This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
unidentified
Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
The people have had a belly full of it.
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper ▲ ● ▼
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
unidentified
MAGA Media.
jake tapper ▲ ● ▼
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

War Room.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Vann.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, Monday, 6th January, year of early 2025, starting at 1 p.m.
today, just like four years ago.
To begin the certification process of the 47th President of the United States, that would be Donald J. Trump.
Of course, Real America's Voice, Charlie Kirk, is going to follow us.
They'll be covering it live.
We'll be back 5 to 7, just like four years ago.
Back 5 to 7. Hopefully have Ben Burkham with us soon.
We'll be going through a lot.
David's going to join me in a minute.
I want to go back to the task at hand now.
So three things.
A couple things.
Let's look at this kind of, we're going to overlay the crises ahead of us with the action program of the president and the next administration.
So remember, we'll always go back to the three things that are facing us immediately.
The kinetic part of the Third World War, which is number one on the Eurasian landmass.
You have then this financial crisis.
We have spending and debt.
The budgets, tax cuts, rejuvenating the economy, all that, kind of in the middle, and that is the one that's existential.
And the third is the mass deportations of the 15 million illegal aliens that came here just on Biden's watch, and of course now all these issues with the phoniness of legal immigration.
The first two...
Are bad enough.
And you say, hey, you're starting the kinetic part of the Third World War.
It's like 1939. And you've got here an invasion that's taken place by these unctuous people put your fellow patriots in prison and hunted them down like dogs and treated them like dogs.
You see the way these people are treated.
You see the way they're treated in prison.
And then you have the deportations, the invasion, all that.
As horrible as that is, horrific as that is, Those are not existential, which, I mean, could be game over if something's not done.
Clearly, things have to be done and will be done on both the illegal and legal immigration, or I guess I can't even call it legal immigration anymore, the scam of the H-181 visas.
But the one, the centerpiece, the getting the House in order financially because of this debt, you just look at the debt clock, and Cain over at Citizens Free Press does a great job every now and again of just taking the debt clock.
Which is mathematically tied with this formula of how the money is being spent actually and just projects it forward.
That, as you know, you're at $40 trillion in debt, I think a year after President Trump takes the oath, I think sometime in 2026. That is existential.
Now, if you layer on top of it, so what are we doing about all this?
You have three kind of areas also.
So those are the things you have to take on.
You have kind of lines of action.
Lines of work is what we call it.
And there you have the confirmation process in the getting of the team that's not confirmed.
But you also have the confirmation process of your leaders in your different departments.
Then you have what I call, and I use a military term, the violence of action.
We're not saying the action is violent, but the violence of action and moving forward.
And that's the executive.
The executive orders how you fire off the football, right?
How you fire off the football.
And the third is actually then also legislatively, how do you bring this forward?
And so it got back to last week, and this is why I've been on Polly Pockets Johnson, and I will stay on him.
Because now we have coming out of yesterday, and it may have changed because I'm going to play a Hugh Hewitt clip in a moment.
That President Trump's putting up on Twitter, or on true social, you know, I got one big beautiful, we're going to do one big beautiful bill.
So we got our confirmations, you know, heading down, and now I think people have kicked up enough dust that some of those are going to take place earlier.
Some of those, Pete Hegsits is going to be in the 14th, right?
I think people are going to be earlier.
Also, there's coming out that Thune's telling Trump that Hegsits is going to get over the hump.
Remember, they were getting rid of Hegsits a couple weeks ago.
Before this audience got involved, they're going to get rid of him and get DeSantis or something.
They're going to drop him like they dropped Gates.
They didn't because of you.
And now Thune's telling Trump that Hegseth looks like he's going to get through.
You've got Kash Patel.
All the word we have is Kash Patel is going to get through.
Right?
We're hearing Bobby Kennedy is going to get through.
There's all kind of work coming out, articles, people on Twitter behind the scenes.
Bobby Kennedy is going to get through.
As of right now...
It looks Pan Bondi's going to get through, obviously.
Noam's going to get through.
Obviously, Marco Rubio is going to get through.
The only one that I hear any question about at all is Tulsi Gabbard.
And Tulsi is, I don't know, not brief right or whatever, but that's something that can also be sorted.
So as it stands now, and you've just got to move them forward.
Besant, all of them, you've just got to move them forward.
