Speaker Time Text
steve bannon
Honored to have our next guest, Tucker Carlson, joins us.
Tucker, you've been on the road.
You've been doing these huge events in stadiums.
You had the president around the other day in, I think, Glendale, Arizona.
Absolutely mesmerizing.
I think the president was up there for two hours.
Give us your sense of where you think we are in this whole thing.
tucker carlson
Well, I just had the same...
First of all, welcome back.
And I just want to say directly to you what I've said to everyone you and I are friends with in common, which is that your courage right before you went into prison was one of the most amazing and inspiring things I've ever seen.
You behaved like the man I want to be on your way into prison, unfairly, on fake charges, and you never whined.
And I've never really seen anything like that.
So I just wanted to say that directly to you.
Thank you for that.
My sense of where the race is has—oh, I mean it, too.
It hasn't changed in the past several months.
Trump is the choice of the country.
In a free and fair election, without cheating, he would win.
The question is, do we have that system?
Obviously, we don't.
And what I'm really struck by is how virtually every Trump voter I talk to, and maybe even some on-the-fence voters, says basically the same thing.
It's just a question of how much the Democratic Party cheats in this election, which is another way of saying the whole country seems to have accepted the reality that one of the two big political parties doesn't believe in democracy, is willing to cheat and ignore the will of the population, of the citizenry.
That's really dark.
You hate to think you live in a place where people just accept that as normal.
It's not normal.
It's criminal.
It's immoral.
And we should do everything we can to fix it.
And the last thing I would say is, as someone who spent, I don't know, something like 15 hours in depositions imposed on me by voting machine companies, and I was never named in any suit by a voting machine company, but they went out of their way to harass me, I think funded by Reid Hoffman, stole all my text messages, leaked into the New York Times.
I'm bitter about it still, but for the last year and a half, the whole conservative media has been cowed into ignoring what's really obvious, which is we should not have electronic voting machines.
They don't work.
They're not more efficient.
They're not better at counting, and they don't produce the result faster.
The only reason to have electronic voting machines is if, you know, you want to subvert them.
It's insane that we have them, and no one feels free to say that, so I just want to, and I think I've been proven right on this.
And we have every reason to be suspicious of electronic voting machines and don't want anyone tell you otherwise.
steve bannon
What in seeing the opposition that we have here, it's deeper than just a political party.
And it's deeper even than...
And you've come out of and know the media as well as anybody.
There's this apparatus that used to be called the military-industrial complex, but now it's the intelligence community, it's the tech community, and it's the legal apparatus that has gotten into a formidable...
Beyond an administrative state and something that people call the deep state, but it's not really that deep.
It's up in your face.
The victory that we have here is a populist uprising and really grassroots, because Trump didn't have a lot of support at the beginning of this part of the journey.
How do we confront that?
Because that's what's going to be quite evident, I think, starting in the next couple of days.
And because, Tucker, you know this.
They're just not going to sit there and pat us on the head and say, hey, this is great.
You guys turned out more voters in North Carolina and Arizona and Wisconsin.
And isn't it lovely that Tucker and Elon and Tulsi Gabbard and RFK and all these new people have come to this I mean, there are three components to the coalition that Trump is facing off against, and all three of them see their very existence threatened by his candidacy.
tucker carlson
The first is the actual deep state, the bureaucracies that control our country and have since at least November of 1963.
And they're utterly vested in the current system.
And they fear above all disclosure.
In other words, they've committed a lot of crimes.
We have the outline of some of those crimes beginning with the murder of the president 60 years ago.
But a lot subsequent to that.
And where did all the Ukraine money go?
There's never been an audit.
And so if Trump has declassification power, some of them risk going to jail.
And they know that.
That's the first part.
The second part of the coalition is business.
And that's simply a function of the size of the federal government.
It's the largest human organization in history.
It has the most money.
And there are businesses, particularly in the finance sector, that are totally dependent.
I mean, if you're Larry Fink or anybody in Larry Fink's category, you know, you can't continue to make billions of dollars without the pension funds who are all, you know, public employee pension funds are all part of the system.
And so you're really vested in this for financial reasons.
And the third and most obvious part of this coalition is an entire social class, upper middle class, mostly white, urban people who have jobs that are basically going away because they're not necessary.
This would be the entire NGO sector, the education sector, all the soft jobs, the marketing jobs that our economy doesn't actually need that are, in fact, a drain on the economy.
They're not productive in any sense.
They're not creative.
They don't build anything.
They basically just leech off the system already in place.
And these people, most of whom I don't think understand this consciously, but they know it on a gut level.
These people are really threatened by any change.
And by the way, change is coming in the form of AI anyway.
All these people are going to be out of work.
They will never make it into the class they aspire to join, which is the ruling class ever.
But you drive through the suburbs of our cities, Washington most famously, but also New York and Philadelphia and any city on the eastern seaboard or on the west coast, and you see clusters of Kamala Harris signs.
What is that?
And these are, you know, upper middle class white families.
Why are they so vested in Kamala Harris?
Because they understand that their membership in this class is at stake.
They feel deep social anxiety, status anxiety.
I know these people.
You do too.
You've lived around them.
I have as well.
And they understand that their world is collapsing.
It's all going away.
It's all about to be revealed as unnecessary.
