Yeah, we just hire a bunch of guys with chisels and hammers and then we just chisel Trump into it. | |
| I didn't say we oversee it. | ||
| No, we gotta get real guys. | ||
| We'll get real guys. | ||

With his construction hat on and goggles going, a little bit more often, thin his face out a little bit. | |
| I'm serious. | ||
| Listen, hang on, hang on. | ||
| For all the mocking and ridiculing I get from certain areas of the establishment and from the left, President Trump said today, we had it in the cold open, he says, hey, you know, a lot of people talk about me running for a fourth term. | ||
| You know, you've got to think about it. | ||
| He's open. | ||
| I'm not kidding. | ||
|

|
Take that shot again, Mount Rushmore. | |
| That needs to be. | ||
| His head needs to be added to Mount Rushmore. | ||
| I'm not joking, folks. | ||
| I'm serious. | ||
| Steve, I stole the minute of your show. | ||
| I apologize. | ||
| Always good talking to you. | ||
| I've got something special for you tomorrow. | ||
| Something special. | ||
| Best minute in all media. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| Appreciate you. | ||
| Okay, folks. | ||
| When we teed it up today, we were playing the track of the 14th Amendment. | ||
| Oh, the argument over in SCOTUS, which is right across the street from us. | ||
| Mike Davis, the viceroy, is going to join us. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this thing expanded to be a lot more than just talking about birthright citizenship. | ||
| So let's go ahead and play our cold open. | ||
| The viceroy is next in the war room. | ||
| Elena Kagan wondered why the administration would ever bring the merits of this case to the Supreme Court. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's assume that you lose in the lower courts pretty uniformly, as you have been losing on this issue, and that you never take this question to us. | |
| I mean, I noticed that you didn't take the substantive question to us. | ||
| You only took the nationwide injunction question to us. | ||
| I mean, why would you take the substantive question to us? | ||
| You're losing a bunch of cases. | ||
| This guy over here, this woman over here, you know, they'll have to be treated as citizens, but nobody else will. | ||
| Why would you ever take this case to us? | ||
| Well, in this particular case, we have deliberately not presented the merits to this court on the question of the scope of remedies, because, of course, that makes it a clean vehicle where the court doesn't have to look at... | ||
| Yes, you're ignoring the import of my question. | ||
| I'm suggesting that in a case in which the government is losing constantly, There's nobody else who's going to appeal. | ||
| They're winning. | ||
| It's up to you to decide whether to take this case to us. | ||
| If I were in your shoes, there is no way I'd approach the Supreme Court with this case. | ||
| Joining us now, NBC News senior legal correspondent Laura Jarrett. | ||
| So, Laura, try to help... | ||
| Understand, us understand what exactly was being argued there. | ||
| I set it up, but I think you can probably bring it to us in simpler terms. | ||
| No, no, you did just great, Katie. | ||
| I think there's a couple things going on here. | ||
| One, there is a fundamental clash going on right now, and not just on birthright citizenship, but just generally between the federal courts and this administration. | ||
| And you saw it a little bit today as Justice Barrett is pressing the Solicitor General about, are you going to follow federal court orders? | ||
| And he's saying things like, generally. | ||
| That's what's going on on the one hand. | ||
| That ongoing tension, as we've seen the president criticizing judges for blocking his initiatives and his policies. | ||
| Then there's the question of really birthright citizenship. | ||
| And the idea that you could strip away a constitutionally guaranteed right was once seen as a fringe opinion, but now it's being, at least by this administration, embraced as something legitimate. | ||
| And what Justice Kagan was saying there in the bite that you're playing is, you're not bringing it to us because you know you're going to lose. | ||
| And so Kagan is saying, you're trying to go on the edges. | ||
| Here, as it relates to nationwide injunctions and limiting the scope of the orders, because on the merits of birthright citizenship, it was sort of taken for granted for a long time that that was guaranteed by the Constitution and that you're unlikely to win in front of the Supreme Court. | ||
| And so instead, you'd rather have these fights in the lower courts. | ||
| And if it means that a judge in New York says, of course, birthright citizenship is guaranteed by the Constitution, but a judge in Texas says, oh, no, it's not, then you're living in sort of this patchwork universe. | ||
