| ...that he has been about his plans for this election. | ||
| He's plotting, in open and public, repeatedly, a coup to steal the election and hold on to power. | ||
| He will take advantage of something called the Red Mirage, where more Republican votes come in first because those people voted in person, making it look like Trump is ahead on election night, and then he will attempt to use the courts to delay something called the Blue Shift, which is just the counting of more heavily Democratic mail-in votes. | ||
| That was September 2020. | ||
| And even as far back as September 2020, it was clear to everyone, Donald Trump had this plan to declare victory on election night to falsely portray all the absentee and mail-in votes that would be counted in the hours and days after polls closed as fraudulent. | ||
| Which is, of course, exactly what he did. | ||

|
This is an embarrassment to our country. | |
| We were getting ready to win this election. | ||
| Frankly, we did win this election. | ||
| No, you didn't, though. | ||
| The next morning, he started tweeting about surprise ballot dumps, taking his lead away in key states. | ||
| Trump supporters, including people linked to his campaign, hurried to a ballot processing center in Michigan. | ||
|

|
Chaos at the TCF Center in downtown Detroit, where Michigan just became a whole lot more than a battleground state as people demand access inside to watch the vote being counted. | |
| Stop the ballot! | ||
| Those are people representing the GOP that made their way down here this afternoon, encouraging workers here to stop counting the ballots, the absentee ballots. | ||
| They wanted them to stop counting the ballots so Trump would win without all the votes. | ||
| Four years later, guess what? | ||
| Trump and his allies are working on doing the same thing in an even more menacing fashion. | ||
| NBC News has obtained a video of an RNC training session for poll watchers in Michigan, giving volunteers who echo Trump's claim of widespread fraud the tools to challenge votes in 2024. | ||
| And the Trump campaign says they have 200,000 such, quote, patriots ready to go across the country. | ||

|
That there aren't many guardrails about what they're actually telling these voters. | |
| So essentially what you have is a lot of people who are coming in with these preconceived notions because they've read a lot of conspiracy theories online. | ||
| And instead of disabusing them of that notion and telling them the actual facts, telling them, for example, that Donald Trump actually did better in Detroit in 2020 than he did in 2016 and that he did not lose the state of Michigan because of some fraud scheme in Detroit, They're sort of feeding that sort of narrative and saying, you know, this could happen again instead of really educating the people that they're training about this. | ||
| And, you know, they've brought in a lot of these sort of influencers, including conspiracy theorists, To support some of this. | ||
| One of them, Jack Pozovic, spoke to a number of these poll workers during a training a few weeks back. | ||
| So they're really kind of feeding into this narrative and we really could see a rewrite of what happened in 2020 when you saw all of those individuals who we've now identified as people who are linked to the Trump campaign or on the RNC or the Michigan party's payroll who are banging up against those windows. | ||
| Any precautions being taken? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Somewhat. They're trying to get some, you know, some... | |
| I think election officials know what they're facing down here. | ||
| They know that they have all these people who believe those conspiracy theories, so they're trying to prepare for it. | ||
| But it's a tough situation because you have a lot of people who are just delusional about these conspiracy theories and no amount of facts are really ever going to stand in their way. | ||
| They're going to continue to believe that the election was stolen no matter what officials say. | ||
| If you're not taking flack... | ||
| From the Flax, you're not over the target. | ||
| Posobiec's over the target. | ||
| Posse's over the target. | ||
| I guess we're getting a little nervous. | ||
| I guess we might be doing something right out there. | ||
| But Posse, I've got the great Bill McGinley in, a guy I served with in the White House. | ||
| He's one of my favorites. | ||
| Kermag, a man. | ||
| Bill, welcome to the War Room again. | ||
| First, start off, preface this with how important the posse is and what's going to happen leading into November 5th. | ||
| And then give us your broad strokes on where we're at in the race and what people can do. | ||
| Do you do even better here in posse land? | ||
| Yeah, thanks for having me, Peter. | ||
| I really appreciate all you're doing to keep the posse informed and up to speed while... | ||
| While Steve is serving his political sentence, can't wait for him to get out. | ||