AI will reveal that their jobs are just unnecessary, and that includes lawyers and some physicians, too.
And that's why they are so emotional about this election, because it's not simply about Trump.
And they'll say, oh, he's an orange, he's vulgar, he's a rapist.
No, they'll make up some justification for it.
But what's really happening is their world is collapsing, and they know it's collapsing.
And they're panicked.
And very few of them are thoughtful enough or altruistic enough to put aside that fact, which is to say their future, and try to make the country better.
So really, it's everybody with power against Trump and Elon.
That's the way I see it.
If he wins, it'll be a miracle.
It'll be a historical event.
steve bannon
The historical event in closing the win, right?
Because remember, go back to 16, where it was immediately the nullification project of Russian interference, all of that.
When you have those forces of the established order aligned against you, And this is obviously, I think, going to take us a while to work through on the voting, all that.
What would be your recommendation to President Trump?
Because you have to be maniacally focused.
This is where you can't just be throwing out stuff.
You have to be maniacally focused of how you close this victory and then rapidly, because you're not going to have unlimited amount of time.
You're going to have some limited amount of time to start to make some pretty fundamental changes.
What is Tucker Carlson's recommendation?
tucker carlson
Well, I mean, it's enormously complicated.
You know, in other words, what does Wednesday look like and Thursday, Friday, Saturday for the next two months until Inauguration Day?
It's really hard to know.
Here's the difference between what we saw in 2020, which as someone who was on the periphery of that watching carefully, I was hosting a daily show at the time.
It was enormously frustrating to watch because the response was incompetent.
I think the difference between then and now, four years later, is that Trump is not alone.
I mean, as you'll remember very well, in 2020, he couldn't get a lawyer.
He couldn't get a lawyer, and he was roundly criticized for hauling Rudy Giuliani out there in front of the microphones, and I thought Giuliani did his best.
It's not his area, it's not what he does, but he tried and was mocked for it, and ultimately, they tried to send him to prison for it.
But that was a decision made in desperation.
I mean, there was no competent lawyers who were going to represent Trump.
They weren't allowed to, as we now know.
This time, Trump has an actual coalition.
I mean, the country has changed.
American politics has changed.
The things that you predicted in 2016 are finally coming to pass.
I think you can't overstate the significance of Elon Musk joining this.
The guy, not only the richest person in the world, but the man with the most to lose is involved in this.
The largest federal contractor.
I mean, Elon Musk joked to me and he has, I think, many times that he's going to go to prison if Trump loses.
You know, I don't know if he's going to prison, but he'll be destroyed for sure.
And he's doing it anyway.
So that gives a lot of different people heart.
People who are vested in the system.
Mark Andreessen.
I mean, you see David Sachs.
I mean, you see people with a lot to lose on Trump's side.
And they've said so publicly.
And they're marked for destruction if this doesn't work.
And so they will be at Trump's side, I think, in the aftermath.
If this is contested, I pray that it isn't.
I think all of us do on both sides pray that it's not contested.
But if it is, it's not going to be Trump out alone with Jenna Ellis sort of holding press conferences and hoping for the best.
Right?
steve bannon
Yes, 100%.
Something that's come up in the last couple of days, I know, because obviously I've followed you for years, you were at Daily Caller, Andrew had Breitbart, then at Fox.
You've been very hesitant in the past to talk about I was fascinated by this revelation of this event that happened in your life.
Do you think that there are deeper forces at play here?
Is this more than just...
Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk and a bunch of guys running around talking about in this material world, you know, politics and being Democrats and taking on the intelligence, legal, financial apparatus.
Is there something deeper going on here?
tucker carlson
Well, Breitbart, who I was just thinking about yesterday, what a good man who's been gone for, gosh, 12 years anyway, I think, used to famously say, That politics is downstream from culture.
Culture is downstream from the spiritual battle.
So not only is the battle in the unseen world, not only is it part of what we're seeing, it is actually what we're seeing.
We're seeing the physical manifestations of something that's been going on for eternity.
As for why, I don't talk about that stuff.
I mean, on the one hand, I'm a wasp, sort of trained not to talk about that kind of stuff.
No, it's just true.
It's a cultural thing.
Talk about money or religion in public ever.
It's hard for me to talk about it with my wife.
And for another, I never want to hold myself out as some paragon of virtue because I'm very non-virtuous and have led a really pretty spotted record, I would say.
So I don't want to discredit in any way the faith that I have.
But I will say, yes, I have experienced that personally.
That sort of popped out in a conversation I was having with an old A friend of mine called Scooter Downey and it wound up on camera.
I was a little bit shocked to see it.
But yeah, no, I was on February 20th, 2023.
I was attacked in my bed by a spiritual being and clawed and left bleeding and scarred.
And do I understand what happened?
No, of course I don't.
I don't really understand anything.
But that did happen to me.
I don't care if people believe me or not.
It did.
And I think it was just a momentary glimpse of something that's happening at all times, which is, again, this war between forces that we can't see but that has been ongoing and has been, in fact, described by every culture since the beginning.
Every culture that we know about has described this battle, and in fact, it's been the basis of every religion.
It's certainly the basis of Christianity, which I think is true.
By the way, factually speaking, I think Christianity is true, but even if you don't, I think you can acknowledge that we're the only culture that hasn't been really absorbed in thinking and talking about this.