| And that's where sort of the challengers to this EO have, I think, had some traction, Katie, which is to say you'd actually have a situation in which there are rights guaranteed under the Constitution in New York, but not in Texas. | ||
| What do you sort of say to make it clear that this wasn't just about birthright citizenship? | ||
| It really wasn't about birthright citizenship. | ||
| It was about whether a judge's ruling, if Trump doesn't like it, actually applies. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, just explain what this was. | |
| This is such a good example for people to try and understand how procedure affects substantive rights. | ||
| And that's why everyone kept saying, let's assume that whatever is a substance is unconstitutional. | ||
| Here, birthright citizenship, the Sotomayor example was about guns. | ||
| And the question is, how do you get people to be able to vindicate that so that their rights aren't violated? | ||
| And that is where the sort of whack-a-mole idea, or catch me if you can, is so much at stake, because the court could say, you have to bring individual cases all around the country, and that means each person has to do that. | ||
| And so rights can be violated against all sorts of people, and only if you happen to have a lawyer and you happen to get there to court in time. | ||
| This is not hypothetical. | ||
| And here's the thing I'd say for people who are saying, give me a concrete example. | ||
| We are seeing it in the immigration front every single day. | ||
| The Supreme Court said that you have to bring this by habeas. | ||
| Some people are like, I don't know what that is. | ||
| What does it mean? | ||
| It means you have to bring these individual cases. | ||
| And what is happening? | ||
| You have a patchwork of decisions. | ||
| You have people having to race around the country. | ||
| And what is the government doing? | ||
| They are literally playing whack-a-mole. | ||
| They're playing a shell game with people's lives. | ||
| They move people around to jurisdictions where there's not yet a court case that says you can't do this so they can export people or really extract them from this country. | ||
| So we're seeing That confluence of procedure affect people's substantive rights, and that's really being what's at the heart of what's happening here today, but in a different context of birthright citizenship. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| 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 try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big lie? | ||

War Room. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| In the year of our Lord, 2025, the Vice Rory joins us. | ||
| Mike, this thing quickly metastasized to really a discussion far beyond just birthright citizenship. | ||
| Can you walk us through what exactly happened today? | ||
| And is Weissman? | ||
| Your favorite guy, is he right or is he wrong, sir? | ||
| Well, it was a bit of a muddled mess today at the Supreme Court. | ||
| Look, it is very clear under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution that this... | ||
| The birthright citizenship provision of the 14th Amendment was enacted to overturn the Dred Scott decision, to make sure that the children of freed slaves were citizens of the United States and they had the rights of citizens of the United States. | ||
| That's what the intent of the birthright citizenship provision of the 14th Amendment was. | ||
| That was expanded by the Supreme Court. | ||
| In the Chinese exclusion case, that was expanded to include lawful permanent residents of the United States. | ||
| The children of lawful permanent residents of the United States also have birthright citizenship under the Chinese exclusion case of the United States. | ||
| But foreign ambassadors' children do not have birthright citizenship invading armies. | ||
| Kids do not have birthright citizenship. | ||
| People don't realize this, but even American Indians did not have birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. | ||
| Congress had to pass a statute to give American Indians birthright citizenship because the Supreme Court said that they don't have it under the 14th Amendment. | ||
| So ask this question. | ||
| If American Indians... | ||
| Didn't have birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment. | ||
| How the hell do illegal aliens kids have birthright citizenship? | ||
| They don't. | ||
| They don't have allegiance to the United States, which is a critical component of the 14th Amendment's birthright citizenship provision. | ||
| You have to show allegiance to the United States. | ||
| If you are a lawful permanent residence kid, you have allegiance to the United States. | ||
| If you are an illegal aliens kid, if you're a Trendy Aragua or MS-13 baby, your parents do not have allegiance to the United States and therefore you should not have birthright citizenship. | ||
