honestly, I don't think she could have weaseled her way out of them.
I mean, she does not enjoy the debates.
I can just tell that by being next to her.
I like debates.
I feel like debates are probably one of the more proactive things you can do as a candidate.
So I like them.
I welcome the opportunity just to contrast her vision for the future and my vision for the future.
And just especially watch her attempt to defend what her voting record is.
And because I'm being outspent by so much, this actually is a great opportunity for me to highlight her voting record.
peter navarro
I mean, it's the best free media you can get.
So let's give you a little free media here.
Denver, if you can play that clip we have here, and then I'll let Joe explain what we got here.
unidentified
Raising a family here hasn't gotten any easier.
Our neighborhoods are less safe.
Gas is more expensive than ever.
And grocery costs just keep going up.
Southwest Washington needs help.
And I know someone who always fought for us.
My husband, Joe Kent.
joe kent
Unlike Democrat Marie Perez, I'll stand up for all of our families by fighting to secure the border and ending the out-of-control inflation.
I'm Joe Kent, and I approve this message.
peter navarro
It's a hardscrabble district you're in, Joe.
You're not in Seattle anymore.
Tell us a little bit about that ad and what the demographics are of your district, friend.
joe kent
Yeah, so I live out in a pretty rural community.
Our biggest city is just kind of the sister city to Portland, Oregon, but it's a much more rational version of Portland.
It's like what Portland was 20, 30 years ago.
But the rest of the district, and it's a huge district, is very rural.
It's timber country. It's an area that's been affected heavily by government overregulation of the timber industry and the offshoring of our mills.
So it is very much a blue-collar district.
It is hardscrabble.
And so what I really wanted to highlight With that ad, not only highlight my family, because I'm really proud of my family, and I think that's something that a lot of people can relate to, but just the daily reality that families are living with at the gas pump, at the grocery store, and just the out-of-control crime as well.
Those are things, I think, that working families throughout the district, it really resonates with them, because you feel this inflation.
You feel these policies when you go to fill up a tank of gas, when you go to try to feed your family.
And so I think just highlighting how much Democrat policies have hurt our families and how it's going to be relatively simple for us to put our country back on track, that's what we're attempting to do with that ad.
peter navarro
And in terms of the budget now, have you got enough to get you to the election day?
A lot of times campaigns run out of money.
Have you made your buys?
Are you all set? And when you finish answering that, I need you to give us your coordinates so we can help maybe send a few bucks your way.
joe kent
We definitely need help. I mean, the Democrats are already outspending us by about five to one.
We anticipate the intel we have says the Democrats are gonna dump millions more in between now and, you know, when this thing's over here in 21 days.
So they're ready to dump even more money into the district because all the polling has us tied up in a dead heat.
So we obviously need help.
We have enough money to get through on a skeleton crew, but if we want to put more ads up to really highlight her record, we should have another ad up today highlighting how she voted to put men into our daughter's dressing room to compete against them on the athletics field.
But if we want to be able to get those messages out more in a more meaningful way, we really need everyone's help.
So No donation is too small.
JoeKentForCongress.com is the touchpoint where you can make a donation and help us fight back and expose what her record is and how MAGA is going to fix it here in 21 days.
peter navarro
Let's play that clip real quick.
Let's see. We got another clip here, Joe.
Let's see how my crack team in Denver does.
unidentified
Women and girls are under assault.
Woke policies are letting biological men claiming to be women invade our sports, our bathrooms, and our locker rooms.
Here in Washington state, men convicted of sexual assault are even given access to women's prisons.
And Marie Perez voted to give men the right to compete in our sports, enter our bathrooms, ogle us in our locker rooms, and even steal our athletic scholarships.
Marie Perez won't protect women because she's just too weird for Washington.
peter navarro
That's too weird for Washington.
They tried to use that word on us.
It didn't work out so well.
joe kent
Backstory on that one. The backstory on this is my opponent speaks like a moderate, but she votes like a radical.
Here in Washington State, we've got a lot of crazy things that are going on with our schools.
Basically, the education system gets between a parent and their child that basically says a kid over the age of 13 can decide to have health procedures done, whether that's a sex change surgery, a vaccine, or an abortion.
