steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Pray for our enemies.
unidentified		Because we're going medieval on these people.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Israel's not 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 try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
		It's going to happen.
jake tapper ▲ ● ▼		And where do people like that go to share the big line?
unidentified		MAGA Media.
jake tapper ▲ ● ▼		I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
unidentified		Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼		War Room.
unidentified		Here's your host, Stephen K. Baff.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Wednesday, 8th, January, Year of the Lord, 2025.
		We had some technical problems, Colonel Mills, trying to get Colonel Mills back on again tomorrow, but we are on full watch on this situation in South Korea today.
		One of our strongest allies, remember the South Koreans, not only did they obviously fight shoulder to shoulder with us during the Korean War, and the Korean War is kind of, the way I look at it, is still an extension of World War II, of the Great Conflict.
		Because World War II did not end.
		By the signing of the Surrender Instrument in Tokyo Harbor, I think on the USS Missouri.
		He continued on, particularly since the State Department turned over Lao Bajing and the Chinese as corrupt and as bad as the Kuomintang was in Chiang Kai-shek.
		He was no beauty, right?
		But they turned him over basically to the Chinese Communist Party.
		General Marshall in that crowd, hoodwinked by the Chinese Communist Party, and we're still paying for that.
		And then Bush did it again after Tiananmen Square.
		Whole history of betrayals of one of our greatest allies, the Chinese people.
		Not the leadership, the Chinese people.
		That's right.
		Go get Birch Gold now.
		Understand it.
		Talk to Philip Patrick.
		We'll give you full access.
		Also, don't miss an opportunity.
		We can't have you have a problem with your title.
		If somebody's getting to your title today and either sell your house, which is maybe a low probability, but take out a second mortgage, the government's already given you a second mortgage.
		I think every household's got like a equivalent of $220,000, essentially a second because of the debt on your castle.
		You can't afford, so you're paying taxes or fees or sales taxes, whatever.
		You've got to unbury the government from that.
		In addition, You can't have it either a bad actor, cyber criminal, or even somebody you know.
		I mean, one of the things that Dominguez, Natalie Dominguez comes with these heartbreaking stories of, you know, maybe a lawyer, maybe a stepson or daughter, maybe a brother or sister, maybe a son or a daughter.
		You never know.
		But somebody getting that title, that title is a contract just like your contract, maybe even better than you got for Social Security.
		So today we need you at the Ramparts.
		We can't have you worried constantly about if something went wrong.
		Just go to hometidelock.com today.
		Check it out.
		Bannon.
		E.J. and Tony, the Chinese Communist Party is not stupid.
		They understand President Trump's a new sheriff in town.
		We're talking about tariffs.
		President Trump's talking about trade.
		All kind of very sophisticated things that Peter Navarro is working on.
		etc.
		Particularly do this at scale.
		He's talking about a greater America that may include Canada.
		He was talking about economic power yesterday with trade and tariffs in Canada.
		The Chinese, which have had their own problem, their big problem is that in the beginning of the year, they wiped off, I think, $7 trillion of market cap out of their companies because you start to see the tremors that their business model is not working, which is essentially state capitalism with communist dictatorial which is essentially state capitalism with communist dictatorial control, right?
		And the slave labor of the Lao Ba Jing is starting to get antsy because the model is not working out and And the overall model is to transfer that income from middle-class America to transfer it to the slave labor in China, hopefully build a middle class that would support the Chinese Communist Party.
		That has not worked out.
		They have had massive financial problems at the end of the year.
		And now there's this chart about the bond market.
		They're up to something.
		These are not dumb people.
		These are very cunning.
		The Chinese Communist Party, hey, to be around over 100 years and to have the number of murders that they've had and the butchery they've had, the couple of hundred million Chinese they've tortured to death, starved to death, murdered, killed, whether it's in collectivizations, in the Great Leap Forward, in the Cultural Revolution, that doesn't include...
		The almost half a billion, 400 million, Miles Groh's number is 450 million, murders of Chinese babies and the forced abortion.
		Eighty percent of those are little girls.
		The hungry ghost of China demand and accountability.
		But the Chinese Communist Party, anybody that's hung on that long and done what they've done to their people and still around, they fall into the category in the war room of tough hombres.
		And they are not sitting here welcoming Donald Trump and the anti-CCP element of which I am honored to head in the MAGA movement, coupled with the Chinese patriots that have been able to flee and get throughout the world.
		So E.J., tell me what's going on, because some of these charts that Kobayashi and the folks are putting up have got me quite nervous.
		And Scott Besson's got a hard enough time with $7 trillion he's got to refinance this year.
		Besides everything else that happens in the two reconciliations, because there's going to be two reconciliations, walk me through what you think, through the minds of the Chinese Communist Party, they're trying to accomplish, sir.
ej antoni ▲ ● ▼		Well, Steve, that's an absolutely great summation.