| I don't know if the Supreme Court is even going to get to the merits. | ||
| Of that question, they're going to decide the issue of nationwide injunctions. | ||
| Can one of these 680 district court judges around the country issue a nationwide injunction, effectively legislation by a judge, unconstitutional legislation by a judge? | ||
| And stymie the will of American voters by putting a nationwide injunction on the duly elected president of the United States. | ||
| It's unclear after today's courtroom proceedings where the Supreme Court is going to land on either of those issues. | ||
| But I want to, for the non-lawyers, myself included, you know, I think Slaughter's the Solicitor General. | ||
| Was he caught? | ||
| It looked like... | ||
| I don't know, to the untrained eye, like a trap set by our favorite Amy Comey Barrett, and was it Kagan, that went down this road of even not talking about birthright citizenship, but was going down this issue about, you know, was Trump going to follow court orders? | ||
| Almost teeing up this constitutional crisis we've talked about and bringing it up to the court. | ||
| Well, John Sauer is the Solicitor General of the United States, and he's a friend of mine. | ||
| He's a very effective advocate. | ||
| He's the one who won the presidential immunity case for President Trump, which ended this lawfare against President Trump and helped President Trump get back. | ||
| He is a brilliant attorney, a brilliant advocate, a former Supreme Court clerk for Justice Alito. | ||
| To the extent that any of these justices were playing political games, I think John Sauer did as well as anyone could do to advocate on behalf of the president's positions and not falling into those traps. | ||
| Yeah, I'm not saying, I'm not opining to his job. | ||
| I thought he actually did a good job. | ||
| But it seemed like some of the justices, particularly our favorite ACB and a couple of the liberals, were talking about a totally separate set of issues than the issue that was supposed to be before them, sir. | ||
| Yeah, that's a very good question, Steve. | ||
| And you have to ask yourself why the ladies of the court were going down that path. | ||
| I mean, those questions were not before the court today. | ||
| They weren't relevant to those cases, and so it's a very good question. | ||
| It sounds like when they do things like that, they become political. | ||
| Is this teeing up in your mind that we're hurtling towards this? | ||
| Because she asked point blank, did she not, ACB? | ||
| Is the Trump administration going to follow the court's decisions? | ||
| So she's kind of foreshadowing where they want to go on this? | ||
| Well, I mean, I would say to Professor Barrett that, yes, the president's going to follow Supreme Court's decisions like he always has. | ||
| I would also say this, if the Supreme Court's decisions are lawless... | ||
| And dangerous. | ||
| They're going to lose. | ||
| The Supreme Court is going to lose the confidence of the American people. | ||
| The Supreme Court is going to lose its legitimacy with a broad swath of the American people. | ||
| And so maybe Professor Amy Coney Barrett should be more concerned about the lawless and dangerous rulings by the Supreme Court that are destroying the court's rulings rather than whether the president's going to follow those rulings, which he has done every time. | ||
| Mike Davis, where do people go to get you on social media and Article 3? | ||

Mr. Speaker, midnight tonight is the deadline to pass House bills. | |
| Is that correct? | ||
| Yes, on second reading. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We gaveled in on, I'm sorry, parliamentary inquiry. | ||
| State chair inquiry. | ||
| We gaveled in on January 14th. | ||
| Why did we not vote on a single bill until April 1st? | ||
| That is not a proper parliamentary inquiry. | ||
| Mr. Speaker. | ||
| Mr. Harrison, for what purpose? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Parliamentary inquiry. | |
| State chair inquiry. | ||
| There are hundreds of bills on today's calendar. | ||
| Do any of them eliminate or even greatly reduce property taxes? | ||
| That is not a proper parliamentary inquiry. | ||
| Mr. Speaker. | ||
| Mr. Harrison, for what purpose? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Parliamentary inquiry. | |
| State chair inquiry. | ||
| Have we had a single bill brought to the floor of this House that eliminates property taxes or even allows us to debate reducing or eliminating property taxes? | ||
| Mr. Harrison, that is not a proper parliamentary inquiry. | ||
| Mr. Speaker. | ||
| Mr. Harrison, for what purpose? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Parliamentary inquiry. | |
| State your inquiry. | ||
