| This is what you're fighting for. | ||
| I mean, every day you're out there. | ||
| What they're doing is blowing people off. | ||
| If you continue to look the other way and shut up, then the oppressors, the authoritarians get total control and total power. | ||
| Because this is just like in Arizona. | ||
| This is just like in Georgia. It's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and misrepresentations. | ||

This is why this audience is going to have to get engaged. | |
| As we've told you, this is the fight. | ||

|
All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth. | |
| War Room. Battleground. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Dave Bratt, the war room, sitting in with the great Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Out of respect for Steve, a couple weeks and counting, folks. | ||
| Freedom is coming, and Steve Bannon is on the return. | ||
| And so we open the show in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. | ||
| Amen. We have a great show for you today. | ||
| We're going to connect the dots. | ||
| Religion, race, the Senate majority up for grabs, wars around the world, Business economics, tens of billions of dollars in corruption in Ukraine. | ||
| Stay tuned for a great show. | ||
| We're starting off with Lance Wall now. | ||
| He is coming on. | ||
| He's got a huge online communications with the Protestant evangelical community. | ||
| He just had a huge event on the mall. | ||
| And so Lance, why don't you introduce the groups you represent and what your call out these days is. | ||
| All political views are my own, but Lance, tee it up for us. | ||
| What's at stake and what's the call to duty? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| Well, you know, I was up there in the mall with a group and it was a group of pastors. | ||
| I'm not alone. Thank God. | ||
| We've got a large armada of us. | ||
| We have a quarter of a million. | ||
| We believe that we're there. | ||
| Plus, we have millions online. | ||
| And I'll tell you, Dave, they were even flying in from other countries. | ||
| They're so concerned about the significance of the American election. | ||
| It was Yom Kippur. So I'm part Ashkenazi Jew. | ||
| I'm a born-again Christian. | ||
| I'm a great eclectic mixture of Judeo-Christian history here. | ||
| But we were crying out to God on Yom Kippur. | ||
| And what it tells me is that there is a movement of awakening that's happening. | ||
| And at the same time, Dave, there's this shocking data coming out from George Barna, who's saying that there will be some 31 million evangelicals who are going to be sitting in their churches, not voting. | ||
| And the primary reason they're not voting is their pastors are eschewing the political issues in order to avoid And so this is the exact opposite of what a pastor ought to be doing right now. | ||
| And so I get hint, you know, I had JD Vance join me for a town hall two weeks ago in Pittsburgh. | ||
| You would have thought I had invited the Antichrist to America. | ||
| The media freaked out. | ||
| They said, oh no, the radical, crazy Christian extremists are now officially linking up with the Trump administration. | ||
| Listen, man, Trump wouldn't be in office if it wasn't for the Christians. | ||
| Like, we're 40% of the turnout for the Republican Party, even though they don't want to admit it. | ||
| But we show up anyway. | ||
| But they had a meltdown. | ||
| The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal. | ||
| And they use the same language all the time, David. | ||
| We have to think about this. | ||
| They are scared of what Christianity can do. | ||
| That's why it's tragic that we have such a poor turnout. | ||
| Barna says, if pastors would just do one thing, it's too late to educate them too much. | ||
| Just encourage them to vote. | ||
| If they did that, we'd have five million votes that would show up. | ||
| That's just encouraging. How many organizations are there? | ||
| Myfaithvotes.org. | ||
| I threw up a QR code in Washington at our prayer meeting. | ||
| 400 young people there weren't registered to vote. | ||
| They'll come out and blow a shofar. | ||
| They'll pray. They'll faint. | ||
| The heat was hitting them. | ||
| They're dropping like flies. | ||
| But they didn't vote. | ||
| Why? Because, and you know this, I've heard you talk with Barton and Federer, there's a schizophrenia. | ||
| We separate spirituality from civic engagement. | ||
| I mean, what the heck is going on? | ||
| So my argument is, no, we're not some kind of bizarre Pentecostal fringe back crazy group. | ||
| We're theologically grounded. | ||
| We're culturally more. | ||
| And if you go to the Bible, you'll see in Daniel, for instance, the Old Testament, not even the New Testament. | ||
| Daniel, in chapter 10, during the third year of Cyrus, the king of Persia, who took over Babylon, he went into 21 days of fasting and prayer because he was trying to resolve the political stagnation of Israel being in captivity, and they needed to come out of captivity and go rebuild their temple. | ||
| Cyrus would empower them to do it. | ||
| Daniel was praying in the cabinet In chapter 11, an angel breaks through and speaks to Daniel. | ||
| And says, I am Gabriel. | ||
| Do you know who I am? I have been at war with principalities and powers over political structures in Persia. | ||