		And essentially what we're seeing right now are extraordinary measures being taken by the CCP, both in terms of fiscal as well as monetary so-called stimulus.
		In other words, the government over in China is spending the equivalent of trillions of U.S. dollars in order to try to prop up their failing economy.
		And it's failing for the exact reasons that you mentioned, Steve.
		They're trying to have capitalism, but only quasi-capitalism with really what is state overseeing or essentially almost like a kind of fascism where the government is trying to tell private actors everything they can and can't do in the private economy.
		It clearly doesn't work.
		It hasn't worked.
		And they've been surviving off of the wealth transfer that you just described, Steve, where they're essentially siphoning wealth off of the American middle class and giving it to the people in China.
		But that's all coming to an end now.
		And so they're just spending money they don't have.
		Their central bank is printing money in order to pay for all of that unfunded spending.
		And the result is that they are issuing tons and tons of new debt, except there's no one to buy that debt.
		So who's buying it?
		The Chinese central bank.
		And that's why yields on Chinese debt have absolutely collapsed.
		We actually saw the exact same thing here during COVID. Despite the fact that the government was, again, spending trillions of dollars it didn't have, yields on treasuries fell because the Fed essentially pledged to buy all of that debt.
		We also saw the exact same thing at the outbreak of World War I in Great Britain when they held, they pretended to hold, really, these bond rallies where they would get people to buy the debt of the British government.
		And that was supposed to be a sign of people's confidence in the British.
		And in the British government, the fact that the yields on that debt were falling, except it turned out that 100 years later, documents were finally released showing that the Bank of England was the chief purchaser of all of that government debt.
		In other words, there was no confidence in the pound.
		There was no confidence in the British government.
		And it was simply the Bank of England, again, buying all of that debt.
		So we're seeing the exact same thing today in China.
		That's why the yields on China The problem here is that this devaluation of the Chinese yuan,
		the renminbi, is going to give their exporters another Big advantage over American domestic producers because it's going to affect the relative value of those currencies.
		In other words, it will make it look like Chinese goods are even cheaper than they already are.
		So one of the things that the Chinese Communist Party aims to achieve right now in all of these monetary maneuvers is, again, to further rob the American people of our ability to compete with them on the world stage.
		And this is something that was going on back during the first Trump administration.
		The previous Treasury Secretary, Mnuchin, was supposed to be all over it.
		He only was for a little bit and then kind of gave up with policing the currency manipulations by the Chinese Communist Party.
		And I think Scott Besson is going to do a much better job than Steve Mnuchin did of really staying on top, again, of all the monetary manipulations out of the Chinese Communist Party.
		And we're going to have to not only stay on top of it, but we're going to have to punish these bad actors as they try to manipulate currency markets and give their exporters an unfair advantage over our domestic producers.
		This is about protecting American industry and protecting American jobs and therefore American people.
unidentified		Thank you.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		E.J., are they, or Dr. Antony?
		Are they doing this to front load and get ahead of, they know President Trump's going to come in with tariffs.
		They understand he's going to renegotiate these trade deals.
		Are they trying to do this to get ahead of it, to make sure that they're even, not even more competitive, but they're basically loading up the debt to undercut prices?
		So this is where their state capitalism comes in.
		Is this to get ahead of what they know President Trump with Navarro and Besant are going to go?
ej antoni ▲ ● ▼		Steve, that's a great way to put it.
		It's very similar to when retailers will jack up their prices right before Black Friday, and then they have a so-called Black Friday sale where the prices are now 25% off.
		Okay, but you just raised the prices 25% the week or the month before, so it's not really a sale at all.
		The Chinese Communist Party is trying to do the same thing here.
		So they're essentially going to make their exports even more artificial.
		So that when the currently proposed tariffs get actually put into place, it essentially just resets the chessboard so that they're hoping that things will be right back to where they were a month or two ago.
		Again, this is where I'm very, very hopeful that Trump, that Besant, that Navarro will be all over this.
		And one of the key ways I think that we can keep an eye on this, Steve, is something that Judy Shelton highlighted not that long ago.
		in a recent book of hers where she talked about The currency manipulations that countries like China are engaged in, and a good way to monitor that would be to look at how much gold does the dollar buy versus how much gold does the renminbi buy.
		And as you see the renminbi falling behind gold faster than the U.S. dollar, that is a good numeraire.
		In other words, it's a good objective standard by which you can measure both currencies to see which is devaluing faster.
		Now, that's not to say that the dollar has been great against gold.
		It clearly hasn't.
		That's one of the reasons why so many people, including myself, have been recommending that people buy gold as an inflation hedge.
		However, the Chinese renminbi has been even worse, and it's a sign that they are trying to devalue their currency even faster than we have devalued our currency here.
		And again, the aim there is to give themselves an unfair advantage in global markets.