Not since we dropped the atomic bomb in Nagasaki, the second one, in August of 1945 and decided that we were gods and the god himself no longer existed.
Since then, we have been a secular society, and that's why we're now being destroyed, in my view.
But even if you don't buy any of that, you have to acknowledge that we're living in an anomalous time.
This is the only period, these 80 years, where people haven't been daily discussing the spiritual battle around them.
Every other culture And in fact, the remote ones still do.
And they're all right and we're wrong.
And the big change in the moment that we're living in is people are awakening to this fact that we've been on this vacation from reality, a vacation from spiritual reality.
And of course, it's not just a part of what we're seeing.
It's definitive.
And I'm not just saying that anyone who disagrees with me is evil.
I'm not saying that.
I have been evil many times in my life and unfortunately will be again.
So I'm not, again, I just want to be really clear that I'm not sort of Holding myself up as a great person or a perfect Christian or anything like that.
But this exists quite apart from me or my behavior.
It's true.
And now it's sort of unmasked.
And anyone who's paying any attention at all, I mean, look, if you're making the case that sometimes we need to have an abortion, okay.
If you're making the case that abortion is an affirmative good, you are evil, you're practicing child sacrifice.
And that is exactly what they're doing, as every culture before us has.
But to see the Treasury Secretary that dwarf Janet Yellen get up and say, you know, you can do your part to help the American economy by killing your child, that's no different than the Canaanites, actually.
So if people who don't see that clearly, that's exactly what it is.
Worshiping abortion, the killing of kids, not as something that needs to happen, unfortunately, but as something that is good, that's pro-abortion.
You know, people, and I have to say, I'm sure I'll be attacked for saying this, but I really believe it.
People are like, oh, well, we had another hurricane, must be global warming.
No, it's probably abortion, actually, just being honest.
Like, you can't do that.
You can't kill children on purpose, knowing that you're doing that in exchange for power or freedom or happiness or whatever you think you're getting in return.
You can't participate in human sacrifice without consequences.
You just can't.
Sorry.
I'm sorry to say that.
Trust me, I'm a secular person from La Jolla, California who was baptized in the Episcopal Church.
And if I can see that, if it's obvious to me, then I think it's very obvious to a lot of people.
steve bannon
How is that event then, how has it informed Your life today and what you're trying to do.
Because I find this the most...
Of all your insights and things on politics and power and everything like this, I'll be blunt.
I think this is the most profound direction of your thinking.
I mean, when I read it the other day, I would say, wow.
Because, yes, Tucker is a wasp.
Tucker is one of those guys.
He's not going to get emotional.
You said about me not whining.
You don't hear Tucker whining.
He's not that type of guy.
I think this is absolutely fascinating.
How's it informed, not just your life, how's it informing you as one of the most significant figures, public intellectuals on the world stage?
tucker carlson
Well, I mean, I think it's just reminded me of what I don't understand, which is always a good starting place to wisdom.
I mean, if you seek to be wise, not just informed, which is simple, But to be wise, to make sense of the facts that you've accumulated, which is the goal of adulthood, then you really have to begin with a profound understanding of your own ignorance, lack of foresight, with your own lack of wisdom.
The root of wisdom is knowing how unwise you are, I guess, is another way of putting it.
And this has just reminded me of that.
This happened to me.
Again, I don't really know what it means.
I have a lot of suspicions, but I can't confirm them.
It was spiritual.
I'm positive of that.
I know that.
But what does it mean?
I don't know.
So that is just very helpful to be reminded of all that you don't know.
It's very, very helpful.
And human disasters always begin in the same place, which is in hubris, which is in the false certainty that you know what's going to happen.
You know the consequences of something.
You know what the future will be.
And you know that you're God, basically, is what you're saying.
And this is just another reminder to me that I'm not.
So I'm really grateful for that.
Second, I would say it's another...
It's a reminder of what the goal is.
And the goal is to get right with eternity.
The goal is not just to win an election.
And elections do come and go.
I think this is the most significant in the history of the United States.
That's obvious.
The crimes being committed against the country are more profound than any time the open border invasion is a larger crime that's been committed against than Imperial Japan or Nazi Germany committed against the United States.
It's the worst thing that's ever happened to the U.S. That's my opinion.
But it's still nothing compared to, I don't know, the end of history or eternity.
And so it's just important to keep your eyes on the bigger prize, on the only prize that matters.
The only question that matters is what happens when you die.
And it's crazy to me.
That I haven't spent every day for the last 55 years meditating on that.
That I grew up in a culture that actively suppressed questions like that.
That didn't want to talk about death.
That considered any conversation about what happens when you die offensive or out of bounds.
I can't believe I grew up in a place like that.
Because it's so dumb.
It's just ridiculous actually.
The only thing that unites every person on earth is death.
That's it.
That's the only thing we all have in common.
Every one of us.
We will die.
And so the fact that we're not daily discussing what happens then is just like insane.
Trust me, that's like a secular rational position on it.
You don't have to be a Christian or religious in any sense to acknowledge that that's just true.
No one ever talks about that.
And so I just want to approach this election with that perspective.
And that event, that attack on me has helped me to do that.
So again, I'm really grateful for it.