| I fought with the Prince of Persia. | ||
| I'm here to tell you something. | ||
| I stood with Cyrus. | ||
| And here's an interesting verse. | ||
| I stood with Cyrus, Darius the Mede, and I took my stand and supported him in the very first year of his administration. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, if an archangel is supporting a heathen in the first year of his administration because of his role for the church or for Israel in the Old Testament, how much more can we stand with Donald Trump? | ||
| I hear nutty Christians say, well, did you hear what Melania said? | ||
| We're losing a lot of support for that. | ||
| If you are that shallow that you would vote for a politician, Or not vote for a politician because of what their wife says. | ||
| Let me ask you this. Would you vote for somebody who is pro-choice as a politician because their wife is pro-life? | ||
| Only Christians think in terms of disqualifying themselves from a process because they don't like the politics of a spouse. | ||
| So I get heated up over this. | ||
| The good news is Christians, Catholics are showing up. | ||
| Evangelicals, pay attention. | ||
| It's the Catholics that are in the Midwest, the dominant voting bloc that can give us oxygen to make up for our lethargy, is going to be the Catholic vote. | ||
| And it looks like it's going to be moving so significantly towards Trump. | ||
| That it might be a one- or two-point shift in some of these states purely from the Catholic turnout because they are voting their values. | ||
| Anyway, that's my position on this, Dave. | ||
| Yeah, well, that's well said, and I like the moored in history part. | ||
| A lot of Christians are going Gnostic these days, are going full-on Greek like they're out of Plato's Republic or whatever. | ||
| What do you say to the young Christians who say, You know, Jesus wasn't in politics, and, you know, he's the son of God, and I follow—I'm a Jesus follower, which is all great, but therefore, I'm not going to do politics. | ||
| I'm not going to get involved in this sinful realm. | ||
| I'm going to stay pure. | ||
| I'm going to stay holy, like Jesus called us, stay holy. | ||
| What's the Bible, and what's the word on that one? | ||
|
unidentified
|
And invariably, it's really bad exegesis, and it's really bad theology, too. | |
| It's kind of like, unfortunately, it's the peaceful hippie movement era coming to an end in America because we've lived in such an isolated, insulated bubble of prosperity and freedom. | ||
| That we don't understand the clawing death struggle of Christianity in the majority of the nations of the earth. | ||
| And so we can afford to be light and philosophical because our livelihood and our lives don't depend upon how we engage the government and the culture. | ||
| But let me just say this. | ||
| Jesus said, the most miscuted abuse quote that people give me, Jesus said, my kingdom is not of this world. | ||
| My kingdom is not of this world. | ||
| It's totally misquoted. | ||
| Jesus was saying the origin of his kingdom isn't earthly. | ||
| He doesn't derive his power from Caesar or Parliament. | ||
| He derives it from the Father. | ||
| Almighty God is the one that put him in office. | ||
| And when he returns, he is going to be a global dominionist. | ||
| He's not coming back in Thessalonians in order to discuss the misunderstanding regarding his political views. | ||
| He's coming to take over. | ||
| He is going to engage. | ||
| Experimental forces that are hostile and militant against him. | ||
| Bam! And that's the end-time scenario almost all evangelicals agree on. | ||
| The second coming is Jesus coming back to establish dominion over the earth. | ||
| I don't know what these soft-hearted Christians and Gnostic Christians are going to do when they meet Jesus in flaming fire, coming back to exact judgment upon those who rejected and resisted his truth, because that's the last chapter in the Bible. | ||
| Jesus was crucified because he was a political threat. | ||
| We had no king but Caesar was the word that got into Pilate's ears that made him want to wash his hands and get rid of this situation. | ||
| Jesus was a political threat because he was overturning Satan's control over the kingdoms of this world. | ||
| Yeah, Lance, last big question I've had, you know, for Barton and the good guys, Federer, etc. | ||
| You know, they both noted our founders, right? | ||
| The founders of the country, the most cited text used to build our constitutional republic came out of the book of Deuteronomy. | ||
| And so that's kind of well known. | ||
| But even prior to that, right, 1640, Harvard's motto, and they were a seminary training in ministers, was truth for Christ and church. | ||
| So there was no wall of separation, right? | ||
| So the left and even the evangelicals and people who want to be polite at the wine and cheese cocktail parties up in D.C. and across the country, right? | ||
| In the boardrooms, the corporate board. | ||
| Hey, the last thing we need to do is talk about God here. | ||
| No politics and no religion. | ||
| We can't have any of that. | ||
| That's getting down to the guts of things, what we actually believe about the world we live in. | ||
| And so, what's your comment to this wall of separation, right, Jefferson? | ||
| Jefferson, on the wall, he said, yeah, there's a wall. | ||