		And so you can very easily then tie a kind of tariff or a non-tariff barrier to the relative gold price of different currencies.
		In other words, if you, Chinese Communist Party, are going to devalue your currency relative to gold, relative to the U.S. dollar, then we are going to impose a tax on everything you send to this country that makes up for the difference.
		If you're going to allow your currency to fall, to lose, let's say, half of its value, then we're going to put a hundred percent tax on that in order to, again, reset the playing field and try to put us on a level playing field.
		And again, all of this goes back to this idea that they are going to try to make up for the inherent failures within their system by siphoning wealth off of the American middle class.
		as you articulated, Steve.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		E.J., can you hang over one second?
		I just want to hold you for a few minutes after this break.
		Beggar thy neighbor in military might.
		Frank Gaffney and the team are assuring that they're having a bigger military build-up for dollars than Hitler had starting in the mid-1930s.
		And now you've got the beggar thy neighbor monetary policies and the trade policies.
		When this all fails, and it will fail for the Chinese Communist Party, their pivot to keep the folks at bay is to point to the foreign devils.
		And say, we've got to go to war.
		That's why what's happening in South Korea.
		So South Korea to the Third World War is bloody Kansas to the Civil War.
		Or Spain, 1935. It's happening, folks.
		This is happening.
		It's happening on our watch.
		This is what President Trump's walking into.
		A geopolitical, global geopolitical fiasco.
		Exacerbated by the clowns at Morning Joe and, of course, the illegitimate regime of Biden.
		This is much, much, much more dangerous than the late 1930s by five orders of magnitude.
		Short break.
unidentified		Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		As sure as the turning of the earth is going to get a lot uglier, folks.
		You know we've given you a heads up on everything, but this one is going to quite rapidly spin out control.
		Jace Medical is back with us.
		They're the guys, Dr. Sean and the team, that solve the supply chain problems with your basic core medicines.
		That problem has not, nothing's been done.
		Nothing.
		Still the same problem.
		Go to jacemedical.com today, slash Bannon, and make sure you go.
		Get on the site.
		Work it all the way through.
		You can't be caught short on this.
		Impossible.
		Can't do it.
		That's a way to lose a War Room Posse member.
		And we're going to need everybody at the Rampart.
		So JaceMedical.com, they explained the whole thing about the supply chain.
		Nothing's changed.
		I actually would argue it's gotten worse.
		So they have total control, and they will use that control.
		They're going to use everything they've got in their toolbox.
		JaceMedical.com slash Bannon.
		EJ. As sure as the turning of the earth, what they're doing financially can't be successful.
		Here's why.
		The system's totally corrupt, totally inefficient.
		They got slave labor that's tired of it.
		When they had the opportunity, they didn't build the consumer economy, although I thought that was a reach to begin with.
		When this collapses, and they're not the prime reserve currency.
		They try to do the thing with making the RMB in a basket, some sort of gold backing.
		They've done deals, output deals with the Saudis, with the Persians.
		For oil, they're doing the same thing as the Russians, but it's clearly not going to work.
		It just can't work because they're not the prime reserve currency.
		People don't have to take the yuan like they've got to take the dollar, right?
		So as this collapses, is this going to be a chain reaction?
		Is this just China, or do you see this virus throughout the world, this financial virus throughout the world?
ej antoni ▲ ● ▼		Steve, it very much is a virus and very much is throughout the world.
		You're absolutely right.
		And one of the really scary things is that we are essentially seeing countries try to move away from the dollar as a way to shield themselves from getting any kind of punishment, I guess, from the United States.
		Before Russia invaded any of the territories around its borders, what did it do?
		It got rid of all its holdings of U.S. debt and it also started buying gold.
		It has continued that gold-buying spree, and we're seeing the exact same thing out of the central bank of China.
		Now, China is also selling off its holdings of U.S. debt.
		They used to be the biggest purchaser and the biggest holder.
		They are now neither.
		In fact, now they're a net seller of U.S. debt.
		That's also going to create some difficulties in this year ahead for the Trump administration as they try to refinance so much existing debt.
		There are so many countries around the world selling that.
		Big.
		But still, the fact remains that you have all of these different bad actors around the world who are getting off the dollar and who are stockpiling gold.
		You mentioned Germany in the 1930s.
		They did something very, very similar.
		So it's not good, Steve.
		They're trying to isolate themselves from any kind of dollar-based repercussions.
		And again, as they continue to stockpile gold, I think that's a very bad...
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Hang on.
		This is what Biden did that we strongly recommend against.
		And I'm a huge believer in economic warfare.
		I think you can cut the defense budget if you're smart.
		But the economic warfare has got to go to the capital markets part of all that.
		What Biden did, remember, what the Russians did have in U.S. banks, it was dollar denominated, Yellen and the Biden regime, they confiscated.
		We didn't even do this to the Nazis.