I wouldn't change it if I could.
steve bannon
You said something, I want to go back to about the dropping of the atomic bomb and the beginning of secular society.
My dad and the greatest generation fought on the battlefields of that conflict and were one of the driving forces with obviously the Russian people and the Chinese people to deliver us from that time from Imperial Japan and fascist rule in Europe.
But at the same time, Oppenheimer, and this is what's so chilling when you say about secular, he used, I think it was the Hindu god Vishnu, they called the project the Trinity Project, right?
And at the very test there in New Mexico, he quoted what the god Vishnu about now, you know, I'm the destroyer of worlds.
Right?
Don't you find that chilling?
Or is that tied to your...
Since that time, it's been all...
We've now dropped the spiritual, which even Oppenheimer realized in The Greatest Generation.
We kind of went to what is a totally materialistic secular society that leads America to this place in 2024.
And the instrument of its turnaround or its rejuvenation is a guy like Donald Trump.
tucker carlson
Well, we didn't drop the spiritual.
We just embraced, you know, another element of it.
I mean, if you're quoting a pagan god as you're incinerating civilians with a nuclear weapon, I mean, I think it's pretty clear that that was the pivot point in America's history.
And it's just so interesting how resistant a lot of people who I consider friends, who I agree with on most things, are to acknowledging that, you know, they'll call you a pro-Hitler, you're a Holocaust denier if you question the nuclear weapons or whatever.
I don't care.
Of course, I'm none of those things.
It goes without saying, or it should.
No, I'm just noting the obvious, which is that American society changed profoundly in August of 1945, and it's reflected in the culture, it's reflected in the architecture, the art, the design, the literature.
Nothing was the same after the end of the Second World War.
Again, it's not a pro-Nazi statement.
I couldn't be more anti-Nazi.
Obviously, I'm an American.
Um, I care about this country and what happened to it after 1945.
It's a very clear demarcation line and seems obvious to me that nuclear weapons are demonic.
There's no upside to them at all.
And that anyone who claims otherwise is either ignorant or doing the bidding of the forces that created nuclear technology in the first place, which are not human forces, obviously.
And let me just ask you this, which I've asked a million people at dinner parties, but never in public.
What was the moment we can point to that nuclear technology was invented?
We can point to Isaac Newton and say, what happened?
Fell on his head.
Or we can point to Albert Hoffman in his lab messing around with the ergot bacteria.
That's when LSD was made.
I've never met a person who can isolate the moment where nuclear technology became known to man.
And so where did it come from exactly?
Oh, German scientists in the 30s, really when?
Name the date.
And I've never heard anybody do that.
It's very clear to me that these are demonic.
I mean, these are evil.
Their only purpose is to destroy the innocent, to murder the innocent.
They've only been used once.
And I think there's an interesting ethical debate about their use.
Was Truman right or whatever?
But if you take three steps back, you could say, well, wait a second.
If you end up killing, incinerating tens of thousands of civilians, that's just a bad thing.
Let's just be honest, that's just a bad thing.
And anyone who does that is gonna pay consequences.
It's just true.
And by the way, the fact the second bomb was dropped on the Christian population of Japan, which was majority in Nagasaki.
In fact, it was cited in on a church in Nagasaki.
Was that an accident?
Why Nagasaki exactly?
And by the way, why has every subsequent American war resulted in disproportionately the deaths of Christians?
That would include Vietnam, by the way, where the Catholic population was decimated.
Up to and including Iraq and Syria.
Now in Russia.
Why is it that our use of force consistently since the end of the Second World War has been against Christians?
That's been the effect to kill Christians.
The bombing of the Balkans in the 90s under NATO. Why is that?
And I just don't think it's an accident.
Clearly it's not an accident.
And I'm very distressed by it.
And it's not anti-American.
My family's been here since the freaking founding of the country.
I'm not gonna stand and take that.
I'm not hardly anti-American.
I'm the most pro-American person I know.
I love America.
And I still hardly have to say that.
It's not anti-American.
I'm distressed about what's being done to my country.
I feel an ownership stake in this country.
I was born here.
I'm a citizen.
In my name and with my money.
Why wouldn't I? In a much more profound and emotional way than I do when I say look at the CCP's treatment of the Uyghurs, which is clearly bad.
I would never defend it, but I don't feel as emotional about it because it's not my country.
It's not being done in my name with my money.
And so everything went wrong then.
And there are bad things in America before 1945, but the dissent has been precipitous.
And you can hardly say that this country won that war.
In what meaningful sense?
Why don't you go to Kyoto or Tokyo and then come back to New York and L.A. and tell me in what sense we won.
These are very obvious observations.
I just picked them up from traveling.
I didn't read them in a book.
I just noticed.
And why is that controversial to say it?
Why does the entire staff of the Daily Wire call me a Nazi for saying that?
I don't really get it.
What is that?
What are you defending and why?
What are you defending and why?
And let me just say with humility, you shouldn't be defending the killing of innocents.
You really shouldn't.
And if you are, you ought to ask yourself why you are.
steve bannon
Tucker, absolutely amazing.
How do people get, the show is the best it's ever been.
How do people get to your show on Twitter and how do they get to the rest of your content, your new network?
tucker carlson
Just via my name, my now widely discredited name, which is Tucker Carlson.
You can go to tuckercarlson.com or I think it's Tucker Carlson on X or whatever.