| It goes one way. | ||
| We're supposed to practice our religion, and the government is supposed to be limited. | ||
| That's the only wall. | ||
| We were running the entire country, right? | ||
| The Judeo-Christian piece, it was by state. | ||
| It worked out great. | ||
| It gave us the greatest country in the world. | ||
| All right, I think I see you smiling, so you're ready to roll. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Go ahead, Lance. That's good. I mean, I can't. | |
| This is what I do, and I listen to you anyway, and I'm not on the show with you. | ||
| I'm talking to you. | ||
| I'm yelling at you. But you know, it's a psyops. | ||
| It's the worst. We need a corporate deliverance of the body of Christ. | ||
| I mean, forget about exorcisms out there. | ||
| We need it right here. Because... | ||
| I run into more Christians that say, separation of church and state, you shouldn't even be involved in these political matters. | ||
| I'm thinking, who brainwashed you? | ||
| That separation quote from the Danbury Baptist was an assurance to religious people that the government knows its place and won't overreach. | ||
| Now, that's on the table. | ||
| You got John Kerry and Kamala Harris, and they're saying people like Elon Musk have a responsibility, and they have to be held accountable for what they say. | ||
| Oh, I never heard that about the Russian collusion hoax. | ||
| I never heard that about the lies from the 50 Intelligence Bureau chiefs that signed off on Hunter's laptop. | ||
| Why are they held to the standard of misinformation? | ||
| Why is it the political opposition of the Democrats? | ||
| I'll tell you why. Because it's the church, it's the founders, and it's religion that ultimately holds in place this delicate tension that keeps the wall propped up. | ||
| So the government doesn't assimilate us like the Borg. | ||
| I teach a thing called Seven Mountains and it's a theory that Christianity impacts culture when it goes into education and media and government and entertainment and business and the family and the church is strong. | ||
| Those seven domains will shape the prosperity of a nation. | ||
| What the church has done in its artificial sense of disengagement Has surrendered academia to the left, surrendered journalism to the left, and we're in danger now of surrendering the corporate oligarchs and put them in with the politicians. | ||
| But David, we're not going to let it happen because there is an awakening happening. | ||
| These ideas may have sounded crazy five years ago. | ||
| Now our movement is mainstream. | ||
| Lance, in closing, the final call here to Christians and our Jewish friends as well, and the Muslims who believe in human rights and want to be protected on First Amendment grounds, the party platforms are very informative. | ||
| All political views are my own, but Harris has also made very... | ||
| Start comments about the freedom of speech and where she thinks that ends. | ||
| And in my understanding, there is no end to free speech. | ||
| It is a God-given right, and it reveals the Word, right? | ||
| Jesus is the Word, and when you start limiting the Word, boy, you get my hair goes up on the back of my neck. | ||
| And so the party platforms are informative. | ||
| The Republicans are nothing of what they should be either, right, if you're calling balls and strikes. | ||
| But at least they have some God language and some human rights language. | ||
| The leftists, the liberals, I used to like. | ||
| RFK Jr., I love him. | ||
| The Kennedys. There was some respect for the faith and the church and human rights. | ||
| They fought on the underdog side. | ||
| They were against war. | ||
| They were against the CIA. Now it's all flip-flopped. | ||
| And so the party platform on the left, I don't think has any God talk left in it. | ||
| They've gone neo-Marxist on us. | ||
| Marx does not believe in any transcendental realm, right? | ||
| There is no God realm. | ||
| There's no realm of human rights that exists. | ||
| And people do not have any awareness of this, of what's really at stake in this election. | ||
| So in concluding, how do people follow you, reach you, and give the final call, brother? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Go ahead. And what you're saying, Dave, is exactly right. | |
| What the left wants to do is, of course, they want to caricature people like me and the evangelicals and the Christians as crazy fringe. | ||
| Always fringe. They love the word fringe. | ||
| But the reality is they want to make it about Trump versus Kamala because it's the ultimate weapon they've got is to continue to freeze frame a stigmatizing branding on Trump that all media is already in agreement on. | ||
| But the truth is, you don't focus on the person at the top of a ticket. | ||
| You focus on the platform and the policy. | ||
| A Christian doesn't vote personality. | ||
| A Christian votes principles and values. | ||
| So you look for the platform that most resonates your beliefs. | ||
| Forget about the Trump argument or the Harris argument. | ||
| It's distracting. | ||
| It's about what are the platforms and policies. | ||
| And when you come to that, The Democrats, I'm sorry to say, have amalgamated the most bizarre consortium of anti-Christian hostile worldviews. | ||