We've got to have those.
We've got to go earlier in that week.
And for the committees, and the committees got to vote, and then we got to swear some people in.
President Trump needs his team immediately.
The executive orders, I don't know, you can see 50 to 100 executive orders.
I'm sure they've got Office of Legal Counsel doing what is, remember, Office of Legal Counsel is kind of the law firm inside the Justice Department.
It really writes opinion letters, like you would go to Sullivan and Cromwell or Cravath.
Swain to get an opinion letter on a merger deal or some sort of offering, right?
The OLC gives you opinions on executive orders to make sure they are constitutional.
That great scene in Lincoln that he kind of says, hey, my Attorney General, he wasn't that excited about the Emancipation Proclamation as an executive order.
Wasn't that thrilled about it.
Kind of had to weave in and out.
As Lincoln said, he said he didn't think it was all that legal.
Had some questions.
That's the Office of Legal Counseling.
They're now working around, so these executive orders are going to hit off the football right on day one, and I think that's going to be part of the shock and awe process.
I think you're going to see good things.
The thing that's most disturbing, and I think because President Trump wasn't offered a true alternative, you have, because you have this budget, I don't call it a gimmick, but a budget instrument that we can use to get around the filibuster, and Biden's used it.
We use it in the first, we use it in the first.
I think it's how we got the tax cut done.
It's called reconciliation.
This audience knows because we've been talking about it.
And so you have the difference between you have two possible, but it's very tough to use two in a year because it's logistically cumbersome.
But when you got two, you could use two.
And so the thought from the beginning is to use both and to do one immediately, immediately, immediately on the border.
On deportations, on energy, on the substrate of the Trump basics.
Let's get officially money, border wall, deportations.
Let's get it rolling, baby.
And we actually codify this and we have some real money.
We're not having to scrape it around and go on.
Particularly now, they're telling us we're hitting the debt limit and you're kind of in the emergency measures for the waterfall.
Remember the cash waterfall?
So yeah, there's some money around there.
But no, you want to have it codified and carve out some money over here.
And if you have to have offsets, fine.
Get the offsets done.
But get it done.
And it should be done the afternoon of the 20th.
But to do that, to do that, you've had to have been working on this maybe before we got the win.
Maybe you should have done this in August and September.
Should have been working on it and doing committee meetings on it.
You're in charge.
The 118th Congress was yours, controlled by Republicans.
Now we're in the 119th.
Were we working on it?
Do we have something?
Do you have an alternative to give to the president?
We're president.
We can do two.
We can do one now quick.
We can do one quick.
And in that one, we can do the wall.
We can do deportations.
And I'm going to throw in some energy and maybe even throw in a little defense.
Make everybody happy.
And we can do that and we can pass it quickly and have on your desk ASAP to go with your shock and awe executive orders that unwind all the Biden madness, particularly on the border and other things, and boom.
You have what Robert Bartley at the Wall Street Journal calls muzzle velocity.
You're firing off the football and you're driving the action.
You're driving the action.
You're a protagonist.
Just like you're a protagonist after J6. Why did we turn it around?
Because this audience, having President Trump's back, became the drivers of action, became the protagonist in the story.
The hero's journey.
You must...
Drive the action.
You must seize the institutions.
If you don't, they're going to overwhelm you.
Their purpose is not to let the MAGA movement be in charge.
Not to let President Trump be in charge.
To make President Trump react to events instead of the driver of events.
Let me repeat this.
To drive events, not to react to events.
When they control the administrative state and they control the deep state, they make you react to what they did.
This is what the first term was about.
Because we didn't have enough bodies.
We didn't have a Project 2025. Not just the policies, but the training and networking of subject matter experts and people got to know each other.
That you could fill out the 3,000 non-Senate confirm and get the Senate confirmed and have a deep bench to drive the action, to drive the action, to drive the action.
What has President Trump been offered?
On January 1st, Jason Smith and Johnson went to Mar-a-Lago and they sold President Trump on one bill.
Yes, you sold him on that.
I know you sold him on that.
I know the details of how you sold him on that.
And it's not acceptable.
You did it for two reasons.
Jason Smith wants to hide all that lobbyist nonsense and crap in one bill so you can bury it.
Jason Smith, you have to, in ways and means, understand something.
This audience...