It's there.
It's easy to find.
steve bannon
Brother, you think it was hard before?
Wait till they hear this.
Their heads will be blowing up all day.
So it's fantastic and deeply profound, sir.
Deeply profound.
I want to thank you for coming on today.
Appreciate you.
tucker carlson
Congrats, man, on getting out.
steve bannon
Thanks, Tuck.
Thank you, sir.
Wow.
You see in what's coming around President Trump, you have Tucker Carlson.
And this is Tucker Carlson on a journey that is not just deeply profound, but it's going to have a massive impact given his ability to communicate with people.
As a public intellectual and how accessible he is, particularly to younger people who oftentimes just in getting on with life, you know, don't have time to think about this or don't think about it.
You got Elon Musk.
You have Tulsi Gabbard.
You have RFK. You've got JD. You've got Vivek.
You've got you've got a just as was it?
So many people are coming around this.
That the MAGA movement and kind of what President Trump has drawn in.
And you see then, you look out and you see that, hey, African American men are not voting for her.
Hispanic men are not voting for her.
The Arab Americans and the Muslims in Dearborn, in the cities around Dearborn, are not voting for her.
You have...
The Somalians in Minneapolis have a press conference and endorse Trump.
There's something happening here that's profound.
And look at the kind of hollow arguments from Kamala Harris.
And it's just not Kamala Harris.
She's drafted at the last minute, kind of thrown out there.
When I say that lack of gravitas.
But then you hear Tucker and what we just heard there.
And I've followed this guy for many, many, many years, and he is pointed in a direction that who knows where it leads.
But this is what the fight's about.
And you are the muscle of this fight.
You're going to have intellectuals, you're going to have ideas, you're going to have concepts.
I said today, I put up on Getter.
It's a great article in Semaphore about left-wing populism.
And I said, it's so obvious.
The future politically is populist.
Either left-wing globalist populist or right-wing nationalist populist.
But populism.
In the major...
Organs and institutions of media have not had the common decency just to dive down on that.
It's all, they're fascists and they're garbage.
Well, hey, that's not going to work because you can see where this vote's going to come out.
Right?
And I'm not talking about victory or defeat.
I'm just talking about the big muscles in politics right now are populist.
And you layer on top of that The Elon Musk and the RFKs and the Tucker Carlsons at that level hitting on all cylinders.
It's a new dawn.
I can actually see the sunlit uplands.
We've got a lot of work to get there, trust me.
A lot of wood to chop.
Short break.
unidentified
Stephen K. Band.
steve bannon
Okay.
That was the most unbelievable interview with Tucker, if I do say so myself.
I had nothing to do with it.
It's kind of like Tucker out in Glendale with President Trump.
I think President Trump was up there for, I don't know, an hour and a half or two hours with Tucker.
I think Tucker got in five minutes.
President Trump was just on a roll.
I mean, he'd do these 25-minute riffs.
But I commit to this audience, we're going to get Tucker back after we get through the madness we're about to go through.
We'll get Tucker back on and we'll drill down more then.
I'm absolutely blown away.
Particularly the irony that his theory of the case is in 1945, which most people would say, hey, the atomic weapon, that is really the beginning of this empire of which our founders and revolutionary generation would have fought against.
And I keep saying, if they came back today, they'd spit on the floor.
Because they warned you they didn't want to be a part of an empire.
They definitely didn't want to be a part of an oligarchy.
And that's what was allowed to happen.
But Tucker actually takes it back not to the Kennedy assassination, not to the upheavals in the 60s.
He takes it back to the beginning, really, to what people would say with the height, and that would be the...
Dropping of the Atomic Weapon in 1945.
The book, Rogues, Rebels, and Outlaws, this thing's on fire.
I think it was number 20 on Amazon the other day when we put it up.
It is a magnificently, stunningly beautiful book put together by my film and TV producer, Dan Fluitt.
Didn't know he had this talent, but for still photography, it is absolutely mesmerizing, and the writing is spectacular.
If you like what you just saw, Tucker's in this book.
Tulsi's in this book, correct?
Tulsi?
Tulsi?
Tucker?
MG? Everybody.
Basically 99% of the people.
Couldn't get to some, but everybody that's been part of this crew for the last four or five years is in here.
The people that made it happen and the people that were the contributors and the talent and the stars that came on here.
So make sure you go to Amazon today and check it out.
It will blow you away.
A fabulous Christmas gift.
The pictorial history of the war room.

Uh...
steve bannon
You talk about yin and yang.
I got Tucker in his most reflective in what this is all about.
And I think he's up in the wilds of Maine where he lives near the Canadian border.
And now I'm going to go to the great state of Texas in Chip Roy.
Chip, walk me through, because they're talking about they can flip Texas, they can beat Ted Cruz.
That MAGA is receding down to Texas and that the turned Texas purple is ascendant.
How does President Trump and Ted Cruz and everybody stand down there?
unidentified
Well, Steve, great to be on.
Great to have you back.
Really, truly great to have you back.
Thank you.
And thank you for what you did for this country in fighting for all the people by taking the stand that you took.
Sorry for the background noise, but we've got a lot of people here turning out for Ted Cruz.
I believe that Ted Cruz and particularly President Donald Trump are going to have a very good night, a very good day tomorrow here in Texas.