And they can get that all done behind the backs of their parents.
And what Republicans...
13, yeah. They call it a mature minor.
Completely made up terminology.
These kids can make a decision that's irreversible.
Yeah, you can't make it up. They're getting sex change surgeries, puberty blockers, these types of things.
It's very real here in Washington State.
House Republicans at the federal level Attempted to throw us a lifeline and say that, hey, biological men are not allowed to enter the spaces of women.
So bathrooms, locker rooms, dressing rooms, and biological men can't compete against women on the athletics field.
My opponent and every single Democrat voted against that.
They voted to let men into our daughter's dressing rooms, locker rooms, compete against them on the athletics field.
They voted to let men into battered women's shelters.
They claim to be a woman. So it is absolutely crazy.
I mean, these are things that we wouldn't even have to talk about 10, 15 years ago, but this is the beating heart of the Democrat Party, and they have the audacity to call us weird.
peter navarro
One more time, 20 seconds till out.
What's your website again?
Let's get some money into Joe.
joe kent
Absolutely. JoeKentForCongress.com.
Anything the posse can give, greatly appreciated.
It's going to help us fight back against the 5 to 1 spending we're feeling.
So JoeKentForCongress.com.
unidentified
Thanks, Peter. Joe, you are worried, brother.
peter navarro
You keep doing what you're doing, brother.
We're behind you all the way.
unidentified
Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon.
peter navarro
Tomorrow for Bannon.
Steve will be with us soon.
The big countdown now, about 11 days.
It's going to be great to have him back right for the final, final stretch.
The Democrats took him off the table for the four most crucial months of the most important election in modern history.
No conspiracies, but there are no coincidences.
We will not forget what they did to Steve.
Joe Kent, we just had him on the last segment.
This guy's real special to me.
If you know his background as a combat veteran, crossed two theaters with multiple deployments.
His wife, Also a combat veteran.
She was killed in action.
If you read the book about her, she was absolutely brilliant.
And she found herself in harm's way because of her unique skill set.
Man's raising a family.
In Trump country, let's face it, the state of Washington isn't known to be Trump country, but you get out of places like Seattle, Seattle, Seattle, into the rural areas, and this is where Trump country really is.
We need to support Joe.
I would ask House Speaker Mike Johnson and the House Republicans to get more behind Joe Kent.
That seat is there for the taking if you spend the right amount of money going into the election day.
Do not forget Joe Kent.
It would be tragic if we won the White House, won the Senate, which we look like we may be able to well do.
And then somehow turn that house back over to these jackals.
Those are the jackals that put me in prison.
House Democrats are jackals.
They're scum. You put them in power.
Trump's in the White House.
They'll do what they did before.
It'll be one impeachment after another for bulls**t.
Joe Kent could be the deciding vote.
On whether or not we have a majority.
Mike Johnson, you've got to do better than you're doing.
I know you're helping. I know you're going there.
But that dude needs some money.
You can't let a seat like that get outspent 5-1 when it's there for the taking.
Use your brains, dudes.
Come on. All right.
Speaking of using your brains, that's what Mike Lindell always does.
Brother Mike... We love Mike.
He never spends too much money on good backgrounds or studios.
He always comes to us like he's in the witness protection program.
But bring us up to date on what you got for the posse.
You're in a little early. We usually like to go to lunch on your wisdom, but what you got?
mike lindell
Well, I wanted to tell everybody what I've been working on right now.
I've been speaking in churches.
I've been reaching out to the church to get everybody involved in this election.
And what you can all do, this is very important.
Go to any of the social media platforms, X, True Social, Break Social, Getter, Gab, all of them.
I've been putting up posts.
These are the clips that we made when I was at the DNC of why Democrats now are switching to our great real president, Donald Trump.
It's very important that you share, share, share.
We're in this final push, and I'm gonna have at least a couple every day.
These are good ammunition basically to use to anybody you know saying, hey, check this out, check this out.
And this will be a very good marketing way to get these independents.
And even a lot of Democrats that are flipping, they hear it from their own people going, hey, this is nonsensical things going on.