		They confiscated it.
		So therefore, they're telling the Russians, hey, under no circumstances, they're going to have anything dollar denominated.
		This is one of the reasons you've got to go talk to Birch Gold right now.
		The world's central banks are buying gold.
		It's still at record rates.
		Don't take it from me.
		Talk to an expert.
		Go to Birch Gold today.
		Get Philip Patrick.
		Go online.
		Check it out.
		But that buying of gold by the central banks throughout the world should not be looked at as a total positive, folks.
		I understand it helps gold and helps your holdings, but hey, in the macro of it is, it shows you that key players from the SWIFT system, where we monitor everything, and can stop their transfer of financial assets, to the ability, the U.S. government for the first time, how do you think they did the last 50 billion for Ukraine?
		We essentially stole the Russian people's money.
		I hate to be so blunt about it, but we stole their money.
		That's not lost on them.
		These people throughout the world are smart and they're tough.
		This is why we are hurtling towards something.
		And here's why it's more dangerous than the 1930s.
		Because the scale of the weaponry.
		You have chemical.
		Look at fentanyl.
		You have chemical weapons.
		You have biological weapons.
		Look at COVID. You have nuclear weapons now spreading all over.
		You have armies.
		The lethality of these armies.
		Is an order of 10 of what it was in World War II? The 20th century is the most barbaric, the short 20th century, from August of 1914 to the fall of Tiananmen Square and the fall of the Berlin Wall in June to November of 1989. I call that the short 20th century.
		That was almost a continuous war.
		Either hot or cold, with the cold still having, the hot tap was still running.
		We killed, murdered, slaughtered, I don't know.
		500 million people in wars and in suppressions like the Chinese Communist Party, they will look at that as the second dark age.
		The barbarism of the 20th century is what comes out of how many people were murdered and slaughtered and died in concentration camps, were gassed or starved.
		Look at the Holocaust and what the Nazis did in Poland.
		Look at what happened in Ukraine.
		By Stalin and the Bolsheviks in the 1930s.
		You're basically living in Kansas and they starve you to death.
		Look what happened to the barbarity and the cannibalism that came up in the starving of people and the great leap forward, the collectivization of the farms.
		Horrible.
		Unimaginable.
		We are hurdling, as sure as night follows day, we're hurdling to that right now.
		This is the late 1930s.
		We have not learned any lessons.
		And this is when President Trump's stepping into you, and thank God in heaven, he's the one stepping into it.
		As much as that will be a curse for him to have to turn it around, think of who else you would have had.
		I mean, think about that for a second.
		This is why he's providential.
		Yes, he's quite imperfect.
		Yep, quite imperfect, as all of us are.
		But for this moment in time, The nation could not have a better leader, and the world cannot have a better leader.
		But EJ, I'm telling you, the numbers are flashing.
		It's going from a flashing yellow to a flashing red.
		Because the Chinese Communist Party, they've killed, they've murdered 200 million Chinese citizens and butchered another 400 million babies.
		It's almost a billion people, and Mao and these guys don't blink an eye.
		Deng Xiaoping, they don't blink an eye.
		Xi, they don't blink an eye.
		You take their blood pressure, then it wouldn't be up.
	There'd be resting blood pressure.
	Resting blood pressure.
	You think they're going to give this up?
	Because they understand if they give it up, they're gone.
	They're gone, and they're not going to be gone in a good way.
	Lao Bajing got a lot built up.
	You think the kid that gunned that guy down in cold blood, shot him in the back of point-blank range, you think they got rage?
	You see what's underneath the surface in China.
	Because they have real rage.
	The Cultural Revolution, the forced collectivizations, and the hunger, and the barbarity of the Chinese Communist Party, the most brutal dictatorship in world history, what they've done to these people.
	And to keep them, they're going to turn and say, the foreign devils brought this on us, and we've got to take Taiwan first, and we're going to take East Asia, we're starting South Korea.
	It's going to explode like you've never seen anything in your life.
	It's coming.
	Sure it's coming.
	Sure is the turning of the earth.
	E.J. and Tony, where do people get your social media?
ej antoni ▲ ● ▼		Best place to find me is on X. The handle there is at Real EJ Antonio.
		And Steve, real quick, one of the other things we're going to be keeping an eye out for is to see if the deep state here is going to try to do to Donald Trump and Scott Bessent what they did to Liz Truss over in the UK, where as soon as their economic policies were unveiled, they immediately caused disruptions in the gilt markets, what would be the treasury markets here.
		Don't underestimate the deep state ability to try to do that here, and that could also be part of what's going on behind.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, we're going to get into the bond market tomorrow.
		I'll talk to you tonight, and we'll come back to you.
		It's very, very, very concerning.
		Unlike Liz Truss, though, Besson and Trump will actually have a plan that the capital markets will understand.
		Now, if you start seeing anything there, you're going to know something's up.