That came back from January 6th and reversed history and changed history with Donald Trump as their champion?
Do you honestly think they're not going to go through and did Julie Kelly and Darren Beattie and put out all things but force multiply and made the world see and understand what had been done and that Biden was illegitimate and that theirs was a righteous cause and here's the reason?
Do you honestly think, sir, they're not going to go through your tax thing chapter and verse?
Don't think you're going to bury those days of burying all the goodies to the cartel, all the lobbyists and the wealthy and all the games and shenanigans is not going to be buried.
It's not going to be buried.
And Johnson, because you have failed yet again, here's what Johnson's good at.
I finally figured it out over the weekend.
Here's what he's great at.
He's great at sloughing off responsibility and blame to President Trump.
He has an innate ability to actually shift blame of his failures to President Trump.
Your failures, you sit in a room, you're not ready to go with the two bills.
You're not ready to go with the first.
Nothing has been done.
Let me repeat that.
Nothing has been done.
So you can't put a skinny bill up that focuses on immigration and deportations and energy.
Nothing has been done.
It's not ready.
So now you've convinced the president it's one big, beautiful bill.
That strikes me as an omnibus.
Is not what we've done here and the work that we've done to get away from the omnibus?
To get back to single subject bills?
Is that not this effort?
Johnson, nobody read you in?
Jason Smith, nobody read you into that?
You think we're just kidding?
unidentified
That this is just all some, yeah.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Dude, there's a thousand people in prison.
Their people's lives have been broken.
People have been bankrupted.
Do you think we're kidding here?
You think this is just something we're just doing because we've got nothing else to do early in the morning on a weekday and this audience has nothing to do?
Do you think we're kidding?
We're not kidding.
This is about taking this country back and setting it on a path of peace and prosperity for people living today and for future generations, full stop.
Anybody that's with us on that is with us.
Anybody at Guinness is a Guinness, and you're a Guinness.
You're not with us.
The games have to stop, and not the happy talk.
Oh, we got a whole series of wins.
Your crap on the 1500 page, we've got conservative wins.
Stop it!
Stop it!
There were no wins in that.
And don't think you're going to give us some budget.
We got $4 trillion of cuts.
Now, they all start in years 6, 7, 8, and 9. No games.
President Trump's got a great phrase.
No games.
No games.
The time for games are over.
So now you've got President Trump jammed up on an omnibus bill that you tell him, swear to him, is going to come in April.
And I just read this morning, they're even saying Memorial Day.
It's not going to be till June.
It's too late.
unidentified
It's too big.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
It's too complicated.
You, Johnson, have failed.
Failed already.
Short break.
unidentified
I prefer one bill.
I also want to get everything passed.
And, you know, there are some people that don't necessarily agree with us.
I'm open to that also.
My preference is one big, as I say, one big, beautiful bill.
Now, to do that takes longer.
You know, to submit it takes longer, actually.
So it's a longer process.
I would say I'd live with that.
I believe we'd get...
I don't know.
To me, it just is a cleaner.
It's cleaner.
It's nicer.
Now, with that being said, we get some border work done a little bit earlier, et cetera, et cetera.
But the border work, you know, we have a lot of money that we're going to be clawing back from the Green News scam and all of the trillions of dollars, billions and trillions.
You usually have to use the word trillions nowadays, unfortunately.
But from the trillions of dollars that we're going to be clawing back, and we have money.
We don't need it desperately, immediately.
You know, two months is going to make a difference.
So I can just say this.
The border is going to be secure.
We're going to start it immediately.
Tom Holman is central casting.
He's going to do a great job, and that whole group is going to be fantastic.
And I did it before, and we're going to do it again.
We had the best border we've ever had, and now we'll have the best border we've ever had times two.
I would prefer one, but I will do whatever needs to be done to get it passed.
And, you know, we have a lot of respect for Senator Thune, as you know.
He may have a little bit of a different view of it.
I heard other senators yesterday, including Lindsey, talking about it.
They prefer it the other way.
So I'm open to either way, as long as we get something passed as quickly as possible.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
You see, there's a president saying he's open to either way.
There's the president right there.
I'm open to either way.
I hear Thune, I hear Lindsey, I hear these guys going to TV. I'm open to either way.
He's open.
He's a deal guy.
He wants to execute and get on with his program to turn this country around.