In our country, like you brought up the last hour, these things that are going on out there.
Just 10, 15 years ago, you couldn't even fathom it.
And I wanna bring up another thing, too, that put pressure in people's minds.
This involves my bill.
Just this last week, we hired over 50 new employees.
Now, these are a time where the economy is in shambles because of what they've done to our country.
If you go back to December of 2019, when our great real president, Donald Trump, he had built an economy.
That was the highest consumer confidence in history.
Well, those days are coming, everybody.
We've gotta get everybody to refresh people's minds of that, too.
And I wanna get up the special before I do have to go.
This has been the USA made products that MyPillow makes.
The MyPillow, the classic MyPillow.
We put this on sale for wholesale prices.
When the box stores shut us down, We just said, you know what?
Let's give the country the wholesale prices.
We did this with the war room there.
1988 for the kings, 1888 for the queens.
Remember, these pillows work.
That's why we sold 84 million MyPillows now.
They not only give you the best sleep ever because you can't adjust them to your own individual needs, but now you have the best prices in history.
So take advantage of this, go to the website, go down.
We miss Steve, see his picture, click on it and support this show.
So you're supporting the War Room, you're supporting my employees and you're supporting yourself.
With the best specials in history, there's free shipping options available still for the War Room Posse.
Call 800-873-1062.
I'm just emailing Steve about two, three days ago.
We can't wait to get him out, but I told him we broke records.
I told him when he went in that the War Room Posse is behind him and you guys have been.
You've been behind me in the USA. And now we just gotta get this all to the finish line, everybody.
And I'm so proud of everyone, the War Room Posse.
And Peter, you've done such a great job.
We're the country so proud of you.
And I'm gonna get going.
I've gotta get to another church today, tonight, everybody.
We gotta get it out. When you go to your church, spread the word, spread the word.
Vote, vote, vote.
Fight, fight, fight.
peter navarro
Amen, brother. You're our patriot.
You know that. We need you, brother.
Get out there. Get it done.
Preach, brother. Preach. God bless you.
Yeah, that's great, Mike Lindell.
It's amazing what the Democrats are doing to all of the greats Hit piece on Kash Patel in the New York Times.
You got Mike Lindell fighting fires on every front.
The big box retailers after him.
Just trying to squeeze him.
Bannon's in prison.
I just got out of prison.
Rudy. Bankrupt.
John Clark.
No, Jeff Clark and John Eastman.
Losing their bar cards in way of livelihood.
Are we that dangerous, Dems?
Why are you afraid of us?
Is it because we speak the truth?
We call you on your woke crap?
This election is indeed the most important of our lifetime.
I've been around now 75 years.
I've seen...
I guess I first started paying attention when JFK got in.
I was a young kid.
He captured everybody's imagination.
I've seen them all.
And... These are the times that try men's souls, as the saying goes.
If we do not get the vote out...
We will lose this election.
They know how to stuff the ballot box, folks.
Do you understand that?
They know how to stuff the ballot box.
They do it very well.
A lot of what they stuff it with are simply votes they recruit that are legal.
I guess that there's going to be a lot of chicanery As well, in the Detroits of this world, where the Atlantis of this world, where they're going to try to put two thumbs and a foot on the scale.
Please, posse, vote as soon as you're allowed to in your state.
Take 10 people to the polls with you so we get this done.
Okay? All right, when we come back, we're going to be treated to one of the biggest rants Morning Joe ever gave, and then I'm going to rant on that a little bit.
dave brat
We'll be right back. There's a lot at stake in this upcoming election, but regardless of who is sitting in the White House, the fuse on the economy has already been lit.
Even four years of a conservative presidency will not be enough to turn the tide on our $35 trillion national debt.
And if the left wins, it's like throwing gas on a dumpster fire.
The election is in the hands of the American people.

And Jim Rickards, editor of Strategic Intelligence, the man who predicted the 2008 financial crisis, Trump's victory in 2016, and the COVID disaster is sounding the alarm.
Rickards has just dropped a bombshell that could change everything you think you know about the 2024 election.
He's uncovered what he calls the Democrats' secret plan to keep Trump out of the White House, even if he wins.