		I 100% agree with you.
		The lords of easy money are not going to back off control of the earth.
		Just because we say, hey, here's the plan, and we want to exceed the plan.
		E.J. and Tony, we'll go to your social media.
		We'll go to your Twitter.
		It's incredible.
		Thank you, sir.
ej antoni ▲ ● ▼		Thank you, Steve.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so you've got the kinetic part of the Third World War.
		Trump will have to do that.
		We just talked about the financial.
		He's going to have to do that.
		On his spare time, he's got to deport, I don't know, 15 million people, you tell me, who don't want to be deported.
		Todd Benzman, ground zero for that.
		You've got these amazing articles coming up right now, and you're the guy that's been warning us about us for years.
		It's one of the reasons President Trump's in the White House is you're reporting, and CIS is reporting, particularly this audience, to empower them.
		You are saying, guys, I know we got the border, I know you got the Rio Grande Valley, you got South Texas, you got Arizona, but man, the centerpiece of this baby is going to be Chicago, Illinois.
		Why do you say that, sir?
todd bensman ▲ ● ▼		For one reason, Tom Homan went there a few weeks ago and was not welcomed.
		The mayor of Chicago basically stood his ground and said, we are not giving up any immigrants to you or ICE. We're going to bite your tooth and nail all the way through.
		And Homan's response was, hey, we're coming to Chicago on day one.
		We are going to take action to deportation.
		It looks like Chicago is kind of forming an epicenter, a center of conflict between the Trump administration and these uber-blue sanctuary cities that don't want to give up.
		Even their criminal aliens, which is something that's unbelievable.
		Like, what elected leader anywhere would want to inflict criminal aliens on their population?
		But they're planning to do that in Chicago.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Todd, hang on for one second.
		We're going to hold you through the break.
		Todd Benson from CIS, author of the leading books on this topic, Overrun.
		It's a magnificent piece and one of the great reporters out there.
		Chicago is the epicenter of the deportations, the sanctuary cities.
		That's where it's going to come to a head.
		Short break.
		break back in a moment.
		We're taking care of a small technical problem with Todd Benzman and Todd is also we're going to reboot that because I got to get to the bottom of We're two weeks away from this.
		The trigger being pulled on the EO's.
		The EO's being worked on right now.
		Office of Legal Counsel giving the fairness opinion.
		So this train's leaving the station, baby.
		They haven't done the two reconciliations, and they're not going to have the immigration border deportation legislation ready to go.
		I think by the time President finishes with the Senate today, because Thune and Graham are on our side and others, and he finishes with the House Freedom Caucus and others at Mar-a-Lago on Friday.
		Then we'll be in consensus.
		It's got to be two, and you've got to get out there.
		That being said, the executive orders are going.
		Holman and Miller are going to work, and Todd Benzman has nailed it.
		And people have got to focus.
		It's not going to be the Rio Grande Valley in South Texas.
		They're going to be big.
		But the centerpiece is going to be sanctuary cities, and the one they're going to take on is going to be Chicago.
		Mike Davis is breaking news.
		Mike, help me out here.
		I thought Merrick Garland and these guys were sworn.
		I thought they were all rule of law people, and we're all terrible, and we've got to go to prison, and we've got to do this.
		A federal judge, Cannon, came in and said, look, I just want to say, do a complete stand down on this Jack Smith report.
		This is just another way to smear Trump, this Jack Smith report.
		My phone's blowing up now.
		They're telling me that Merrick Garland has decided on his own to give it to the committee for a camera review.
		Can you explain to me what's going on and how could that possibly be legal, sir?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Jack Smith brought two bogus...
		Cases against President Trump.
		There is the case in D.C. with D.C. Obama Judge Tanya Shutkin, where Jack Smith charged President Trump for the non-crime of objecting to a presidential election, which is allowed by the Electoral Count Act of 1887 and the First Amendment.
		The second case that Jack Smith brought was down in Florida for the non-crime of a former president having his presidential records in the office of former president, which is allowed.
		Under the Presidential Records Act, Jack Smith charged Trump with espionage for that, right?
		And so the January 6 case in D.C. has been completely thrown out against President Trump, and he was the only defendant.
		Down in Florida, the case was thrown out against Trump because he's the president-elect, but there are two other co-defendants.
		And here's what they're trying to do with this special counsel report.
		Political drive-by shooting, a last-ditch effort by Merrick Garland and Joe Biden and their henchman, Jack Smith, to do this smear of President Trump with this one-sided report.
		If they issue this report, President Trump can't respond to it in a courtroom.
		He can't call witnesses.
		He can't present his own evidence.
		He can't confront their witnesses.
		It is a political drive-by shooting.
		And with the case in D.C., it looks like Jack Smith is going to release that report with the Chudkin case.
		And with the Florida case, Jack Smith, it looks like he says he's not going to release the report publicly because there are two other co-defendants.