| And by the way, the speech thing, this whole gender pronoun thing that is enforced in colleges and universities and campuses and in schools is a form of censorship. | ||
| Forcing you to make the new confession to the new God of the new religion. | ||
| And it takes certain courage to be able to stand up against that, David. | ||
| MyFaithVotes.org. I've got 20 Christian organizations I work with, trying to promote them. | ||
| And you can go to LanceWallNow.com, W-A-L-L-N-A-U.com, forward slash podcast. | ||
| I'm on this channel, Real America's Voice, and I do a daily summary of the election, including the cross tabs on how we're doing. | ||
| And I'm saying keep your pedal to the metal, because this is coming down to a photo finish, and it's a battle of inches. | ||
| You got it. Lance Wall now. | ||
| That's some energy, brother. | ||
| Thanks for bringing it to the war room. | ||
| I wish I had my coffee in the war room. | ||
| Here, I'd do a coffee commercial right now and use you as a co-sponsor. | ||
| But thanks for keeping the faith and spreading the faith. | ||
| That's what we're on the planet to do. | ||
| Both the catechisms, by the way. | ||
| The Baltimore Catechism and the Heidelberg Catechism. | ||
| Question number one. What is the chief end of man? | ||
| Why are we here? To glorify God. | ||
| I think that's what you're doing, brother. | ||
| Keep it up. Thank you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you, brother Dave. Look forward to hearing more from you. | |
| All right, always, always. | ||
| All right, Royce White is on deck. | ||
| Royce, why don't I just open up with you, and why don't you just respond to what you just heard, because I'm sure you're ready to roll. | ||
| Well, I mean, Lance Walnut is a legend. | ||
| You know, I got a lot of people here in Minnesota on the campaign trail that have huge respect and admiration for Lance's work, and I do as well. | ||
| Look, I agree completely. | ||
| I mean, and I think it's across the entire spectrum of denominations in the Christian community to think that we don't have some civic duty responsibility. | ||
| You know, the one thing that I go back and reference in the Bible is when Paul told the centurion guard, am I a Roman citizen? | ||
| Do you have the right to bind and beat a Roman citizen who has not yet seen trial? | ||
| I mean, right there, he's placing a huge emphasis on the idea of citizenship and, you know, that That there are expectations that practicing Christians should have, even in their evangelical journeys, of what government should look like and what scope they should hold government to. | ||
| So I think Christians, in fairness, I understand, you know, that the eternal is the most important, obviously, but there has to be some clear line drawn where we as sane, rational, thinking Christians say, if we are impeded on by our government, we have to push back, we have to fight back, we have to take a stand in that. | ||
| And that can only be political. | ||
| You know, that can't be only in the spiritual. | ||
| And actually, the real, in my opinion, the real... | ||
| The justification for Christians being involved in the political process rests solely on the First Amendment danger. | ||
| We have to be able to preach the gospel. | ||
| We were commissioned and mandated to preach the gospel and spread the word. | ||
| So as you said before Lance came on, when people start to infringe on the freedom of speech, we got big problems. | ||
| We as Christians got to draw a line, period. | ||
| Yep. Yep. Hey, as the countdown goes in the last month before the election, race, gender, color, all the usual, you know, variables on the left are being flung high. | ||
| They're losing on the economy. | ||
| They're losing on, are you better off than you were? | ||
| I think 60 to 40, something like that. | ||
| They're losing on the peace and prosperity. | ||
| They're losing on the border invasion. | ||
| So here comes the assault. | ||
| What's your response on that? | ||
| You're running for Senate out there in Minnesota. | ||
| And so what's the play call from you on those issues? | ||
| Well, you know, border, debt, forever wars. | ||
| Keep it clean. Keep it simple. | ||
| Our country is bankrupt. | ||
| We have to close the border. | ||
| We have to end the wars. And that's prudent. | ||
| And even more importantly, it's feasible. | ||
| OK, these are things we could do on day one to start to change the direction that we're headed in. | ||
| Right now, which is bankruptcy, insolvency. | ||
| And even if in the economic sense and in the final analysis they can pacify, let's say, the economic disparity and instability, it will come at the expense of your Right. | ||
| I guarantee you that. | ||
| And so that's even more scary than, you know, a Great Depression is this great, let's say, expression of financial voodoo, you know, where we let the Fed or the International Monetary Fund or whatever other global financial interests pacify what we've created is four quadrillion dollars of global bank debt. | ||
| and you lose your rights because of it. | ||
| Say, oh well, yeah, universal basic income is going to be based on whether or not you'll take an experimental vaccine. | ||
| We can't let that happen. Yeah, let me give you a specific. | ||
| I think you're spot on here. | ||
| And yesterday, I think the Harris campaign came out and said we're going to give a million loans to young black men for entrepreneurial stuff. | ||