| I think we all miss him and know that his is an important voice. | ||
| The first thing I want to do, though, is I want to respond to that MSNBC report because there's a couple of things that they obviously left out that I think really kind of level set this sort of reporting that they're trying to do, which is trying to stoke fear by basically not laying out the facts of what's actually happening. | ||
| And the first thing is Conveniently left out of that story was the Axios story where the House Democrats were discussing how they were actively going to start plotting to stop the certification should Donald Trump win. | ||
| We've had a couple of articles where they've been willing to go on the record or at least people were willing to leak their plans behind the scenes to at least plant the seed that they were going to resist the Trump victory. | ||
| And it's convenient that MSNBC has decided not to report on that. | ||
| Because I think that that really gives, you know, kind of exposes the Democrats for what they typically do, which is their concern is not necessarily with democracy and people having the individual right to go cast their ballots. | ||
| Their concern is truly with power. | ||
| And I think that they're willing to pull any lever at their disposal to try and maintain power despite what the people say. | ||
| The second thing is, you know, they always like to show that scene from Michigan, you know, where people are standing outside of the glass, nowhere near where the counting is supposed to be happening in Michigan of 2020. | ||
| And remember that, number one, that was the pandemic, and so they were dealing with that. | ||
| But number two, state law really does, in many of these states, if not most of them, Provide for a bipartisan basis for poll watchers and observers to be standing there to observe the count. | ||
| This is an incredibly important part of the process because transparency is a critical, critical component of having faith in the process so you can have confidence in the results. | ||
| When election administrators take steps under whatever excuse they use to try and diminish or deny transparency, I think that that's a real problem. | ||
| And I would hope that on a bipartisan basis, Democrats and Republicans are pushing for more transparency so that when Donald Trump wins on November 5th and in the canvas afterwards as the results come in, Everybody has had full visibility into the process. | ||
| They've observed the process from beginning to end so that when the results are announced, everybody can have confidence in the tallies that are publicly disclosed and the electors that vote to vote. | ||
| You know, to basically have their certificates shipped to the Congress. | ||
| So I wanted to spend a couple of minutes on that, simply because I think MSNBC is doing a real disservice to the American people by presenting such a one-sided view of what was actually happening there without providing the context, but also explaining what was actually happening. | ||
| So, Bill, That's kind of the 30,000 foot view. | ||
| Tell us now how we're going about making sure that this election is going to be a fair and transparent one. | ||
| We've got some mechanisms in place. | ||
| If you've got some websites right now to refer people to where they can get involved in the process, please do that. | ||
| This portion... | ||
| The interview is dedicated to Steve's action, action, action. | ||
| Talk to me about what the Posse can do using the tools you're going to identify. | ||
| Yeah, one of the things I love about the Posse is the fact that they don't get intimidated by the Democratic dark money organizations that are out there dominating kind of the paid landscape. | ||
| And the real equalizer and the advantage that we have are the volunteers, the people who are willing to put the sweat equity into this election. | ||
| And there's a couple of websites that we've discussed before that I want to remind the posse to go visit. | ||
| The first one is make sure that your vote is cast first. | ||
| Go to SwampTheVoteUSA.com. | ||
| SwampTheVoteUSA.com. | ||
| And figure out how you can get your ballot cast early. | ||
| Don't wait for election day if it's possible. | ||
| If you have to wait for election day, that's fine. | ||
| Just make sure that you vote. | ||
| But you're going to find a lot of convenient information there that's going to tell you how you're able to vote. | ||
| And what I want you to do is I want you to review all of the different ways that you can cast your ballot and determine the most convenient and efficient way for you to get that done. | ||
| So number one, cast your ballot. | ||
| Go to SwampTheVoteUSA.com and figure out how to do that. | ||
| The second thing I want you to do is I want you to become one of our really great volunteers, the people who are actually going to negate all of that billions of damn dark money that's out there trying to dominate the landscape. | ||