		But he's going to let members of Congress, Merrick Garland and Jack Smith, are going to have members of Congress do what they call an in-camera review, which means a private review.
		And I'll tell you, for someone who's worked in Congress in both the House and the Senate, if you give members of Congress anything in in-camera review, it's going to leak out to the public immediately.
		This is bogus.
		This is unprecedented.
		And it's very interesting.
		You would think as a lawyer and as an officer of the court like Merrick Garland is, he would want to be very careful because not only does he have his duties in the Justice Department, including the Office of Professional Responsibility, he also has obligations to the bars to which He has admitted, and it is unethical for lawyers to put out one-sided reports like this when there aren't charges pending.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		But this is, we're asking these guys who are going to get it, and they're going to leak all the, they're going to leak all the, they're going to take the most stuff that Smith has slanted in the worst way, and they're going to leak that to the media.
		So you're just going to get the New York Times and MSNBC, they're going to have a mantra.
		The week before President Trump is inaugurated to try to smear President Trump.
		I mean, that's the purpose, right?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		That's the purpose.
		That's the purpose of Mershon in New York trying to sentence Trump on January 10th.
		That's the purpose of Merrick Garland trying to release this deranged Jack Smith's one-sided political drive-by shooting.
		And I would say to these guys, have fun now.
		Have fun.
		I hope you enjoy.
		You're fun, like petulant children throwing your peas against the wall.
		Because guess what?
		On January 20th at noon, President Trump's going to get inaugurated.
		And it's going to be the Trump 47 Justice Department.
		And listen, boys, we're going to go from you guys being the hunters to the Trump 47 Justice Department being the hunters.
		You're going to go from being the hunters to the hunted on January 20th at noon.
		Keep having fun.
		Keep throwing your peas on the wall because this is going to come back and bite you in the ass.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		The Mershon situation, President Trump, Kermit McFarland, lost at the appeals court.
		I guess he can go to the New York Supreme Court.
		Can he go to federal court?
		How do you stop Mershon from doing what the MSNBC is sitting there slobbering all over themselves to try to get President Trump a sentence here?
		How do you stop that?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		President Trump filed an emergency petition with the Supreme Court of the United States this morning.
		The Supreme Court gave Judge Mershon and Alvin Bragg these Soros puppets until I think it was 9 a.m.
		tomorrow to respond.
		This is on the Supreme Court's emergency docket.
		And this should be a nine-to-nothing decision if the Supreme Court has any integrity.
		Whatsoever, if they're not just three partisan hacks and six Republican weaklings, this should be a nine-to-nothing decision.
		The Supreme Court should stop this.
		Because guess what?
		But we don't live in a country where local, highly partisan prosecutors and judges can sentence a president-elect and throw him in prison potentially.
		Even though one where Sean says he's probably not going to do that, he left that as a possibility.
		We don't live in a third-world Marxist hellhole where this can happen.
		Because guess what?
		Even if Mershon does not throw Trump in prison this time, what's to say that it doesn't happen next time after this precedent is set that this local, conflicted, partisan, dangerous, destructive judge, corrupt judge, one Mershon or any other judge destructive judge, corrupt judge, one Mershon or any other judge can tell a president-elect, you have to come into a sentencing hearing 10 days before you're inaugurated on these bogus charges that were brought against you.
		And if you're not a good boy, if you're not a good president-elect, I'll throw you in prison.
		We don't live in a third-world Marxist hellhole.
		We don't live in a banana republic.
		I know that's where Juan Mershon came from, but that's not America.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		So just process-wise, I want to make sure the audience has a critical path here.
		President Trump filed today, Boris and the team.
		They've given him until 9 a.m.
		tomorrow for Tish James.
		The geniuses.
		At the New York, you know, Alvin Bragg and Tish James and company, right, to respond 9 a.m.
		Mershon, I think it's 10 a.m.
		on Friday morning, so tomorrow is Thursday.
		Will the Supreme Court put a stay on that while they review this, or is this a decision they can make?
		It seems to me this is a little complicated in the fact that you've got state law, all of that.
		Will they put a stay on this so Mershon's put on hold until they render a decision, or do you think this is one they just turn around and say, it ain't happening, Mershon?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		I think that the Supreme Court should order an administrative stay and tell him to stop all proceedings on this until this is resolved on the merits by the Supreme Court of the United States.
		It's very, very, very simple.
		Again, it should be nine to nothing.
		I don't expect the three partisan hens on the Supreme Court to go along with this.
		Let's just hope that Chief Justice and Justice Amy Coney Barrett and Justice Kavanaugh, let's just hope that they find and keep their backbones on this.
		This is a very simple ruling because think about the precedent that will be set here, that a local partisan prosecutor and judge Can sentence the president-elect 10 days before his inauguration for nine crimes, right?