Hell, they tried to put the man in prison for 492 years.
Look at the hell he's gone through for four years.
He wants to get on with it.
It's incumbent upon us to assist him in getting on with it.
In one big bill, first of all, you get bled out just because the media is going to be all over you.
That first hundred days is so important.
It's just important, not just symbolically.
It's important to fire the football and start getting stuff done.
That's why we had a big legislative win right out of the box, and you would have had that if you'd started work in August and September.
Because then you should have known we were going to win.
It was obvious to everybody.
It should have been obvious.
If it wasn't obvious to you, you weren't doing your work.
Why not?
This is what you're supposed to do.
You're supposed to give President Trump alternatives.
Here's an alternative.
We can go with two.
We got one ready to go, the other one later.
Or even go with one.
But you didn't give them alternatives.
You didn't give them alternatives because you're not ready to go with the first bill on deportations, immigration, and energy.
It should have been done.
Hell, you got John Thunen and these guys.
If they're going to sit there and go, because they understand the complexity of the tax bill, it could be summer.
Go back in 17, the predicate of the Trump revival with tariffs and trade deals and deregulation and also taxes.
It's all of a piece.
It's quite complicated.
And it's more complicated today than it was then.
Why?
Because we got $37 trillion of debt and we're running up a trillion dollars every 100 days.
That's why.
And the global capital markets and the bond market are watching everything that you're doing.
And President Trump's got these trade deals.
Now they're talking about, even some guys in his administration are talking about easing off on the tariffs.
President Trump's counting on that cash you just saw right there, the clawbacks, and there's a lot of clawbacks.
There's a lot of clawbacks.
And this whole concept, remember, impoundment, impoundment, impoundment.
We bring these concepts early, so you can start thinking of impoundment, impoundment, the clawback, impoundment of the cash to pay for other stuff.
You have to continue to give him range of options and be able to, we're going to get on this path, this is where it's going to lead, but these are the options we have to either zig or zag or continue on.
And then the violence of action.
Action, action, action.
Drive the narrative.
Continue to drive.
You see what President Trump knows why he was re-elected and brought back in all this glory?
Of the invasion of the Southern border, the invasion of the country.
And yes, the economics and all of it, driven by this massive federal spending.
Give him options.
If you think about it with the complexity that you have to do, and this is about Jason Smith and these guys playing games with the donors and the corporatists, just the natural how you've got to press it through with the complexity of all of it.
They're saying now Memorial Day.
They said yesterday, end of April.
Now they're saying Memorial Day.
They've kicked it out.
End of Memorial Day means summer.
You get into the summer, then you get to summer recess.
You might not be there until after Labor Day.
Then you talk about it kicking in.
Remember, Newt Gingrich was just on Fox a couple weeks ago saying, hey, we need to do these immediately because they've got to be done by the spring to have the impact.
President Trump, the impact of the 17 bill, which wasn't passed until I guess around Christmas.
In the fall, in the Christmas, in 17, the full impact of that didn't really kick into 19. This is why we had 19 was the golden year with everything great happening.
19. Duly note that was past the midterm, of which President Trump lost a ton of seats and led to his impeachment because Nancy Pelosi ran an impeachment, just like Hakeem Jeffries is going to do.
Hakeem Jeffries is going to raise $2 billion to flip a handful of seats to sit there and go, we're going to impeach this dude right out of the box.
We're going to go back to all the madness.
Unless we execute.
And President Trump executed, they're all saying, no, no, he wants one bill.
No, he doesn't.
He wants what works.
You owe the man the respect to give him ranges of alternatives, of courses of action, and what that means.
Right there on the Hugh Hewitt show today, he says that.
I'm open.
It's Trump.
He's always open.
If you give him alternatives, he's always open to a course of action.
If you lay it out, they'll say, no, no, he wants to do one.
Johnson pitched it at Fort McNair like it was Trump's idea.
This is how sleazy this guy is.
He's pitching it like it's Trump's idea.
President Trump wants to do what will work.
He understands he has complexity.
He's got to stop the Third World War.
He has to reverse an invasion of our country.
Oh, by the way, has to sort out a fiscal and economic and financial mess that he inherits.
Any one of those would be an overwhelming order of just one presidency.
He's got to do all three simultaneously and make sure the interconnecting parts, one doesn't overwhelm the other while being a wartime president.