| I counted 165 Democrat bills on today's calendar. | ||
| Why have you prioritized hundreds of bills over the eight legislative priorities of the Republican Party of Texas? | ||
| Mr. Harrison, it's not a proper parliamentary inquiry. | ||
| With all due respect, those may be the most appropriate questions ever asked from this microphone all session. | ||
| Mr. Harrison, for what purpose? | ||
| I guess no purpose. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| This situation down there where... | ||
| Soros put in three, $400 million to turn Texas blue. | ||
| It got slightly purple. | ||
| And then MAGA took over. | ||
| The grassroots down in Texas put the state on its shoulders. | ||
| Trump won by 14 points. | ||
| 14 points. | ||
| Ted Cruz won by nine. | ||
| I think a couple of those times that Ted Cruz had those tight races. | ||
| Won by nine points. | ||
| Won the legislature. | ||
| All of it. | ||
| Think about this for a second. | ||
| Texas is the railhead of the MAGA movement. | ||
| And this thing in the House, and we got involved in it a couple of years ago with the Paxton impeachment. | ||
| That would be the same Paxton that's up on these polls on Cornyn. | ||
| I don't know, 15, 16, 20 points more in some polls. | ||
| A guy's been in the U.S. Senate and a power broker in the Senate for decades. | ||
| And that speaker right there, he's a Republican. | ||
| They've turned over the House to Democrats. | ||
| It's not only not acceptable, it's got to be, we have to set things right down there. | ||
| So we're working with people and we will have more about that. | ||
| But for folks in Texas, good Lord, all the hard work you've done to save that state, and this is what you get? | ||
| Part of this is you just got to understand it. | ||
| This big corporate money starts coming in these states. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| They're anti-democratic. | ||
| They don't care what the people have to say. | ||
| They don't care how many elections you win. | ||
| This is all about you've won. | ||
| That's not even close. | ||
| It's MAGA. | ||
| It's conservative Republican. | ||
| That's not even debated. | ||
| They're doing this through other non-democratic measures. | ||
| Because elections don't matter to these people. | ||
| That's got to be taken on head-on. | ||
| Also, where elections, where you see this populist nationalist sovereignty movement coming across the world, whether it's Bolsonaro in court down in Brazil, they're going to throw him in prison, try to kill him in prison, on made-up charges of the election down there. | ||
| You've got Le Pen, got four years in prison. | ||
| Now, they say they're not going to do it, and they're going to, you know, she may be able to run, but the courts are intruding. | ||
| They do a report on Alternative for Deutschland now that it leads in all the polls, and the government couldn't even vote itself in the other day. | ||
| They had to make up a rule to kind of have two votes in one day. | ||
| Alternative for Deutschland leads there, and what are they doing? | ||
| They put a report out, uh, you're too, you know, extreme. | ||
| I think we've got to shut you down. | ||
| Same thing happened in Romania. | ||
| Guy won, and EU kind of came and said, no, upon further review, you didn't win. | ||
| Let's have a new election. | ||
| Well, the guys replacing my kid could win bigger than he is. | ||
| George Simeon joins us. | ||
| George, the voting's this Sunday. | ||
| We want to have you or some people. | ||
| We're going to actually have some people from Romania on tomorrow and Saturday we're working with right now. | ||
| Where do we stand in the run-up to the final and to the second round? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hi, Steve. | |
| Hello to all of our MAGA friends. | ||
| We are winning big time in Romania in the second round. | ||
| It will be a landslide. | ||
| I'm currently in Paris, met with the Romanians here, was earlier today in Brussels, also met with the Romanian diaspora. | ||
| There yesterday met with Matteo Salvini and Meloni, with our Romanians living in Italy. | ||
| On Tuesday I was supporting the Polish candidate because Sunday we have elections also in Poland for the president. | ||
| So it should be a landslide if they don't do something with the software, if they don't steal two million ballots. | ||
| It will be very hard because the difference is big. | ||
| So we presume that they will not steal. | ||
| And hopefully we'll return to democracy, to the constitutional order. | ||
| Things are shaping up good. | ||
| We had Marine Le Pen and all the leaders you mentioned having support messages. | ||
| It is for the first time we are collaborating with all the conservatives, sovereignists, patriots in Europe. | ||
| Viktor Orban also had a message which is really great for us considering the historical adversities between Romanians and Hungarians. | ||