		And put him in prison.
		So, do we want to set that precedent?
		Do we want Juan Mershon's Columbia, or whatever third world dump he came from, do we want that to be imported into America?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		By the way, I want to check his status anyway, and there's something fishy about his whole status.
		We'll leave that for another day.
		Mike Davis, besides all the fighting, and this is why Boris and the team are so important, folks, this is going to continue after President Trump's in office.
		Don't think these people, they will do anything, anything, to stop Trump and the Trump movement.
		But I want to go, I'm making an announcement, it's 6 o'clock today, Todd's going to be back because I need some time to go through with Todd of this Holman Miller in Chicago.
		But my question to you is, on the 20th we turn to action.
		And as you know, we're going to get into the weaponization and all the investigations.
		That's a whole side thing.
		But in this critical event in process of the deportation, mass deportation of 15 million illegal alien invaders, I know we've got to investigate how that happened and who was responsible.
		Just the physical process.
		Chicago has already come out and said, the mayor, Homan went there last week, and the mayor said, hey, guess what?
		I'm a sanctuary city.
		We're not, you don't have any say-so here.
		We're going to fight and stop you every step of the way.
		Mike Davis, on the execution and implementation of President Trump's major promise to the American people to rid the nation of the 15 million illegal alien invaders that Biden invited in here, where is this going to go in court?
		Because I imagine, if you look at the order of succession that we went through on Saturday, they came out.
		The order succession for the attorney general, the number two guy is, wait for it, the U.S. attorney in Arizona who's an open borders guy, right?
		So he's going to sit there and try to thwart from the Justice Department itself.
		Tell me how we're going to get around this madness that's going to take place on the afternoon of the 20th of January, sir.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		I think Tom Holman, who I think is a hero, has already made this very clear to these Democrat mayors and governors who go on TV and pretend like they're going to obstruct.
		President Trump's immigration policy and agenda, you're going to commit a federal crime if you do that.
		So this Chicago mayor is going to end up in federal prison if he does this, because it is illegal to aid and abet illegal immigration.
		It is illegal to obstruct the federal government in carrying out its statutory duties.
		To deport these illegal immigrants.
		There are very serious federal felonies on the books.
		In addition to that, there's conspiracy.
		If they're working with anyone else to carry out these felonies, I would say this.
		So it'd be a great way to get rid of these these these mayors and these Democrat hell holes is charge them with federal felonies for for aiding, abetting and obstructing and conspiring.
		So go ahead and do it.
		I would I would love to see that happen because I think Pam Bondi is a pretty tough woman.
		And I don't think she's going to put up with it.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Mike, can you hang on for a second?
		I want to talk about the situation in North Carolina at the Supreme Court.
		MSNBC has been a meltdown over it, and one of the reasons it's so vitally important.
		Folks, I know all the work that you do, and for the congressmen, the senators, and for the president, the state legislatures are vitally important, and these elections for judges, judges on the Supreme Court of these states, is vitally important.
		So much goes through them.
		So we're going to take a short commercial break.
		Birchgold.com.
		I think we've made the case for gold today.
		What you ought to find out is how it works for you.
		Go to birchgold.com, talk to Philip Patrick and the team, ask them, hey, Bannon's saying these central banks are buying it more than they've ever bought it.
		He'll confirm that, but he'll talk to you about how you can use it as a hedge.

		I need time to go through with Todd today.

		The Mariner's Blend.
		Hey, matey.
		Because I love black Navy coffee, and you can drink this black and not put cream and sugar into it.
		It's that.
		Tage Gill and the team have done an amazing job.
		Warpath.coffee.
		Go check it out today.
		Davis.
		You know, Jason Miller's not going in.
		Boris Epstein's not going in.
		Mike Davis is not going in.
		Steve Bannon's not going to go in.
		Liz Harrington's not going to go in.
		Dave Bossie's not going to go in.
		I could go on and on of people that are going to be on the outside supporting President Trump because he's going to need it because they're going to try to drop the anvil on him.
		He's got a great team inside.
		The White House is staffed up.
		You've got the Navarras of the world, the Susie Wiles over there putting together a great team.
		You've got the agencies.
		Mike, I know you're too humble to say it.
		You were the key in the first term of getting these judges through.
		You do murder boards better than anybody.
		I know you're working around the clock on the confirmations.
		Right now, we need Article 3. The reason Mike's standing on the outside and not going in as the viceroy is because of Article 3. I want people to go.
		Where do they go?
		How do they sign up?
		How do they participate?
		Because, folks, when we say these groups are standing on the outside, or these individuals, we're all going to have groups, the War Room Posse and others, that are assisting to drive the Trump agenda going forward.
		Because the fight now is going to get more and more intense and nastier and nastier.
		Mike Davis, where do folks go?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		Well, first of all, I want to say, where is my Warpath coffee?