He needs alternatives.
And no, he's not selling the one.
You convinced him that, hey, this is how we have to do it because of your own inadequacies.
And this is what I'm saying for that vote that took place on Friday.
It's not going to get better.
It's only going to get worse.
Because in situations of intense pressure, of situations of intense scrutiny, and the pressure of the moment, the unforgiving minute or the unforgiving moment, Then your imperfections and your failings are magnified.
That is my problem with the speaker.
We're going into it now.
Look at what happened on, go back to Hegseth and go back to Cash.
And Davis is going to join me in a second.
Davis knows this.
Go back to Kavanaugh.
Those are defining moments.
They could have gone south on Hegseth in a second.
They could have gone south on Cash in a second.
But you, this audience, had the back of these individuals, and now they're going to get confirmed and be major leading parts of President Trump's team to, guess what, execute on his plan.
Because they know, they got a feel for it.
You can tell with Hegseth, he gets it.
He has a feel for this.
Cash obviously has a feel for it.
Davis, you saw this.
This is one of the confirmations.
You were there for Kavanaugh.
Kavanaugh, we came within a minute.
I was in Italy.
We came within that close to throwing in the towel and going a different direction.
And the history of the court would have been changed if we had done that.
First off, once they smell weakness, you're done.
You're finished.
They're like a pack of wolves.
They will come after you.
Mike Davis.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, we were six weeks before the 2018 midterm elections when these bogus allegations came out from Christine Blasey Ford, this nutjob who claimed then-teenager Brett Kavanaugh sexually abused her.
It was just utter nonsense.
Her own father didn't believe her.
The people who she said would corroborate her story didn't corroborate her story.
One of them, Leland Kaiser, actually said she was pressured by Ford's allies to change her story.
So obstruction of justice, sober nation of perjury.
But besides that, I was there.
I was the chief counsel for nominations on the Senate Judiciary Committee during that process.
And it just struck me how weak some of these Senate Republicans were during that process.
And if they thought that they were going to throw Kavanaugh overboard, as I explained to them at the time, look, we don't have time.
To confirm another Supreme Court pick in the next six weeks.
And so if we throw Kavanaugh overboard because of these bogus allegations, we are going to lose the Senate.
President Trump will lose reelection.
We will lose the courts and therefore we will lose the country.
Kavanaugh was too big to fail.
So it was my job then to help these Senate Republicans.
My boss, Chuck Grassley, was the rock during that process.
I will also give credit to Mitch McConnell.
I know the War Room Posse, we don't agree with him on a lot of things, but he was rock solid during that process with Kavanaugh.
The big reason I started the Article III project five years ago was because I saw the weakness.
I saw how vicious The Democrats are with that Kavanaugh process and many other nominees.
And I saw how weak and stupid our side was.
And I wanted to fill that void with the Article 3 project.
Take my insider experience along with my outsider mindset and my fighting Irish attitude to make sure that we confirm these nominees.
We confirmed Trump's nominees, judicial nominees for two years.
Now we're confirming his cabinet picks.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Cabinet, it's amazing.
Mike, hang on for a second.
We're getting to the confirmation.
We're going to try to get to Canada and Elon Musk and the UK. All of it, if we can.
If not, we're going to do it at 5 o'clock because we have a lot to go through and only 30 minutes to do it.
Short commercial break.
Back in a moment.
justin trudeau ▲ ● ▼
So last night over dinner, I told my kids about the decision that I'm sharing with you today. - Okay.
I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister, after the party selects its next leader through a robust, nationwide, competitive process.
Last night, I asked the president of the Liberal Party to begin that process.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, Ben Harnwell joins us from Rome.
A mighty oak has fallen in Canada This clown has finally This is the Trump effect President Trump talks about tariffs Four weeks later Ten days later he goes down and takes a trip And a couple weeks later he's gone Ben give me your assessment sir Steve, I'm going to break this down in more detail at 5 p.m.
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
today.
But right now, you're absolutely correct.
This is really the consequence of the Trump tariffs that have destabilized the Canadian government.
I'd say it's 50% the Trump tariffs and 50% the Christian.
Free Klan's stab in the back of December, but both of those things together has made his political career, political future unviable.
I want to say very quickly, Steve, as an international correspondent, what is happening in Canada today?