| I think our volunteers are far more valuable than any dollar that a Democratic oligarch gives to a dark money group. | ||
| And I want you to go to TrumpForce47.com. | ||
| That's TrumpForce47.com. | ||
| And I want you to sign up to volunteer. | ||
| And we've talked about this before. | ||
| You need to become a force multiplier in this election. | ||
| This isn't something where you cast your ballot and say, my job is done, and walk off. | ||
| We all need to put the sweat equity into this election because this is your election. | ||
| Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are fighting for you, and we need to help them get across the finish line on this. | ||
| You need to call 10 to 15 of your family, friends, neighbors. | ||
| Make sure that they're registered to vote. | ||
| Make sure that they have a plan to vote early or on Election Day. | ||
| Hold each other accountable and make sure that those ballots are cast. | ||
| It doesn't have to be people that sit in your precinct. | ||
| You could have friends or family in any of the battleground states, and you need to make sure that they are going to become active participants In this election. | ||
| Democracy is a participatory process. | ||
| And a participatory process means that you are not only going to make sure that you cast your ballot, but you're going to make sure that your family, friends, and neighbors are doing the same thing. | ||
| Be that force multiplier, and it will pay dividends down the road. | ||
| Finally, if you are in a battleground state, Nevada, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, I would even put Virginia and Minnesota on that list. | ||
| Sign up to protect the vote if you have time to be one of our poll watchers. | ||
| We will get you trained up. | ||
| We will make sure that you understand the do's and don'ts, the rules of the road, and what you can do and can't do as a poll watcher. | ||
| So that you can be the eyes and ears in the room observing the process to make sure that this is a fair, transparent, legal election that everybody in the United States can have faith in and have confidence in the results. | ||
| All right, Bill, because this is so important, it's action, action, action, I want you to go once more through the websites people can go to and describe the difference between the websites in terms of what they might be doing. | ||
| Happy to do it. Swapthevoteusa.com is a website that the campaign has put up, or the RNC, that really gives you useful information about voter registration, how you can vote early in person, how you can vote on election day. | ||
| In other words, it allows you to examine and review the different mechanisms where you can cast your ballot, determine the one that's most convenient for you, and then you need to make the plan to do it. | ||
| You need to actually follow through on that. | ||
| And so making sure that you To understand the different options you have to cast your ballot is critically important because everybody understands how busy you are. | ||
| You may have kids with after-school programs that they need to participate in. | ||
| You may have elderly parents that you're helping to take care of. | ||
| Heck, you may have a job that just, you know, or you're working two to three of them, actually, in the Biden-Harris economy, just to try and make ends meet. | ||
| So we understand that time is one of your most critical commodities. | ||
| So we want you to review your various options so you can find out, you can determine which method is most convenient for you. | ||
| What's the next one? | ||
| TrumpForce47.com Yeah, Truck Force 47 is where you sign up to be a volunteer. | ||
| The campaign will put you to work. | ||
| You will be contacted by somebody in the state so that you can actually become a force multiplier in the state. | ||
| The next one is protectthevote.com, protectthevote.com, and that's where you can sign up in the battleground states to become a poll watcher so that you can be our eyes and ears in the room observing the process and alert us when there's anything that you think is going on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Is that a game day? | |
| Is that just a game day function? | ||
| Early voting and election day. | ||
| We need to have eyes and ears throughout the entire process. | ||
| It's protectthevote.com. | ||
| Protectthevote.com. | ||
| Okay, so Posse, you've got three ways. | ||
| They're not mutually exclusive, meaning you can participate in all three ways. | ||
| This is the most important thing. | ||
| You got 60 seconds left here, Bill. | ||
| Let people know how they can get in touch with you and do your closing argument, sir. | ||
| Floor is yours. Look, this election's about you. | ||
| Donald Trump is running again to be the 47th president of the United States because we've all seen what the Biden-Harris administration has done over the three and a half years to really tear down a lot of the things that Americans hold dear. | ||