| Which sounds right. But in the Constitution, I think we're all equal under the law. | ||
| I mean, you're spot on. | ||
| Somebody's rights are going to take a hit here. | ||
| And the idea that you come out and pick groups that you need as voting blocks and you give them money and it's unconstitutional with discrimination firmly in place there. | ||
| What's your response? Is that going to work? | ||
| I sure hope not. | ||
| I can't speak on behalf of the entire Black community, but it's just like the conversation about reparations. | ||
| Look, the real conversation to have about reparations would be something like we as the American government and as the American people see the value in enduring Black people or any citizens, | ||
| legal citizens, American citizens, To | ||
| the land, to the country. Any black people who would actually take reparations of any sort in the form of liquid capital, they don't understand what inflation is. | ||
| They don't understand that giving them the money will actually further inflate the market and it will make the cash that they give them meaningless and worthless in the end. | ||
| But if there was a situation where Donald Trump, for example, said, like he has, we want to take some of these federal lands and use them for manufacturing, and we would like to incentivize black people who were born in this country or came from slavery to have certain dibs and certain advantages in being a part of this manufacturing rebuild, That is what real leadership would look like, real economic policy that would be fruitful for black people. | ||
| Not we're going to give you $20,000 in an economy where $20,000, especially in a small business sense, is going to blow through. | ||
| They're taking out the entire middle market. | ||
| So $20,000 for small businesses is really a slap in the face more than anything. | ||
| Yep. Here, let me tee you up. | ||
| If you can stay after the break with us, Royce. | ||
| There's a Senate contest going on for leadership, right? | ||
| McConnell's down. So who's going to be the next Senate majority leader? | ||
| The Senate, they're supposed to be the adults in the room, but they've been nowhere to be found on all the issues you just raised. | ||
| $7 trillion budgets, $2 trillion deficits. | ||
| That causes the inflation, right? | ||
| Because the Fed, the Federal Reserve, is so weak, they print the money. | ||
| They cannot say no. They accommodate every step along the way. | ||
| And so I want the war room issues that you just enumerated, economics, inflation linked to deficits, number one. | ||
| Number two, the border invasion. | ||
| And number three, the endless wars, to be up for grabs in that debate for the Senate majority position. | ||
| And the first person that signs their name to those three I'm going to get your reaction to that proposal and whether you think Steve Bannon and the War Room Posse is in favor. | ||
| Right after the break. | ||

All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth. | |
| War Room Battleground with Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| You know, really disturbing things to think that today was the best Donald Trump you're going to see. | ||
| Tomorrow it will be worse. | ||
| The next day it will be worse. | ||
| He's on a decline here, and he's in this sort of loop where he realizes he's losing, so he lashes out more in anger. | ||
| And really, you know, I think that they have almost given up on this race, and it's more about trying to Change how we count votes to be able to control that with these threats of violence. | ||
| And I think it's something that we really need to take seriously. | ||
| I mean, can we really tell ourselves that they're not going to try to go into polling places in Arizona and disrupt them or burn one to the ground and just so you can say they can't certify the election? | ||
| And, you know, one of the great advantages that Donald Trump has always had is the difficulty of imagining Donald Trump. | ||
| You couldn't imagine him being the Republican nominee. | ||
| You couldn't imagine him being Clinton. | ||
| You couldn't imagine him not refusing to leave office after he lost by 7 million votes. | ||
| And I think that we have to embrace this and look at, really, this is a guy who's calling for military tribunals. | ||
| This is very serious stuff, and the great shame is not on Donald Trump, it's on the Republican Party for accepting this. | ||
| And if the Republican Party stood up to Donald Trump and said, no, we're not going to have military tribunals, no, he wouldn't be able to get away with this kind of alacrity that he does now. | ||
| But there is a great conspiracy of silence and cowardness in the Republican Party. | ||
| If he doesn't win, you, the Trump voter, ought to take that as a signal that these people we've described as vermin are making war against Trump, are trying to hurt Trump, and are trying to hurt you. | ||
| This is a recipe for a kind of sort of civil war over this election, when it doesn't look like he's winning it. | ||
| Back in the war room, the great Royce White sitting in. | ||
| Hey, Royce, in closing, we're going to move on. | ||
| I got a couple other superstars in the waiting, but, you know, Senator John Thune, Senator John Cornyn, Senator Rick Scott, they were all very kind to me. | ||