I think there's a lot of, you know, false hope by Democrats that they're somehow going to flip Texas.
chip roy
But I do want everybody out there, particularly all the The only thing between us and victory is the couch.
unidentified
And if we don't show up, then we can lose Texas because of all the numbers here.
Chuck Schumer has dumped tens of millions of dollars on top of Ted.
The polling that showed it in the single digits was accurate.
chip roy
But because Ted's been spending it, we've been out, we've been rallying, we've been covering the state, I think Ted's in a Yeah, we cannot get complacent.
steve bannon
Texas is the backbone of the MAGA movement.
We cannot get complacent.
You must turn out tomorrow.
Now, I want to pull back the camera and nationally for the House.
President Trump's third victory in second term We've got to pick up a couple of three seats here, sir.
unidentified
Right.
And look, let's reiterate how critically important it is.
Can you imagine if we are successful in getting Donald Trump back to the White House, but we don't have the House?
They will fight ceding him.
As you pointed out, Jamie Raskin has already said so.
There'll be a lot of us that'll be standing on the floor of the House saying our job is to count the elections.
We need a Republican House to do that.
A Democrat House will not.
And that's really important.
And so we've got to turn out.
There are some really close races.
The last numbers I saw, 10 seats in terms of the House.
So we can win and have a 10-seat majority, but that's if we turn out because there's about 20 seats that are in the margin of error.
And look, this is not just a time for choosing between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.
You remember, you're a student of history, President Reagan's great speech in 1964.
That really wasn't about Goldwater and Johnson.
What it was really about was what trajectory we were going to take the country.
Unfortunately, Steve, we chose Chip,
steve bannon
where do people go?
Your Twitter feed is normally on fire.
Where do people go to follow you?
unidentified
I-P-R-O-Y-T-X. That's my personal account on Twitter.
You go to boy.house.gov on my official website.
Look, Steve, I want to reiterate how important it is to have you back in that chair.
A few of us, I think, were pretty weak replacements.
We couldn't replace you, but we tried to kind of keep the fire burning.
steve bannon
But what you did, go on and Well, no, thank you, Chip, for all the support you gave the staff and for coming on here and co-hosting.
It was so controversial, we decided no more congressmen after that, but we'll talk about that later.
Chip Roy came in and was a fire breather the entire time.
We had 100 congressmen call us up and say, hey, if Chip Roy gets to do it, I get to do it.
Chip, Congressman Roy, known you for a long time.
You're a great guy.
Good luck down in Texas tomorrow.
We need Ted Cruz to win big.
We need President Trump, and he's got to show up.
So thank you, sir.
Thank you, sir.
Let's go to Georgia.
Jenny Beth Martin, Tea Party Patriots.
Jenny Beth, the House is important, President Trump.
Are we set in Georgia?
I know folks got to show up.
Walk me through Georgia.
Walk me through North Carolina.
And I know Tea Party Patriots are all over the country.
How are we going to pull this off?
unidentified
She froze.
steve bannon
Okay, let's reboot her.
Got Jenny Beth.
Try to track down...
Can we track down Navarro?
Navarro's a no?
Is Peter upset that I brought Tucker in and blocks?
You can go ahead and tell me that.
Peter and I go back a long way.
I love Peter.
I love Peter.
Let's try to...
Because if I don't get him up now on the show, I'm going to hear about it for you.
unidentified
Hey, you cut off my great hit for Tucker.
steve bannon
Can we go ahead and try to do that?
Okay.
My staff has given me stink eye.
My producer is saying, no, we don't do that.
We're going to reboot Jenny Beth Martin.
I think Tucker did...
An incredible job of talking, and Chip Roy, because Chip's, you know, also one of the smartest guys to know, talked about kind of the stakes here.
It's just not Trump versus Kamala Harris.
This is about a fundamental direction of the country.
And I think that's why, and Tucker's very profound, just tell me when she's up, we're good.
Tucker's very profound that Trump has a team around him now, right?
Much more in 2020.
And he's been attracting people that heretofore would not identify as Republicans.
Right?
And people from every stage of life, every walk of life.
This is my point about what I saw in Danbury, which I told you about the first step back and what President Trump had done in prison reform, in that African American men and Hispanic men are just not going to vote for him.
I'm not so sure majority of them are prepared to vote for President Trump yet, although many in the community, in those communities, admire President Trump and like his style.
They like the cut of his jib.
But...
We can do this in stages.
And particularly we can do it in the stage of, hey, if you don't vote for it, and this is what's killing them in Pennsylvania right now.
Look at those numbers coming out of Philadelphia.
In 16, always remember the way we won in the Blue Wall, which Morning Joe, every day was these guys don't know what they're talking about.
They're clowns.
They've got to be in Florida.
They say Florida.
They've got to be in Georgia.
They've got to be in Arizona.
And I was telling people, hey, if we've got to go down, if we've got to go to Arizona and Georgia, this thing's over anyway.
Just trust me.
We're going to win.
We win Ohio.
The gravitational force will pull it.
We need to be up in the blue wall.
Hillary Clinton came out of Philadelphia.
I think 200,000 votes, like 250.
I forget the exact number.
She came out of Philadelphia way beneath where they thought they were going to be.
And she never made it up.