| This is an election about you. | ||
| Donald Trump understands he's in your eyes and ears at the table in Washington, D.C., and we're never going to be able to right the ship, save the country, and make the government more responsive To the American people, as opposed to trying to do the things that they've been doing for the past three and a half years. | ||
| Cast your ballot. | ||
| If you can, don't wait for Election Day. | ||
| Vote early. Bank your vote so that we can concentrate on the low-propensity voters that are actually going to decide this election. | ||
| That is the great Bill McGinley doing the Lord's work here, sir. | ||
| Thank you for being in the war room. | ||
| Posse, you know what to do. | ||
| Do you think voters should take this promise of across-the-board tariffs of 10%, 20%, 100%, 500%, 1,000% coming from the Trump campaign? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You should take it really seriously. | |
| We've seen reporting just in the last month or so about how Donald Trump has the authority to even implement these without Congress. | ||
| I think that for a long time there's been constraints from even some in his own party in Congress who might pull him back from doing such a damaging act, but not anymore. | ||
| Strikes me about the way he talked about this today is he's trying to leave the impression that he actually cares about manufacturing in the United States and manufacturers in the United States. | ||
| He doesn't. He doesn't have a real plan to actually create manufacturing jobs. | ||
| He has a plan to cut taxes for people at the very top in big corporations. | ||
| That's his only plan. | ||
| And in fact, today, he kind of showed his hand a little bit in this weird and angry and kind of confrontational interview today, where he was agitated and sort of rambling the whole time. | ||
| He even showed his hand. | ||
| He belittled autoworkers by saying that American autoworkers actually just get everything shipped to them in a box, and all they do is take them out and put it together. | ||
| It's a job a child could do. | ||
| I mean, that just shows you how he doesn't actually care about the underlying issue here of creating good, high-paying manufacturing jobs. | ||
| Vice President Harris does. | ||
| She rolled out a whole plan to try to create the jobs of the future by investing in American manufacturing in the same way we've seen with the Chips and Science Act and other major investments in the last few years that are creating thousands of manufacturing jobs. | ||
| And so, again, it's all part of Trump's sort of dangerous shtick. | ||
| It would be funny if the consequences weren't so serious. | ||
| That this could happen and it could raise prices on so many middle class families across the country. | ||
| The ignorance of the people they put behind microphones at MSNBC is staggering. | ||
| Earlier in the show we had Rachel Maddow get all over Steve Bannon for publishing something called the decline of the dollar empire as if Steve wants that to happen when in fact all Steve was talking about is how Kamala Harris's fiscal irresponsibility is destroying the dollar To the detriment of the working classes | ||
| of America. | ||
| Now we got this idiot here, Chris Hayes and, I don't know, Pancho Sanja or something, who that guy is. | ||
| He's like saying that Donald Trump is belittling Auto workers because they've been reduced by globalists to simply assembling Chinese parts into autos that they can sell to Americans. | ||
| MSNBC, would you please send some of your people to economics school? | ||
| You're idiots. | ||
| What's it? Denver, what's his name? | ||
| Ian Sams, Ian Sams, you need to go and study economics. | ||
| Okay, here's the concept. | ||
| With the Trump tariffs, to defend the United Auto Workers against the unfair trade practices of everyone from Communist China to the friggin' Germans, Who dump their cars into the United States and make it very difficult for us to sell made in the USA cars. | ||
| It's like, for all of that, when you defend against that with tariffs, you bring home the factories so that United Auto Workers Can actually make parts, | ||
| engines, transmissions, pistons, all of the parts that go into a car. | ||
| And constitute the supply chain that has provided Americans with prosperity across this country, particularly across Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, where these supply makers used to be clustered. | ||
| Dude, MSNBC, when you allow the communists And the Germans and the Japanese and the Vietnamese to inundate this country with parts. | ||
| You turn auto workers who can make 40, 50, 60, 70 dollars or more an hour actually making stuff into minimum wage assembly people. | ||
| You're not belittling auto workers when Trump describes that process. | ||
| What Donald Trump is trying to do is to make the auto worker profession as noble as it used to be. | ||
| And you know who understands that better than MSNBC? The United Auto Workers. | ||