It's exactly the same as what's happening here in Europe, in Austria, with the collapse of the Austrian government and the failure of the system to keep out the Freedom Party, the FPR, the Austrian analogue to the AFD. So these things are taking effect right across the world.
And I do hope, I know you mentioned it in the first hour of the show, Steve, I do hope President Trump holds the line on these tariffs.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Oh, no, definitely.
Ben, social media until you come back and join us in the afternoon evening show, sir.
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼

On the confirmation, it's extraordinary.
I want people to go to Article 3. You started this.
You were relatively unknown outside of a very small circle of people that really revered your professional toughness and clarity to get these, because these nominations were not easy.
Now you're back with President Trump's Senate confirmation, which is incredible.
But before you leave us, I want to talk about Matthew Graves and these guys are just relentless in coming out and saying that they're going to arrest more people.
They're relentless all the way up to the end.
What in your mind is going to stop this?
This was the weaponization of the government, really almost like the Stasi or the East Germans did it.
What in your learned opinion, sir, is going to stop this?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Let me send a message to Merrick Garland and Lisa Monaco and Jack Smith and Jay Bratt and Matthew Graves and all these other Biden partisan operatives in the Justice Department who are continuing to wage this unprecedented lawfare against President Trump supporters on January 6th.
Right now, you guys are the hunters.
Two weeks from today on January 20th, you're going to be the hunted.
So you can beat your chest all you want as you're running for the hills, as you're running for the exits of the Justice Department, and you can say what you want about the Justice Department continuing these January 6th prosecutions.
I promise you that's not going to happen.
The Article III project is going to make it a top priority to...
Very publicly put pressure on the incoming administration to end these bogus prosecutions of these January 6th defendants who are politically persecuted under the Supreme Court's Fisher decision last June.
We're also going to push very hard from the Article III project for President Trump to pardon almost everyone who was prosecuted.
On January 6th, except for the worst offenders.
And for those worst offenders, we push to commute their sentences because nothing that happened on January 6th four years ago calls for a prison sentence of over 20 years.
And I don't want to hear Biden and his administration crying about January 6th, where you had a lawful protest permitted by the National Park Service that devolved into a riot.
I don't want to hear them crying about that when they let BLM and Antifa and Hamas supporters, their Democrat base, cause a hell of a lot more death and destruction.
So Joe Biden and his Justice Department can go to hell.
Justice is coming on January 20th in the form of pardons, commutations and investigations of this obvious criminal conspiracy against the constitutional rights of these January 6th defendants.
They were persecuted and there must be accountability under 18 U.S.C. section 241 conspiracy against rights.
Nobody's above the law, as they've told us for four years.
So lawyer up.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Mike, I want to get back because our audience is a big believer in ideas have consequences.
I want to go back to this idea of the unified theory of the executive.
In the executive branch, okay?
It's not dealing with the other branch, but the branch.
He is the chief executive officer by the Constitution.
He's the chief executive officer of the United States government.
He is the commander-in-chief of the military services, the uniformed services report to a civilian, the commander-in-chief of President Trump.
He's also the chief magistrate.
What's happened since Watergate is that...
The radical lawyers and radical left carved off the Justice Department to be its own hermetically sealed institute that just did, because they were the ones that actually took.
It wasn't Woodward and Bernstein.
It was Sirico.
It was the House committees with the lawyers.
It was the Justice Departments and federal judges in the corrupt Washington, D.C. You know, a court that took down Nixon, and they hermetically sealed it after that, and they have their own branch of the administrative and deep state right there.
What is it going to take?
These people are embedded into the Justice Department to be able to effectuate what Pam Bondi wants, what the president wants, and most importantly, the will, the sovereign will of the American people.
What has to happen in your mind at the Justice Department, sir, to get back to this unified theory, which they hate, that Donald Trump is actually the chief magistrate, the chief law enforcement officer of this nation happens to be the individual that occupies the office of the president, and that would be Donald John Trump, sir.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, the left calls this a theory that the president runs the executive branch.
I would point to Article II of the Constitution where it says the executive power belongs to the president.
He is elected by all Americans.
President Trump just won a landslide victory.
312 electoral votes that they're going to certify today.
All seven swing states.
He is the president of the United States.
And the good thing about President Trump is I think he's learned his lesson.
From his first term where he had never run for office before.