This isn't some far-off theory.
He's warning that this meltdown could lead to a 50% market crash, the total collapse of the US dollar, and violent riots in our streets.
The stakes are higher than ever, folks, and if you're not prepared, you could lose everything.
But Jim Rickards isn't just predicting disaster.
He's laying out five critical steps you need to take now to protect yourself, your family, and your financial future.
This isn't fear-mongering.
It's coming straight from a man who's been at the highest levels of intelligence, finance, and national security.

Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon.
peter navarro
Hey, Navarro in for Bannon.
You're about to be feeded and treated to one of the best mashups Cameron, our producer, has ever put together.
And it's an important cold open, slightly delayed, because it marks the turning point in...
The left-left media in terms of any faith they may have had in the Kamala Harris campaign.
You're going to see Morning Joe, Charlie Sykes, Liz Cheney, Justin Lemire.
Every one of these people are going to get on their soapbox and And their heads are going to explode right in front of you as they desperately and urgently repeat the same kind of crap,
albeit in a higher octave and at a higher decibel rate than they've been doing for the last eight years as they exhibit their Trump derangement syndrome.
And the thing that's really important is When you see Morning Joe in particular, it must gall Morning Joe and his sidekick Mika, or is it vice versa, that the two of them were actually key in bringing Donald Trump back.
His victory in 2016, early on, I don't know if you remember, I certainly do, in the 2016 campaign when Trump was first getting out there He'd go frequently on, it was kind of a daily ritual like coffee,
go on, talk with Morning Joe and Mika, and they would treat him quite nicely, and it allowed him basically to elevate a profile that was already off the charts, but also speak in a way rationally to at least some of the rational members of the MS, DNC audience.
Marnie, Joe and me, it must gall you that you helped put Donald Trump in office.
Because how else do you explain the vitriol which we're about to see?
And again, what this is going to mark is the turning point is they got nothing left.
They're going to try to dig up every single old trope that is already embedded in any kind of opinion polling.
Okay? I hate to break it to you, folks, but nothing you can say now.
Nothing. Okay?
You can say on MSNBC or CNN is going to move Trump voters away from Trump.
Nothing you can say on MSNBC, CNN is going to stop Kamala Harris from circling around the drain because you know you got nothing to work with there.
This will be a tight race.
But you folks...
Other than what we're about to show you, aren't going to have much to say about it.
So, let's play this cold open.
I'll take some notes, and you're going to laugh your ass off, Posse.
These are people in desperation.
When you see this kind of desperation, you know you're making a difference.
All right? Let's go, Denver.
unidentified
You know, you can say, some people say, well, you're anti-Trump Trotskyite, you know, but I haven't moved.
They have. No.
And so, and I don't want to point, I don't want to point a finger.
I don't want people walking into the street and gnashing their teeth and having to wear sackcloth and ashes.
Leave all that aside, right?
We're in the conversion business.
Just vote for Harris.
And what I would argue is, don't tell anybody if you don't want to, right?
I mean, if you go in there and you're a Republican, and I know it's hard.
It's, you know, this is part of people's identity.
And when they really look at those names, they think, ah, you know, Democrat, ah, you know, taxes, ah.
How about thinking, ah, Constitution, when you look at Trump?
And so...
I just think that there is a sane vote here, and then there is a risky vote.
And I just don't see what's the upside here of voting for Trump if you are, in fact, a center-right person or centrist, period.
And it's a tiny number of folks who are going to make this decision.
And therefore, we are in a moment I'd argue, which is as important a test of citizenship as at any moment I can think of in American history.
joe scarborough
After Donald Trump first got elected, I would walk into a coffee shop every day, and everybody, you know, oh, there he goes, used to be a Republican.
Every day, that smile, I say, good to see you guys too, and go on every day.
Finally, after about three weeks, they just stop, they go, you guys do understand.
that we have voted for the same presidential candidate likely our entire life except one time and chances are good after Donald Trump leaves the scene we'll be voting for the same presidential candidates again for the rest of our lives but if you're going to pick one election To go against your habits,
to go against your pre-existing prejudices, to go against what you've done out of habit, this might be the one election to do it.