| And I'm not talking about the head of the United Auto Workers who just negotiated a deal that's going to ship all the industry off to China. | ||
| I'm talking about the rank and file who in Michigan, who in Pennsylvania, who in Ohio, who in Wisconsin, who in Indiana, Are going to be voting for Donald Trump precisely because they don't want to be turned into assembly workers. | ||
| They want to make stuff. | ||
| And because they don't want to see all of their jobs head off to China where they're going to make all the batteries and make all the electric vehicles. | ||
| So MSNBC Really? | ||
| I mean, twice today, you've exhibited your complete friggin' ignorance of any kind of economics. | ||
| And the question to Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes is, do you know what you're doing? | ||
| In which case, you're unethical, you lie to the American public, or are you just plain stupid? | ||
| Rachel, girl, the end of the dollar empire that Steve Bannon publishes is about how your left-wing policies are destroying the dollar. | ||
| It's not about Steve Bannon wanting to get rid of the dollar. | ||
| It's about him wanting to defend the dollar. | ||
| And Chris Hayes, when Donald Trump talks about bringing factories home here, Instead of having assembly plants, that's not belittling the United Auto Workers, it's elevating them back to the status they were. | ||
| You know that Mercedes at one point was importing 99% of the content of one of its vehicles to an assembly plant Here in the United States. | ||
| And calling it Made in America. | ||
| That's an obscenity. | ||
| An obscenity. | ||
| Alright. In the next segment, we're going to talk about artificial intelligence. | ||
| To set this up, if you can start playing the AI clip, Denver, that I sent you. | ||
| And we're going to go with that out. | ||
| Cut it at two minutes when we're going out. | ||
| We're going to talk with Joe Allen. | ||
| He's going to talk about it. You got that for me, Denver? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know how some terms get so much attention, they almost lose all meaning? | |
| It's like that with MAGA these days. | ||
| Yeah. So we're taking a deep dive into what it really represents, you know, beyond the rallies and the red hats. | ||
| Okay. And we're doing it through this book that landed with a thud in my mailbox, I gotta say, The New MAGA Deal by Peter Navarro. | ||
| Right. Navarro's no stranger to controversy, right? | ||
| I mean, he was a key figure in the Trump administration. | ||
| Right. But just to be clear, we're not here to take sides. | ||
| We're dissecting the ideas themselves. | ||
| So think of it almost like a strategy session happening in real time. | ||
| It's 2024, elections around the corner, and this book wants to equip Trump supporters with the core tenets of Maggie A., what it actually stands for. | ||
| And guess what? Right out of the bat, Navarro makes this really interesting link. | ||
| He traces Maggie A.'s roots way back. | ||
| Okay. Further than a lot of people might think. | ||
| Okay. All the way back to Ronald Reagan. | ||
| Wow. Yeah. He pulls this quote from Reagan talking about a national crusade to make America great again. | ||
| Huh. Interesting. | ||
| It's wild, right? Yeah. This now supercharged phrase has this, like, whole other life. | ||
| Right. This history we might not even realize. | ||
| Yeah. It's a shrewd tactic connecting Magier to a figure seen as, well, less polarizing, let's say. | ||
| Right, right. It's Zavaro saying, look, this isn't some fringe movement. | ||
| It's rooted in the American story. | ||
| Right. But whether there's a real through line from Reagan's economic policies to today's Magier, Well, that's where things get a little more... | ||
| Murky. Yeah. Complicated. | ||
| Totally. And speaking of perception versus reality, this book goes all in on the idea that Democrats have successfully hijacked the Magier narrative. | ||
| Navarro points... 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. | ||
| But what you can do right now is protect your savings by diversifying into gold with the help of Birch Gold Group. | ||

War Room, here's your host Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Steve Bannon is in prison. | ||
| He'll be out in less than 10 days. | ||
| Navarro in for Steve. | ||
| In this segment, we're going to talk about how artificial intelligence is being used Good, bad, and ugly ways. | ||
| We got the great Joe Allen in, and I want to prime the pump here. | ||
| I'm going to play... | ||
| This thing called Deep Dive. | ||
| I took a chapter from my new MAGA Deal book, newmagadeal.com, by the way. | ||
| It's 100 Actions in 100 Days, newmagadeal.com. | ||
| I took the chapter which talks about what MAGA is and means, and I asked them to kind of do their deep dive thing. | ||
| So, Denver, go ahead and play. | ||
| We're going to play a little bit more of that, and I'll tell you when to stop. | ||