And we won by 42,000 votes.
You're seeing something here that's even deeper, eight years into this, nine years into this, right?
You're seeing something here more profound.
And that is you're seeing the beginning of a new populist nationalist coalition that puts not simply the country first, but also wants to put the American citizens first.
The American citizens deserve a better deal than anybody.
Right now it's the exact reverse.
All the burdens on the working class and the lower middle class shoulders.
Right?
It's your kids that serve in the military.
They're walking a patrol in the Hindu Kush.
They're on ships in the Red Sea, in the South China Sea.
They're in the 101st Airborne in Romania, on the border of Ukraine.
And it's your taxes.
And don't forget your pension funds.
That are paying for this whole thing.
Talk about a Greek tragedy.
You're being destroyed by the globalists.
Your economic opportunities and stability are being destroyed by the very thing that you're funding.
It's your tax dollars funding this.
It's your private equity.
When Tucker just talked about artificial intelligence, and this is what gets me about this election.
For Kamala Harris, and I say this as an observer, it's been a Seinfeld election.
It's been an election about nothing from her.
It's the politics of joy, and then it's the dark nightfall in America with the fascists, right?
You talk about artificial intelligence, which is going to eviscerate, quite frankly, the...
The credential class.
But it's going to start with the program.
You know, learn to code.
STEM. Turn our public schools into a STEM factory.
Learn to code.
Well, that's going first.
So everything artificial is going to...
Not even a discussion about it.
Didn't even mention it.
Also...
We just added $100 billion in the debt on Friday.
This is not a ticking time bomb anymore.
This is what's driving inflation, the refinancing of that $36, $37 trillion, short term, one third of it.
It's what's embedding inflation into it.
You have to have that discussion now.
You have to come up with a real program.
Geopolitically, the massive issues of geopolitics, the massive issues of capital markets and actually how this whole thing's pulled together.
I call it the long con, because it has been a long con.
That's not artificial intelligence, the singularity, the driving convergence of forces of biotechnology and advanced technology and artificial intelligence.
No discussion of that at all.
None.
What we're talking about is very ephemeral.
But there's deep, deep forces here.
And that's why you see this collection of people.
Look, Elon Musk, you know, Elon Musk and I disagree on everything on Earth.
Except that President Trump's got to be President of the United States.
Right?
That's fine.
If you're in a coalition, you're in a coalition.
Not going to agree with everything.
Might disagree with some pretty fundamental things.
But that's what's coming together at the very deeper level.
Take a short break.
We'll be back in the war room in just a moment.

steve bannon
A lot of what we're talking about, particularly on debt, we haven't discussed that a lot, in particular since I got back, because we're in the middle of a political war right here, as you know, We've got the armies lined up, and tomorrow is mass mobilization Tuesday for the vote, but we'll get back to that.
I've got all kinds of stuff that's happening there, but go to birchgold.com slash ban and get the free End of the Dollar Empire.
Hey, Vanity Fair gave it a good write-up.
They deconstructed the show, and I thought they did a pretty good job.
The writer was quite good.
It was very informative.
So go check it out today.

Jenny Beth Martin, Georgia, North Carolina, your app, Tea Party Patriots.
Where do people go?
What do they do?
How do we got it?
Everybody's got to get off the couch and represent tomorrow.
Ma'am.
unidentified
Well, thank you so much, Steve.
I'm so glad that you are back on the show.
Georgia is ready to go.
We have to get the rest of the vote out now in Georgia.
But as far as election integrity, we have great people who are on election boards in the metro Atlanta counties and in our state election board.
We've got poll watchers in place and Trump's legal team.
And the Republican Party Chairman Josh McCune are taking rapid and quick action when needed like they had to do over this weekend.
And they will continue to do that as problems arise.
People are on the ground and activated even in North Carolina where there's been a hurricane.
They love President Trump.
They know their life.
We'll be better off with him than it has been the last four years.
So now, Steve, what do we need to do?
You're a posse.
We have to make sure that we get out the rest of the vote.
You hear President Trump and J.D. Vance and Elon Musk and you and all of us saying, talk to your friends and family and get them to vote.
jenny beth martin
Well, our app with Tea Party Patriot Citizens Fund, if you go to winelections.com, winelections.com, we will match up your contacts with the leaning Republicans who have not yet voted in swing states.
unidentified
And then you know who you need to talk to to chase those ballots and make sure they vote.
You can text them today, then text them tomorrow morning, and text them tomorrow afternoon and make sure they vote.
Steve, if it is as close as it officially was in 2020, every single vote matters, and we've got to make sure they turn out and vote.
steve bannon
We'll have you back on, if not deceiving, we'll have you back on tomorrow during the day.
Give me your coordinates.
Where do people go to get you following social media today?
Where do they get the app?
jenny beth martin
Go to winelections.com and we've got links so you can download the app on an iPhone or a Droid.

steve bannon
Honored to have you on here.
unidentified
Thanks, Steve.
So good to be with you again.
steve bannon
Thank you, ma'am.
Same, same.
Even before we get our Warpath coffee jacked up, we start with our Field of Greens.
We start with the healthy—coffee's healthy, too, but we start early.
Miles Grimard joins us.
He's the CEO of Field of Greens.
Why do I want to start my morning with Field of Greens?