And Charlie, you've made that decision, haven't you?

Yeah, and this is the pitch.
I mean, I understand how it's hard for, you know, Republican voters to cross over.
I understand that there's this partisan muscle memory and that they disagree on a variety of issues.
But the point, I think, that has to be made over and over again is that this is not a normal election.
This is not Dukakis versus Bush.
That this is not Republican versus Democrat.
This is not left versus right.
We are talking about the possibility of the return to power of a convicted felon, rapey, seditionist who threatens to undo the constitutional order.
And there's nothing conservative about that.
Do you have faith that this election will be free and fair and that there will be a peaceful transfer of power?
I do not have faith that Mike Johnson will fulfill his constitutional obligations.
And if you just look at what he did in 2020, he knew, and he knew with specificity, that the claims of fraud that Donald Trump was making and that he was repeating, he knew those to be false.
We had very clear and specific conversations about that.
He knew that courts had specifically found that those claims were false.
He knew they weren't true. He also knew that what he was urging Congress do in terms of throwing out the votes of millions of Americans, he knew with specificity that that was unconstitutional.
He was told that Not only in discussions with me, but also by the House Republican Council.
He signed his name to a brief filed with the United States Supreme Court that made those claims he knew to be false.
So he has a record repeatedly of doing things that he knows to be wrong, that he knows to be unconstitutional, in order to placate Donald Trump.
And frankly, you saw that sycophancy just now on display.
So I think that it's very concerning.
I do think that Donald Trump has consistently said again and again and again in the last few months that this election is going to be rigged and that if he loses, that's why.
So I think it's very important that the Republicans not be in the majority in the House come January 2025.
Who kowtows to dictators, who wants to shred the Constitution.
This is one of those moments where you say, okay, I understand that you are not changing your conservative or centrist values.
I understand that you disagree with Kamala Harris on a lot of different things.
But there's a moment where you have to put the country over party.
And I think that one of the closing arguments, one of the most powerful closing arguments that Kamala Harris has is to say, look at the people who have been the Republican Party, who have been conservative leaders, whether it's Mike Pence or whether it's Dick Cheney or whether it's, You know, Liz Cheney herself, former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, all of these people who are looking at the Republican Party under Donald Trump and saying this is not who we
are, as well as all of the people who worked with Donald Trump, who were in his cabinet, who were in his White House, who are saying we saw him up close.
The man is not fit for another term in office.
So I think that the task is to convince Republicans who go, well, I disagree with him on this.
I disagree with her on abortion.
I disagree with her on immigration. I disagree with her on transgender issues.
I disagree with her on tax policy.
But that is ultimately not what this election is about.
And it's not just the risk of Donald Trump.
I also think it's the question of, do you really want to put America through this?
Do you really want four more years of this?
Do you really want someone back in power who has made it absolutely clear that he is off Off the charts of the normal American political difference.

Donald Trump inspired a riot at the Capitol.
Donald Trump kowtowed to Vladimir Putin.
Donald Trump was found liable for sexual assault, which a judge later likened to the everyday definition of rape.
And now he's out there day after day lying about migrants in the most racist and vile ways.

The primal scream of the left.
Here's the problem that Kamala Harris has.
Here's the problem Morning Joe has.
All those clowns have.
It's like all this bad stuff they say about Orange Man bad over here.
Cognitive dissonance.
It doesn't square with the world in which Donald Trump He was the first president in decades where no war was started on his watch.
We were safe from Putin, Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un, and the mullahs of Iran.
How'd that happen if he kowtowed to dictators?
We had economic security, a strong economy, real wages for workers.

And the Biden-Harris Bidenomics regime, they plummeted.
How does that happen, lefties?
Morning Joe, how do you explain?
How do you explain that?
And then what about all this woke stuff, Charlie Sykes?
You think moderate Republicans are going to vote for transgender men in women's bathrooms and women's sports?
Out of your friggin' mind, 13-year-olds making choices about whether to cut their nuts off?
Ain't gonna happen.
I'll be right back for the grand finale.

We've got a big one today.
We're talking Bureau of Prisons, the First Step Act.