|

|
Magi is dangerous? | |
| Did Democrats successfully demonize it? | ||
| Or did it just further infringe existing division? | ||
| Right. These are the questions Navarro wants his readers grappling with. | ||
| Okay, so enough buildup. | ||
| Let's get to the nitty-gritty of what Navarro defines as Magi. | ||
| Okay. He boils it down to this iron triangle, almost like a secret handshake for the movement. | ||
| Okay. Leg number one, this potent combo of strong manufacturing and defense, essentially making things in America again. | ||
| Creating good paying jobs here. | ||
| Okay. Relying less on foreign dependence. | ||
| Right. It's a message designed to resonate, especially at a time when supply chain disruptions have become almost commonplace. | ||
| Yeah. It taps into those anxieties, offers a sense of control, security, regardless of whether it's, you know, truly achievable. | ||
| Right, right. You can practically see the appeal, especially for those who feel left behind by globalization. | ||
| Right. Which leads us perfectly to leg number two, secure borders. | ||
| Okay. And yeah, you're already hearing those build that wall echoes. | ||
| Yeah. But the book dives deeper, arguing that open borders are detrimental to American workers, especially in blue-collar sectors. | ||
| Right. Navarro contends that a large influx of undocumented workers, particularly those with limited skills, creates fierce competition. | ||
| Okay. And that drives down wages for, well, everyone. | ||
| Okay. Now, it's important to acknowledge this is a highly debated issue with economists holding vastly different viewpoints on immigration's true impact. | ||
| Right. And we should say, we're not here to say who's right or wrong, but to unpack what this source is arguing. | ||
| And clearly for Navarro, this is non-negotiable, like a bedrock of Megadju ideology. | ||
| Okay. All right. Ready for the third leg of this iron triangle? | ||
| Yeah. Lay it on me. Buckle up, because this one often throws people off. | ||
| Okay. Ending what Navarro calls endless wars. | ||
| Okay, this likely harks back to conflicts like Afghanistan and Iraq, which loomed large during the Trump years. | ||
| Right. Navarro frames them as massive resource drains. | ||
| Yeah. We're talking. All right. | ||
| Those are robots. | ||
| Those are robots talking to you. | ||
| I basically fed chapter two of the new MAGA deal into their machine and that's what you got. | ||
| I mean what's interesting is kind of the the subtle woke Overtones that they manage to inject, like, oh, the chapter lumped into my inbox, or they're just very... | ||
| And it's interesting, one of the details is they can't pronounce MAGA, right? | ||
| I tried twice, it's like, they go and MAGA, whatever, okay? | ||
| But let's have Joe Allen reflect... | ||
| On what you just heard, Joe. | ||
| Is this a productive thing for society? | ||
| Is it unproductive? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| What? You tell me. Tell me. | ||
| What's your reaction to this? | ||
| Well, Peter, I'm sure you probably could have predicted that I am less than enthusiastic about this. | ||
| It is definitely impressive that they were able to take neural networks. | ||
| The program that we just heard there, I believe, is Google Notebook LM. But they have a neural network or an AI that's able to read your work and seemingly understand it. | ||
| What really scares me more than anything, Peter, is the idea that They are creating software that is better able to read and comprehend than human beings. | ||
| I worry that the AIs, as they become more sophisticated, people become more reliant upon them, and people become just dumber and dumber and dumber. | ||
| What I also noticed there too, you know, there are certain tells. | ||
| The AIs aren't able to really grasp things totally and translate it into common terms. | ||
| You hear it saying Maggie and Magi and all that. | ||
| So it's not quite to the point that if you're really looking, you don't know it's an AI. But as I told you, you know, between the segments... | ||
| Someone had fed an article of mine into the program and just sent it to me when Google Notebook LM first came out. | ||
| And I listened to it and for the first minute or two, I'm like, wow, these guys, they get me. | ||
| They really get me. And then I realized pretty quickly, I was like, oh my god, no, that's just a robot. | ||
| And it's subtle, too, right? | ||
| The woke stuff comes in subtle. | ||
| And for me, that's the danger of this, because they're going to take something, and these programmers, I guess at Google, can't help themselves. | ||
| And how do they do that, Joe? | ||
| What's the pathway to make a program in a way that... | ||
| Puts the woke stuff in. | ||
| It's like, there was a phrase in there, um, secret handshake. | ||
| Okay? It was like MAGA, MAGA folks, people, Trump supporters, like, secret handshake, that's like straight out of the Ku Klux Klan scene, right? | ||