| I was a Republican backbencher. | ||
| They all went out of their way to be nice to me, to welcome me, more than they ever had to. | ||
| They're major leaders. | ||
| But now we're beyond the nice part, right? | ||
| This country is bankrupt. | ||
| We're at war across the world. | ||
| What do you make of the proposition that one of those three, or hopefully all three, come out on the war room issues you laid out, the big three, the economy, the border invasion, and the endless wars, and sign their name? | ||
| And basically, they know they're signing their name against the deep state by signing onto those three. | ||
| What do you make of that proposal? | ||
| You think Stephen K. Bannon and the posse are going to be up for that one? | ||
| Absolutely. Absolutely. They should. | ||
| I mean, the reality, I've been telling people all across the campaign trail that I'm running against Klobuchar. | ||
| You know, we're down six to 10 points, depending on which polls you look at. | ||
| But I'm tied with the independence, which is a great hearkening for where this country is headed. | ||
| If in Minnesota, liberal Minnesota, And it's a pretty purple state, technically, but the culture, at least the narrative, is liberal. | ||
| For me to be tied with the Independent says that the MAGA right-wing conspiracy theory ideology isn't as extreme as the Joy Ann Reads want to make it seem. | ||
| But I've been telling people very, very simply on the campaign trail, I'm under no illusions that me winning and being in that Senate, in the United States Senate, will bring about America first policy through the Senate. | ||
| To me, the United States Senate is not a body that can even think of passing America first legislation right now. | ||
| The number one thing all these U.S. senators should be called to the fire to do is filibuster any and every omnibus bill that comes through that Senate chamber. | ||
| And the people who don't – going forward, this has to be the standard of the America First and MAGA movement. | ||
| The U.S. senators who will not filibuster the omnibuses should be primaried and they should be voted out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That should just be the standard. | |
| That's it. Yep. | ||
| All right, Royce, thanks for being in the war room. | ||
| I cannot tell you how many fans you got at Liberty University. | ||
| Whenever you come on, they say, man, Royce was on again, Dave. | ||
| And I said, I know. | ||
| He's a tough act to follow. | ||
| Thanks for being with us, brother. God bless you. | ||
| Thank you, Dave. Thank you, brother. God bless. | ||
| You bet. God bless you. | ||
| Go win. All right. | ||
| It's our honor to have Stephen Sokup in the war room with us. | ||
| Stephen, welcome. | ||
| And you saw the T up there. | ||
| I cannot imagine this. | ||
| I can't imagine this. | ||
| I can't imagine the gaslighting the left is doing to us, right? | ||
| There's $10 billion deals across the Ukraine. | ||
| We're fighting a war for those $10 billion deals, it appears, according to Mike Benz. | ||
| There's all sorts of gaslighting going on across the economic issues. | ||
| If you want to end this contest about elections, let's just have paper ballots in 50 states and that's off the table, right? | ||
| Then we got a backup system. | ||
| Everybody knows you had a fair election. | ||
| So these guys are just blowing a bunch of smoke for no apparent reason. | ||
| But I wanted to have you on today, especially on this ESG and the capture of our Fortune 500 firms. | ||
| And it goes way up the chain, the pressure being put on them by the deep state, Mike Benz, Tucker's latest interview, the billionaire class. | ||
| I just brought up the energy deals in Ukraine, and there's much more. | ||
| But I'd just love to have you share your perspective of how we get out of this. | ||
| How do we get back to neutral, where business just does business instead of trying to run our political lives? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Stephen Sokup. Well, if I had the answer to that, I would be a very wealthy man and a very happy man. | |
| It starts with the grassroots. | ||
| It starts with people looking at what is going on in the financial services world, what's going on in capital markets, and understanding just how Completely foreign to free markets the current system is. | ||
| How rigged it is and how unfair it is to people who simply want to run a business, simply want to invest for their retirement, simply want to live a normal life without having to get into politics. | ||
| Yeah, how unfair is it? | ||
| Just give us a few bullets. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Certainly, the inflation thing is a huge issue. | |
| But the way that they manipulate companies, you have the big three asset management firms. | ||
| You've got BlackRock, you've got State Street, you've got Vanguard, with collectively more than $20 trillion in assets under management. | ||
| And they're deciding how companies should behave, how executives should behave, based not exclusively on their fiduciary duties, but instead on politics, things that they think are valuable, things that they think are more important than your retirement. | ||
| For example, fighting climate change or looking for diversity among employee groups or looking for diversity among corporate boards. | ||