Why does the audience want to start?
Why is it a must-start beverage, sir?
unidentified
It's a must start because, first off, great to see you on the other side of the camera again, Steve.
But it's a must start because our doctors, every ingredient, every real organic food in the field of greens is chosen for their specific benefit for each organ in your body.
I know we've been making this pitch for a while on the show, but so much so that Auburn University is now doing clinical studies to prove out that it does exactly what we say.
And they're proving that it can also reduce your biological age.
I'm not allowed to say exactly what the results are yet, but we're a few months in and everything's looking amazing.
So we're really excited that they saw how amazing the product is.
And once this is done, we're hoping we can come out and have the science behind what we already knew was true and say that it is the best fruit and vegetable product on the market.
steve bannon
Real quickly, you have a competitor that is carpet bombing cable TV with television ads.
What's the difference between Field of Greens and the competitor?
Because the competitor is everywhere with this massive marketing campaign.
What is the difference between Field of Greens and your competitor?
unidentified
The number one difference is the real food versus extracts.
You're going to cook out a lot of the benefits of it, and then you also don't know where it's coming from.
You don't know, well, ours is actual, real, organic.
It has to come from organic farms.
We work with 38 different farms around the world, and it has to come from organic farms to be in our products.
And theirs is extracted.
Not only that, but we can legally say that there's two Full servings of fruits and vegetables in ours.
None of our competitors can say that.
Because if you're going to need a couple of capsules worth versus a big scoop of fruits and vegetables, just right there, the amount of content you're getting is you can't compare it.
So it's the organic as well as it's real food.
It's not extracted out.
steve bannon
Perfect.
Now, where do people go?
What I love is sending them to your site to get all the information.
Where do people go?
Because this is a whole new world for them.
Where do they go to get more information, sir?
unidentified
Yeah, it's fieldofgreens.com, promo code Bannon.
And also, again, I guess almost for selfish reasons, but we've been on 300 different podcasts advertising now.
And your audience is loyal to you.
They trust what you say and endorse.
And we really appreciate that because you're always...
And your audience is always one of our top.
And we really appreciate the loyalty to you.
And therefore, thanks for the partnership.
steve bannon
No, but look, people love this product.
We love it.
So I want to make sure that you guys get a full hearing.
Miles, glad you're still CEO. I'm kidding.
You're one of the best.
You're one of the best.
unidentified
Thank you so much.
steve bannon
Love you guys.
I appreciate it.
Go check it out today.
Grace, let's get it up on social media.
Mo, let's push this thing out.
What helps us get going rolling so hard early in the morning.
Here in the war room.
Okay.
I'll bring a bunch of media this afternoon.
I think I'm doing Meg and Kelly, Jesse Kelly, PAG's show, a bunch.
Getting on a bunch of these Zoom calls to make sure everybody is jacked and focused because we've pre-positioned this, you guys have, and you've gotten all the voter registration.
Everything has worked out.
Now we just have to close the deal.
We closed the deal two ways.
Massive turnout tomorrow and get out the vote.
And then the election integrity, all you people that signed up to be poll workers and poll watchers, all this training that's going to last a couple of years.
It's tomorrow's Normandy, right?
Today's the last day of prep, so get focused.
Tomorrow's going to be an intense day, and hey, they're going to be intense every day after that.
So strap in.
Okay, we're going to be back here at 5 o'clock, and then we're going to join Charlie.
Hopefully, maybe join Charlie here in a minute.
We're going to toss to President Trump.
We're going to go back to the rally, then Charlie's going to come in.
We're going to be back here 5 to 7, and then I'm going to try to join Charlie's broadcast of the last hurrah.
It'll be in Grand Rapids, Michigan, sometime late this evening.
Donald J. Trump will finish...
The 2024 campaign, exactly where he finished the 2016 campaign.
Fantastic.
So great about this.
Okay.
Charlie Kirk's up next.
We're going to cut and toss to President Trump's, President Trump, one of his last rallies, this one in North Carolina.
When a man comes around, takes us out.
unidentified
We're looking good.
Thank you.
Thank you.
These guys don't let us down.
I mean, I took the man from North Carolina.
I moved him to the top.
That's a nice statement.
When all those other things were falling off a cliff, right?
Bing.
Ballots have been found.
This guy had 603 lawyers, and we had him stymied.
You don't think they would have done that here, too?
But we have a good legal team now.
We're watching them, and they're watching.
They don't know what.
I think they're...
I think they're very upset at what we've done, but Michael has really established some power, some power to all we want.
And we don't want any...
We just want a fair election.
That's all we want, you know?
A friend of mine and former acting attorney general, Matt Whitaker, thank you very much.
Alice Johnson is here.
Where's Alice Johnson?
Oh, look at my beauty.
Somebody came in to see me.
They said there's a woman that's been in jail for 22 years, just approximately, but like around that number.
A beautiful woman, a great woman.
Everyone in prison loves her.
She's like the person that everybody, she's of high quality.
And how much longer does she have to stay?
Another 28 years.
She's been there for 22 years.
The model prisoner, and people called me about it.
I've been hearing about her.
And what happened was amazing.
I checked it out.
I said, wow, this is, that's a hell of a big sentence.
For doing what people do now when they don't even get fined, right?
So she's in there for 22 years.