| I mean, that's, how do they do that? | ||
| How do they program? So, it's, um, In a nutshell, the way it works is you've got an artificial neural network, right? | ||
| So it's sort of a virtual brain. | ||
| And they don't really program it so much as they train it. | ||
| They take this, they feed tons and tons of data in it. | ||
| And then the neural network begins to find patterns in all of that data, in this case language. | ||
| And then you ask it a question, and it will predict what the next word should be in the string that forms a sentence, right? | ||
| And so it kind of mimics human reasoning, even if it isn't really anything like a human brain or anything like human reasoning. | ||
| Now, the way they make it woke, so to speak, there's a few different ways. | ||
| One way is to just simply only feed one type of data into the system with a particular ideological bias in the data itself. | ||
| In this case, I imagine Google probably fed all sorts of different things in it. | ||
| They probably didn't put Mein Kampf in there, but they put mostly woke stuff in there, you would assume, maybe not. | ||
| But even after that, what they'll do is they'll put safety layers on top. | ||
| So that it will kind of trigger the machine. | ||
| The machine will, in a way, to personify it, will want to say something that is right-wing or conservative, but the safety layer will stop it. | ||
| It's kind of like a super ego to the id. | ||
| Now, one thing that's really important, and I think that people need to remember, going back to that idea that as the machines become more sophisticated, people become dumber, that it doesn't have to be woke AI. From Elon Musk's ex-AI, that is intended to be a kind of middle of the road or more based AI that will tell people what they want to hear basically from a conservative point of view. | ||
| And then you've got Gab AI and others. | ||
| It's not going to be all woke AI. Basically, as we move forward, there's going to be an AI for any type of ideological position to attach itself to. | ||
| And that's, again, to me, Peter, my real concern isn't, yes, it will be awful if all students are taught with this. | ||
| on it to understand things and they all become kind of rainbow brained. | ||
| But I don't think it's a whole lot better if you end up with a lot of human AI symbiotes that only parrot MAGA slogans instead of really thinking about the issues. | ||
| Well what's interesting here is that they have an ephemeral monopoly in the market right now, Google. | ||
| There's no other software that can do quite that. | ||
| So they have influence. | ||
| Here's the question. | ||
| If the media and everything that goes out on the Internet is censored in a way to skew it Woke and left. | ||
| And the neural networks are learning from everything on the internet that has been skewed, woke and left. | ||
| Does it not follow that you're going to get that kind of thing? | ||
| Like the most logical thing in the world. | ||
| If you read the chapter in the new MAGA deal on this, it's the most logical thing in the world. | ||
| Yeah, it's endless wars, secure borders, bring our manufacturing home. | ||
| Yet somehow they can turn it woke. | ||
| Thoughts? Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| You know, you've got, right now, Google does form a monopoly, especially on search and the contents of the internet, right? | ||
| Like what people, if you are training in AI on the internet, it's going to, in some ways, be skewed towards those elements that are being pushed forward, depending on how the training data is fed. | ||
| But you do have competitors. | ||
| You've got Claude from Anthropic. | ||
| You've got of course ChatGPT from OpenAI under Microsoft. | ||
| There are all these different AIs. | ||
| Most of them are kind of skewing to the left for sure or are hard left like Google. | ||
| You'll remember when Google turned all the founding fathers into black people. | ||
| So you do have that issue, right? | ||
| If you end up with an information environment, especially if it's under penalty of legal action, Right. | ||
| Right. Right. Then if you end up with everyone reliant on AIs, then you end up, again, with a lot of rainbow-brained proto-cyborgs. | ||
| Again, though, I hate to keep beating on this, but I'm not any more optimistic about this process if you end up with something like Brock, which is supposed to be middle of the road, or something like Gab AI, which is obviously like hard right. | ||
| What we are facing is an era in which people are not able to think for themselves. | ||
| It's not going to be any better if the AI is thinking for us. | ||
| Joe, in the last 30 seconds here, tell us how to get your great book and how to stay in touch with you. | ||
| I'm putting up a lot of stuff on Jobot.xyz. | ||
| I've got a piece up right now about the supposed man-made hurricanes. | ||
| I don't think the audience is going to be surprised what my conclusion is. | ||