| These are the things that people who run the big three, who are making these decisions, believe are more important than your retirement. | ||
| And it's a big deal. | ||
| So why are they more powerful than the CEOs? | ||
| Why are they more powerful than the CEO of a Fortune 500 company? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's stunning. Well, they're more powerful because they hold the purse strings. | |
| We've been fighting a PR war against Larry Fink and BlackRock for probably four or five years now, trying to make people aware of the fact that Larry Fink is the most powerful man in the world. | ||
| He is in charge of, as I said, trillions and trillions of dollars, and he is using We've been fighting | ||
| this battle. Drawing people into this, teaching them about what's going on and teaching them about how aggressively some of these firms, including BlackRock, are in pursuing an agenda that is not necessarily financial. | ||
| But it's almost exclusively political. | ||
| And yet, they're still getting more and more funds under management. | ||
| Most of these funds are coming in because people are adding to their investments with BlackRock, not simply because BlackRock's investments are appreciating because of the market going up. | ||
| So, people are... | ||
| Right. Right. | ||
| Right. In this marketplace, we have a bias toward big business, and especially toward big asset management. | ||
| And there's not a whole lot you can do if the big asset management firms all decide collectively that they want to do something. | ||
| It takes... | ||
| Literally, trillions of dollars off the table that they can affect the way corporations behave. | ||
| And so, to fight back, we have to build our own institutions, build our own asset managers. | ||
| And we have to keep them small, because the bigger they get, the more likely they are to collude with the other big boys. | ||
| Yep, I agree with you. | ||
| I think you did come up with the answer there, Stephen. | ||
| The revolution from beneath, that's what's missing from the American present. | ||
| It was there at the founding. | ||
| It's been there all the way through the logic of Madison, the logic of Adam Smith. | ||
| It's always been the revolution from beneath, from the small guy that made the country great, largely because of the faith held by those people. | ||
| And so thanks for being on The War Room today. | ||
| We're going to get you back on Stephen Sokup. | ||
| Thanks for your contribution today. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God bless you. Thanks for having me, Dave. | |
| I appreciate it. Oh, you bet. | ||
| You bet. All right. I think another gentleman who's always positive, forced in the universe for good, Mark Paoletta. | ||
| He's with us in The War Room right now. | ||
| I think he shares our sentiment about revolutions from beneath and fighting for the small guy. | ||
| Mark, what do you got for us today, brother? | ||
| Hey, Dave, thanks for having me on. | ||
| Today, actually, we should make sure before we talk about anything else, it's the 33rd anniversary of Justice Thomas being confirmed to the Supreme Court. | ||
| Our greatest justice showed America how to stand up to the left's vicious attacks, and has gone on to write 750 opinions So we should mark that occasion. | ||
| People should learn more about him. | ||
| I put something up on my post today. | ||
| I'm also pretty stunned by the left's attack on Neil Gorsuch's Justice Neil Gorsuch, another great justice book that just came out called Overruled. | ||
| I worked on Neil Gorsuch's confirmation. | ||
| I worked with him every day, actually, as he was getting ready for those confirmation hearings. | ||
| He is a brilliant and ferociously independent jurist, but he has a soft spot for the little guy getting trampled by the over-regulation, the over-criminalization of our society. | ||
| And it really is. | ||
| It ties into all this stuff, including lawfare against President Trump, which is that, you know, the deep state comes up with law upon law upon law. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I think there's 5000 criminal laws. | ||
| There's 300,000. | ||
| This is in Justice Gorsuch's book. | ||
| Regulations that carry criminal penalties. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It's this blizzard of laws that are, you know, in a way designed to trip you up. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And you see these stories that he lays out in the book of people who are just trying to work, earn a living, getting ripped apart by the federal government. | ||
| There's an infamous case he talks about in there where there's a fisherman who gets accused of throwing three fish that are oversized back into the water, okay? | ||
| He gets prosecuted for violating the Sarbanes-Oxley Law, which is about destroying corporate records in an investigation, right? | ||
| And it just destroys this guy's life. | ||
| But this is what- Now, there's a story today, I think, out in Politico going after Justice Gorsuch for this book. | ||
| So you're seeing, again, the left hating this Supreme Court, hating these conservative Supreme Court justices. | ||
| Justice Thomas has been under constant attack. | ||
| Justice Gorsuch getting whacked here. | ||
| And it just shows, one, the importance of elections, right? | ||
| We're coming up on November on Election Day. | ||