		Or my Warpath whiskey?
		You want your Warpath coffee?
		I want my Warpath whiskey.
		Number two, I think that we're not going in, Steve.
		You just listed that cabal of people.
		I think Susie...
		Probably would get a restraining order if we tried to go in.
unidentified		I didn't need to say that.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		I love Susie, but she doesn't need that chaos in the White House.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		She does not need it.
		She does not need it.
		God bless her.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼		Thank God we're staying on the outside, Steve, and here's why.
		President Trump did not have the outside support team support structure that he needed the last time, and that is critical.
		That's why I started the Article 3 project, because I was the chief counsel for nominations on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and I saw during the Kavanaugh confirmation that there is a major void on the right people like you and I and others who have that insider experience but have an outsider mindset and who are fighting Irish.
		You're drinking coffee, I'm drinking whiskey, but we need that structure on the outside.
		So we have...
		I started the Article 3 Project.
		You can go to article3project.org.
		You can donate there.
		You can follow us on social media.
		The most important thing you can do is take action.
		Action, action, action.
		This is where we got put on the map during the Ketanji Brown-Jackson confirmation.
		When I came on here...
		It had the War Room Posse light up the Senate switchboard and call both of their home state senators.
		It melted down the Senate.
		And it shows you how effective we are with the Article III project, teaming up with the War Room Posse.
		We really moved the needle.
		We have moved the needle on President Trump's cabinet picks.
		Cash Patel and Pete Hegseth were dead on arrival.
		Everyone, including at the very top, thought they were dead on arrival.
		We sprung into action, and three days later, we went from dead on arrival to when can they start?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		Pete Hegseth was 45 minutes away from being removed, dropped, and somebody else coming in.
		And when people got focused on this, Pete Hegseth...
		I'm not saying he's going to glide through, but Pete Hexeth is going to be Secretary of Defense, and we need Pete Hexeth.
		I've got to bounce.
		I'm going to do North Carolina, maybe at 6. I'll track you down later to talk about this.
		It's too important.
		But what Mike said, remember, I started War of Impeachment.
		We didn't start it when I first left the White House.
		I didn't start it until September, October of 2019. Why?
		There was no outside group at the time that was really focused on President Trump and the impeachment issue.
		Mike Davis, thank you so much.
		Mike Lindell, you've been a warrior from the beginning.
		Really appreciate your prison ministry yesterday.
		I've heard nothing but rave reviews about it.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼		They gave me a great appreciation award yesterday.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		The radical attorney general is trying to shut you down, all your charities in Minnesota.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		So sell me a pillow and let me get some sheets from you, brother.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼		We got a bigger surprise, Steve.
		Yesterday with the Lindale Recovery Network was down in Texas, and we're working with all the prisons with MyPillow and the Lindale Recovery Network.
		And yes, Keith Ellison is attacking us.
		But one of the products we were coming out that was going to be supporting the Lindale Recovery Network, I've decided to offer it to the War Room Posse through MyPillow.
		This is the cross I wear.
		You guys have all asked.
		You've got the women's size here.
		It's reversible.
		You've got the mother of pearl look on the front and then the black on the back.
		And you've got the one that I wear.
		There it is, the MyCross.
		This is a War Room exclusive.
		I think I don't even know how many were made.
		100% made in the USA. I partnered with a company actually in Michigan.
		This has been going for a year.
		They're finally in.
		And I decided to put it on the War Room Posse today.
		You're going to save up to 30% with that promo code WARROOM. And you go to the website and just add it to your order.
		Go to the website.
		There you can find out all about the Micross.
		And then we have the flannel sheets.
		Once they're gone, they're gone.
		There's still every color left in the sizes.
		Queen size, 59.98.
		King size, 69.98.
		And then we have that clearance event that's still going on.
		That's in the upper right.
		So all these things going on.
		But you guys got to check out the crosses.
		This has probably been my most requested item over the last few years is the cross that I wear always.
		And so it kind of coincided with yesterday's event.
		And I decided to do it today for the war room.
		So, 800-873-1062.
		My operators that can tell you all about the crosses and get you the best deals in history on MyPillow.
		This helps us.
		We are under attack.
		Keith Ellison has come after my Lindell Recovery Network, which I spent all day yesterday in a prison in Texas.
		And by the way, everybody, MyPillow is now going to be...
		Putting pillows and donating them to certain prisons in Texas.
		A pilot program.
		Pillows, blankets, beds, you name it, Steve.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼		I've got to work with you to get you to Danbury, man.
		No pillows.
		Mike, thank you so much.
		Charlie Kirk is going to follow us back from Greenland, I believe.
		President Trump just put out a tweet about the new ambassador to Denmark.
		He says it's a national security necessity.
		For the United States of America to acquire Greenland.
		We'll deal with that at 5 to 6. POSO at 2. We're back 5 to 7 tonight.