| So if all goes well, by one month's time we will put Colleen Georgescu, who won the first elections, back in the leadership of Romania and we will return to the voice of the people. | ||
| All they are trying to do through mainstream media, all the The Romanian citizens remain in our support. | ||
| They understand that it is not possible for a normal country, for a civilized country to annul elections. | ||
| So, we are now thinking what more can they invent to stop the will of the people. | ||
| They threw Kalin out. | ||
| He won the first round with 22% and I won last Sunday with 41%. | ||
| The first round. | ||
| We are expecting a big difference like 60 to 40% this Sunday when the votes are counted because in the exit poll they will say 50-50. | ||
| Do you feel confident that you're their worst nightmare? | ||
| Because the first candidate won and they stole it and they figured, hey, by smearing... | ||
| The sovereignty movement, they would crush you guys. | ||
| Now you're going to come back and win bigger than ever. | ||
| So, you know, I want to run through the tape hard in here. | ||
| That's why we're covering it so closely. | ||
| It's essential you win for the sovereignty movement throughout the world. | ||
| Aren't you concerned that the EU and the other gangsters from Davos will do something to steal this from you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They can try, but the difference is quite big. | |
| I'm actually in Paris. | ||
| I went to mainstream media television right now, but right-wing media, CNews. | ||
| I spoke the truth about Emmanuel Macron, that he's a dictator, that he interfered with our elections, and that I will tell the truth to his face, that his ambassador cannot interfere with the domestic elections in Romania. | ||
| So the solution is not to be frightened. | ||
| The solution is to fight back. | ||
| The solution is to organize. | ||
| The solution is to have solidarity. | ||
| And we're having plenty of this. | ||
| If you are not frightened, because this is what they tried to do between the two rounds. | ||
| We started, instead of celebrating the victory, we started with the attack of the Romanian currency, like in Solos style, when he attacked, for example, the British pound. | ||
| In the early 90s, now they attacked through JP Morgan the Romanian Leo and said it is because of me, because I won with such a big difference in front of the establishment candidates. | ||
| Now they will try to do something on the stock markets, they will try to threaten us like we will not get EU funds in the future. | ||
| But they cannot kick us out from the European Union. | ||
| We are here to stay. | ||
| So we put our trust in the Almighty God. | ||
| We put our trust in a miracle that happened in Romania, that the Romanian people are not manipulated anymore through the TV channels, through mainstream media, are not manipulated through the fake news that are spreading about us. | ||
| They don't know really what can they say about us, because I'm not corrupt. | ||
| They really invented... | ||
| They tried to make a gay porn movie with me last week. | ||
| They hired a guy that resembled me. | ||
| But people from the institutions and people from the secret services are starting to give us info. | ||
| George, just hang on for one second. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to come back. | ||
| George Simeon in Paris. | ||
| The Romanian election on Sunday. | ||
| back in a moment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| We weren't going to let George go because we've got Philip Patrick coming. | ||
| Exploding information on Capitol Hill about the big, beautiful bill coming out of the budget committee. | ||
| I'm going to get to Philip in a moment. | ||
| But when George said, hey, they're doing fake gay porn tapes of him. | ||
| So what is going on is the deep state, what are they doing, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
So they were trying how they can impress our conservative audience, our conservative voters. | |
| They should invent something about me. | ||
| So they hired an actor that looked like me, and they paid him to film gay porn. | ||
| Maybe they enjoyed it, but not my... | ||
| Was Zelensky, by the way, was Zelensky free and taking gigs again? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm sure they all make parties with Emmanuel Macron and the rest of the weird people. | |
| I asked for this. | ||
| I started it. | ||
| I started. | ||
| Keep going. | ||
| Keep going. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's not my style. | |
| So we had the information. | ||
| We had some people filming what they were filming. | ||
| So not working with the manipulation. | ||
| We're quite desperate. | ||