| And of course, the book Dark Aeon can be found there. | ||
| Signed copies available. | ||

| Great to talk to you finally. | ||
| Thank you very much, man. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Navarro in for Bannon. | ||
| You are in the War Room. | ||
| We're going to go right out to Sally Grubbs in the great state of Georgia. | ||
| Sally, tell us what's going on, boots on the ground. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good morning. Yes, what's going on, boots on the ground. | |
| First of all, with election numbers, Georgia has broken the initial early voting record. | ||
| Over 300,000 people that got out the vote yesterday, so we're excited about that. | ||
| But what's really got my concern right now is Are the rules. | ||
| We've had six rules passed by the state election board that are now under attack with legal proceedings in the Superior Court of Fulton County. | ||
| My home county of Cobb County, the election board there, voted to file a lawsuit, two different lawsuits, concerning counting the ballots. | ||
| Not counting the votes, but counting the ballots on the precinct level. | ||
| So unfortunately last night a ruling from a hearing that was had yesterday on a restraining order with Judge McBurney Unfortunately, he found that the task was too difficult for people to count pieces of paper. | ||
| And so he has ruled against that election board rule. | ||
| We have hearings continuing today in the internal vigilance case. | ||
| So it is just an all-out, knock-down, drag-out over some very simple, common-sense rules on the state level with the Georgia State Election Board. | ||
| Is the rule appealable that you just got a negative ruling on? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is appealable, and I'm sure there will be an appeal done. | |
| There are attorneys representing the state election board that were, because of the conflict of interest that exists with our Secretary of State, In our state election board, there was outside counsel that was brought in, so it's a complicated legal thing, but it's just very mind-blowing that they don't want to count the pieces of paper just only election day and only counting the ballots to make sure that it reconciles. | ||
| Quick question for you. | ||
| You're excited about records, 300,000. | ||
| How excited can we be if we don't know whether they're Republican votes? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do we know? Well, you know, we have a pretty good, you know, finger on the pulse of what's going on in Georgia with our red counties. | |
| And all indications are that a great deal of them are. | ||
| We have our third Lewis County, which is DeKalb County, It seems like it was down in DeKalb, so that's good news. | ||
| So we had a rally here in Cobb County last night with President Trump. | ||
| Byron Donalds came. | ||
| Of course, our awesome Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones was here, and Senator Kelly Loeffler, and Congressman Barry Loudermilk, and Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. | ||
| So we just had a blockbuster night last night, and the energy in the room was definitely palpable, and you could tell by all the stickers that people went and voted yesterday. | ||
| All right, Sally, how can people stay in touch with you and how can they help you out? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, if you will just go to cobbgop.org and we still need Election Day poll watchers. | |
| I cannot emphasize that enough for all the GOPs in the state of Georgia. | ||
| Please go to cobbgop.org if you're in Cobb County. | ||
| If you're in another county, find your GOP. If you have any questions about it or need further direction, go to gagop.org. | ||
| And sign up with the state party. | ||
| We'll get you trained and we'll make sure that you're out there on election day protecting the vote. | ||
| I'm going to put you on the spot here. | ||
| I'm going to give you the opportunity right now to welcome Mike Lindell to the war room and turn it over to him now. | ||
|

|

| So, Mike, is mystore.com part of my pillow? | ||
| And here's the question. | ||
| How did you possibly get that website? | ||
| Did you have to pay an arm and a leg? | ||
| I mean, it seems like somebody would have had mystore.com. | ||
| They did. It's an interesting story. | ||
| I bought it from him and he got it back in 2004. | ||
| It's quite a story. I have all the social media platforms. | ||
| It was the first my next to my space. | ||
| My pillow came right after that. | ||

| And you can go to MyPillow, too, and you go to Steve's face And my story is that there's a crossover there, but you're leaving one website and going to another. | ||
| But all the MyPillow stuff is still available, too. | ||
| This is freaking awesome, Mike. | ||
| I hope you broke this news right here on The War Room, buddy. | ||
| I hope you didn't give that to MSNBC, right? | ||
| All right, that's the great Mike Lindell. | ||