And some pretty serious accusations being thrown around.
A lot of you requested this deep dive based on a piece by Peter Navarro, former White House official, and someone who's actually been on the inside.
Yeah, and that's key here.
This isn't just some theoretical debate for him.
His experience gives him a whole different perspective on, well, on the problems and potentially problems.
Right. For sure.
Yeah, he doesn't hold back either.
He actually calls the BOP director, get this, the biggest criminal out there, says it's all because of this financial waste he's alleging.
And then it makes you wonder, if these issues aren't addressed, could they actually sway something as big as a presidential election?
Whoa, he's connecting this to the election now.
That's a whole other conversation.
How does he make that link?
He's suggesting that families who are directly affected by these delays, families who feel like the First Step Act has been sidelined, they might be more likely to vote for whoever they see as a champion of that bill, someone like Trump, and against those they see as responsible for the lack of action.
So this could become a voting issue, especially for families who feel like the system's failed them.
It's definitely a possibility.
I mean, think about it. We've seen how even smaller niche issues, things that don't always make the headlines, they can really energize certain voters, especially when they feel like their concerns aren't being heard.
peter navarro
Yes, you have now heard the future, and it's friggin' scary.
That Was not people, but robots.
Basically simulated AI voices.
And it's the deep dive crew, an AI product, software product, where you take something like an op-ed article or report that I've written,
And you load it up onto the site, and instead of it coming out maybe in your cloned voice, so it sounds like you, what they do is they run it through the AI mill and come up with what,
I gotta admit, is a very thoughtful and engaging rendition of the script that That I sent to it.
unidentified
I mean, think about that. Think about that.
peter navarro
And I'm going to have Joe Allen on Wednesday think about kind of what that means for media, for podcasting, for how you absorb information in the thing.
And here's the big cautionary flag.
The thing's woke.
I mean, it does a...
A very good job. Not a pretty good job.
It does a very good job of capturing the essential elements of the script I put into it.
But somehow it can't help itself in subtle ways along the way and particularly at the end in exhibiting its wokeness.
You have to listen to the whole thing.
I'm going to put it up on my podcast today.
You can see up on the screen, Dan, if you want to put that up.
It's Peter Navarro's Taking Back Trump's America podcast today.
On the Apple podcast.
It's well worth listening to it.
There's another one up there where they took my J.D. Vance article in the Washington Times and ran it through the deep dive homogenization thing.
But, you know, you can imagine a world, I mean, where...
I mean, if you go into a TV studio now...
A lot of these that aren't unionized anymore have remote cameras.
It's like you go in and it's like nothing but remote cameras.
You don't see camera operators.
These are remote cameras.
In a few years, I don't know how long it'll take, but I'm sure there will be virtual images of The Neil Cavudos of this world, you know, they'll just feed in kind of a little bile into the bot, right?
Give it a little Cavudo bile and give him its voice and this, that, and the other thing, and then he'll get on there and he'll trash Trump on something new or some other MAGA person, whatever.
That's kind of an interesting future I want to talk with Joe Allen about.
But I also wanted to play that Clip, because I do want to go out in this show for the last couple of minutes here talking about how this failed to implement the First Step Act by Director of the Bureau of Prisons, Colette Peters, And Joe Biden and Kamala Harris at the White House.
The failure really could have a material positive effect in the battleground states for Trump.
I mean, when I was in prison, I never thought I'd be saying that, when I was in prison for defending the Constitution, I would have many a talk with many an inmate about how If the first step back were truly enforced, they wouldn't be tugging them because they would have been long gone.
And there's a lot of anger among inmates, and they don't vote.
But their families do.
And these are big families in a lot of cases.
And there's hundreds of thousands of these family members.
Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Michigan.
Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, who will be going to the polls.
If you listen to me and you weren't planning on it, you damn well should.
Because Donald Trump's smart on crime approach will actually save money and human misery and actually reduce the crime rate.
So that's what this is all about.
When I talk about prison reform, nobody's tougher on crime than Donald Trump or me.
Lock the bastards up if they deserve it.
But when you got first-time offenders in for the rest of much of their lives, when they should be out, that's just stupid on crime.