| And what we saw happen in 2016 and the complete revolution, in a good way, talk about a revolution, of the Supreme Court, right? | ||
| Justice Thomas had written these opinions back in the 12, 13, 14 range, I think, about the administrative state and how unconstitutional it is, how it destroys people's lives, how it's these unelected bureaucrats. | ||
| Yeah. The administrative state is on the run. | ||
| And what's really set off the left, right, are the three words that Chief Justice Roberts wrote in the Loper-Bright decision, right, which is, Chevron is overruled, right? | ||
| And that gets back to Justice Gorsuch's... | ||
| And, you know, these vague laws that the bureaucrats get to use to go after you, to strangle you, to prosecute you. | ||
| You're seeing, you know, Tish James up in New York doing that, right? | ||
| With these business laws that she's trying to, you know, falsely, viciously apply to President Trump. | ||
| And it just shows you, right? | ||
| So here's Justice Gorsuch, a decent man, a terrific justice, you know, writing about the little guy getting trampled. | ||
| And the elites are mad with that. | ||
| Yeah. Hey, in a minute, Mark, with Election Day less than a month to go, give us a call out. | ||
| What's the sense of urgency? | ||
| What's at stake in the last minute? | ||
| Fire away. Sure. | ||
| We are winning. President Trump is winning. | ||
| The left is on the run. | ||
| Kamala Harris is sinking like a stone. | ||
| People need to get out and vote. | ||
| And respond to all of these lies that are out there on the social media, on however you can do it, that Donald Trump will bring America back, will make America great again, will secure our border, will take control of America. | ||
| A violent crime to stamp it out, to prosecute those folks, to deport illegal aliens. | ||
| But everyone needs to get out and vote on November 5th. | ||
| It's the most important election of our lifetime, but we are winning. | ||
| President Trump is winning right now. | ||
| And I think we'll take the Senate and keep the House, and President Trump will get reelected more comfortably than people think. | ||
| Yeah, good for you, brother. | ||
| All right, Mark, thanks for being out in the War Room. | ||
| God bless you. Keep up the great work. | ||
|

|
Thanks for the fight. Thanks, Dave. | |
| All right, you bet. All right, Grace Chong in the war room. | ||
| Grace, come on in here. | ||
| How are you doing today, Grace? Give us the final call out, all the bullets. | ||
| Everybody, get out your pencil. | ||
| Listen to Grace. Take the notes. | ||
| Here's how you fight the fight. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Go ahead, Grace. Number two, pencil, as Steve would say. | |
| Yes. So I have a message from Steve, and all he wrote was, we must assume we are behind and have to dig out every last vote. | ||
| So I just want to start off by saying just ignore the polls. | ||
| Anyone saying, you know, yes, Mark, we are winning. | ||
| But, you know, I think we just have to make sure that we it's like we're 10 points behind. | ||
| So just work, work, work. | ||
| Yeah, that's all we have to do. | ||
| And so today I just want to focus on something crucial, which is ballot chasing. | ||
| So, you know, A big part of it is, of course, getting out to vote and calling, texting, and sending postcards. | ||
| But it's also make sure to follow up that they are voting or that we've chased every last ballot and making sure that every single vote counts. | ||
| And just keep registering people to vote and making those calls, keep sending those text messages. | ||
| All of that is vital. But now we have to double down on chasing ballots, just as important, if not more. | ||
| So ballot chasing, just to quickly go over it, it's the process of following up with people who've requested absentee or mail-in ballots to ensure that they actually return them. | ||
| So also, make sure that the people that you called or the people that you registered, that you follow up with them to make sure that they actually go and vote. | ||
| Drive them there. You know, volunteer time that way if you don't want to call, text, or send postcards. | ||
| So I want to recommend TP Action, and it's their program called Commit 100. | ||
| Caroline talked about it in the morning. | ||
| So they will pay for your hotel, and they will pay for you to chase ballots in Arizona and Wisconsin. | ||
| So it's just a great opportunity to be part of history. | ||
| This is what JoJo and I talk about. | ||
| We're like, oh my God, this is so much work, but we're part of history. | ||
| And, you know, the posse, you guys love to get into the weed of, you know, all of it. | ||
| So this is a great opportunity for you guys to really make a difference and also get paid. | ||
| Also P-A-Chase, PennsylvaniaChase.com, P-A-Chase.com. | ||
| They also pay folks to chase ballots. | ||
| If you have any questions about any of these two programs or any other organizations that do this, reach out to JoJo at jojowfma.proton.me. | ||
| She will give you all the resources, all the links, and just get involved. | ||
| Everyone, 100% participation, and let's win this. | ||
| I know we can do it. And thank you so much, Posse, for everyone getting involved. | ||
| That's it. All right. | ||
| Can't say no to Grace. | ||
| Let's go. Go fight win. | ||