He won the first time he ran for office.
He won the presidency.
And he's going to come in after four years of his presidency the first time where they obstructed him from day one with crossfire hurricane, Russian collusion.
They tried to undermine him every step of the way.
He's had four years in the wilderness.
To reflect.
And he's going to come back this time.
And I don't think he's going to mess around this time.
I think he's going to come in very experienced, very eyes wide open.
And I would say to these Justice Department and Intel officials who think they're going to undermine President Trump, the duly elected President of the United States, it's not going to happen this time, guys.
Your job is to carry out the President's policy agenda and lawful orders.
And it doesn't matter.
Whether you have a policy disagreement with the President of the United States, if you can't carry out his policy agenda and his lawful orders, you better resign from your job and go get a different job.
Maybe run for Congress, maybe run for presidents.
But if you try to subvert the will of the American people, if you try to undermine...
The President of the United States, I am going to push very hard for the Justice Department to open criminal probes on you and throw your asses in prison, because we're not messing around this time.
The American people elected President Trump again.
He has a policy agenda, and it's not going to be subverted by these Andrew Weissmans and other weasels within the executive branch.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Mike, where do people go to go to Article 3 and to become a member and support?
Because you're doing the Lord's work here, sir.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
This is why I'm not going back into government, because I can say and do whatever the hell I want without any restraint.
You can go to article3project.org, donate there, follow us on social media.
The most important thing the War Room Posse does.
Is take action.
Action, action, action.
Like you said, Steve, Kash Patel, Pete Hegseth, many of these other nominees were dead on arrival, according to the very smart people in Washington.
And then three days after the War Room Posse lit up the Senate with phone calls and emails through our Action Center, we went from dead on arrival to when can they start?
So you guys are very effective at the War Room Posse.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Mike Davis, thank you so much, brother.
Look forward to having you on here many more times.
Thank you, sir.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Thank you.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼

Warpath.coffee.
Go check it out.
Read the reviews of your compadres.
And also Sacred Human Health.
Love this little company.
Just kind of starting out over the last year or two.
Got some great products up.
Grass-fed beef liver.
One of the leaders of the company was in the airport the other day called me and said, hey, he's sitting over there and sees a guy taking the grass-fed beef liver.
He was going to go up and talk to them, but he was on a conference call about new products.

A fourth turning.
The fourth turning is you look at the Revolution and the Civil War, the Great Depression, World War II, people who were unknown, people who were totally marginal, people like General Grant, kind of a guy who'd failed and was working at his father's store, what is it, Galena, Illinois?
General Sherman, all of it.
Even Lincoln.
All marginal, when the turning starts, all become major players.
That's the Julie Kellys.
That's the Mike Davises.
That's this audience.
Remember, when this is all said and done, they're going to remember two things.
Donald Trump and the MAGA movement.
The rest of us will be forgotten.
As is right and just.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Because the commemoration of J6 and a little over an hour, they're going to start the process.
It should go swimmingly today.
Jamie Raskin and those guys may have a few tricks up their sleeves, but it should go swimmingly.
We'll be reporting all that in 5 to 7, plus we'll get to all the other news.
Massive economic news over the weekend.
Jillian Tett, one of the senior editors of the Financial Times of London, did an incredible piece on Peter Navarro.
And also economic nationalism and President Trump's plan for the second term, kind of the end of David Ricardo's laissez-faire thinking.
But we'll get into that in the 5-7 hour.
Also, MAGA versus the Billionaires, we'll get into all that.
Another big piece in the Financial Times.
A lot going on in tariffs, a lot going on about trade.
So we're going to break that all down.
Make sure in the interim, one thing we need to do is go to Birch Gold.
Talk to the Birch Gold guys about your personal portfolio and all that.
You can do that.
But also, we need you to read The End of the Dollar Empire.
If you haven't read the first five free installments, please get up to speed.
But the latest one, Modern Monetary Theory.
And I strongly recommend Jason Smith and the folks over at Ways and Means and everybody in the House read this.
This is this radical idea that kind of got embedded into the financial thinking, particularly the Biden regime.
That you could just spend money forever and if it ever got to be a problem on inflation, oh, all you had to do was then just raise taxes, take care of it.
It's not that easy.
It's a ludicrous and dangerous idea.
And we break it all down for you, however you got in this situation.
But you have to understand the idea, to understand the consequences of the idea and then how you change it.
We're big, huge believers in that ideas have consequences because you just see it play throughout history.
So birchgold.com.
Go today, set it up.
If you have any interest in precious metals, And even if you're not interested maybe in putting it into your portfolio, you should understand why it's a hedge against times of turbulence because, folks, we're going to go into turbulence.
I mean, President Trump, right now when I talk about the three lines of work and particularly stopping the kinetic part of the Third World War, Zelensky came, you know, it's a great unmasking going underway.
So he just came out last night and said, hey, unless there's an American security guarantee for the Ukraine, There won't be any peace talks.
There won't be peace treaties.
Well, hey, we're not going to get sucked into that.
You're not going to have American troops as security guarantors in Ukraine.
You're not going to have them in Syria.
You're not going to have them in Gaza.
The days of forward-deploying American troops as, you know, basically to guarantee security, which essentially they're hostages to fortune.
We're not going to do that.
We're out of that business.
And the world is going to have to wake up to that.
The elites in Europe are going to have to wake up to that.
You've talked a good game.
You've killed or wounded over a million Ukrainians.
You've killed or wounded, I don't know, 750,000 Russian troops.
The blood's on your hands.
We argued from the beginning not to do it, and now you're not going to suck the United States into this.
So it's important for the audience to understand all this, and particularly how the existential threat, the ticking time bomb is this debt.
And people laugh, oh, death doesn't mean anything.
We owe it to ourselves, all this nonsense.
Well, when your credit card is blowing up because it's 29% APR, right, and you've got a gap, your kids have to gap their monthly expenses versus their income with that credit card, and it just keeps blowing up, just sit there and tell them, oh, yeah, this is just some theoretical exercise.
It's not.
This is a live fire drill, and it's live fire in your life.
So make sure you go over to talk to the folks at Birch Gold.
To understand about gold as a hedge and particularly get all the free information.
Remember, everything in the war room is totally free.
It's your job, your task and purpose to assist us to get that information out.
You think it has an impact?
Go back to the beginning of the show.
Where were you four years ago?
Remember, within an hour, President Trump was still speaking.
In fact, he got to the podium.
Over at the Ellipse, a little late, and he talked, President Trump, I know this is going to shock people, he talked a little longer, he kind of went off script a couple of times, but he gave a very reasoned approach, very reasoned argument about how the 2020 election had been stolen.
And then Judas Pence dropped the thermonuclear weapon of his letter, and Bob's your uncle.
Well, today we reversed that, starts at 1 o'clock, Charlie Kirk's going to pick up from here, and Charlie Kirk will be covering it, Jack Posobiec will be covering it.
We'll be back.
I think it'll take an hour or two.
We'll be back 5 to 7 to give you a recap and also talk about the Elon Musk on Nigel Farage.
Nigel Farage, quite simply, is the greatest living Englishman.
He saved his nation.
We've worked with Nigel for over a decade.
We've worked with Tommy Robinson for over a decade.
Raheem Kassam was the one that broke the story on Rotherham.
When I was at Breitbart, we drove that story.
We know we've forgotten more about that story and what happened and the grooming and the rapes than most people.
We've had Tommy Robinson's back since day one, who's a great man.
I believe he's a great man.
And he's in prison right now.
We'll get into that.
We'll get into all the finances.
Ben Harnwell will join us again.
We're going to be jam-packed five to seven a night.
And with a recap of what happened today, Mike Lindell joins us.
Mike Lindell, you have done more and been persecuted more for the events of what happened four years ago of standing up consistently and starting the narrative that the election was stolen.
That now, the American people, the awakening happened, and that's why President Trump's back.
I want to thank you from the bottom of the heart of this audience for everything you've done.
And people don't know behind the scenes what's happened to Mike, how they've tried to put him in bankruptcy, how they're trying to put him in jail, all of it.
But you're a true hero and patriot and a dear friend.
So we're honored to have you on, sir.
With all of that, sell me some frickin' flannel.
I want to buy some flannel sheets and I want to buy a pillow.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
Well, thank you.
And thank you, everybody.
And yeah, we never gave up.
We never gave up.
And I think it opened so many eyes to what happened in 2020. And it helped get our real president elected.
And by the way, we're not stopping.
We are going to secure our election platforms.