| I'm now protected by the Secret Service in Romania in order nothing to happen with me because we can think they could do everything in their power to stop also this time the elections. | ||
| We will fight. | ||
| We will fight. | ||
| We don't surrender. | ||
| Poland, Polish elections come next. | ||
| They have the first round Sunday, then on the first June, the second round. | ||
| I went there. | ||
| I am supporting Karol Nawrotzki, the conservative candidate. | ||
| People are behind him. | ||
| I had a speech in Lower Silesia, in Poland, and after I'm elected president, I will go for one week to campaign with Karol, because it's important to have two important... | ||
| Pro-NATO, pro-Trump presidents on the eastern flank. | ||
| Sovereignists. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We're going to actually have... | ||
| They gun-decked this. | ||
| They had a conference, this tech conference, all these business leaders. | ||
| They brought all the American lefties there. | ||
| Obama for a million bucks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think it was today or yesterday. | |
| Anyway, we're going to have Pasovic expose all that on tomorrow morning's show. | ||
| George is going to join us again tomorrow night after his debate with his opponent. | ||
| George, your social media, sir, where do people follow you? | ||
| Between now and the time you come back on the show tomorrow. | ||

| On X and on Facebook and on TikTok by 6 million, 7 million viewers. | ||
| Each day in the campaign we have like 100 million impressions. | ||
| Things are going good. | ||
| It's the voice of the people. | ||
| We don't really need to campaign because the citizens, the normal Romanians, are making the campaign instead of us. | ||
| Fight on, sir. | ||
| You're one of the leading sovereignists in Europe. | ||
| We look forward to having you back on tomorrow. | ||

It's sick. | |
| These are sick people trying to stop. | ||
| The same people trying to put President Trump in prison. | ||
| The same people trying to put Bolsonaro in prison. | ||
| Do we have a clip to open with Philip Patrick? | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| The reason we don't have any audio is that it's all coming out on tweets today. | ||
| The budget committee's got to kind of pass the budget part of the big, beautiful bill, because remember, it kind of comes together in all these pieces. | ||
| I think three votes, it wouldn't happen. | ||
| They've got three no's I hear already in the committee. | ||
| They had a conference, I think. | ||
| This afternoon, and that's turned into a fracas. | ||
| Philip Patrick, this was kind of inevitable, was it not, sir? | ||
| Yeah, it was, but still surprising, right? | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| There's always a problem. | ||
| We've got three Republican hardliners. | ||
| I think it's Ralph Norman, Josh Breachan, and Chip Roy. | ||
| And they're saying that the problem, the reason that they're not going to vote for it, is a lack of... | ||
| Estimates from the CBO for specific parts of the bill, particularly for the Medicaid overhaul, estimates for the Energy and Commerce Committee's portion of the bill, for example, won't be available until early next week. | ||
| But, you know, this isn't a reason to stop the bill, right? | ||
| The GOP leadership is rightly working to advance the legislation because this was President Trump's agenda. | ||
| Right? | ||
| The problem is, as you mentioned, we've got a narrow Republican majority in the House, so even three dissenting votes is going to cause a big problem for the bill. | ||
| But it is important to get this through, right? | ||
| This has to happen before Congress adjourns. | ||
| For the last four years, the GOP have been capitulating time after time after time, and now we have a bill that makes necessary changes. | ||
| All of a sudden, these guys are getting cold feet. | ||
| Like you said, it's not surprising, but it's absolutely absurd. | ||
| President Trump ran his campaign on this platform, and he got elected. | ||
| And it's because it's what the American people want, right? | ||
| It's impossible to understand how Congress always found the money for Biden's priorities for years and years and years, $8 trillion and more. | ||
| And now, all of a sudden... | ||
| They can't do anything without CBO estimates. | ||
| It's absolute nonsense, Steve. | ||
| But the 10-year treasuries going up, in your mind, are you concerned? | ||
| One of the reasons Norman and Roy and these other guys, and Arrington's kind of a budget hawk, they're sitting there going, this thing just doesn't have enough cuts. | ||
| When you look at some of the gimmicks on the tax side that are not permanent... | ||
| You could be driving this off a cliff. | ||
| Are you concerned with that? | ||
| I mean, are you more concerned in getting something passed or making sure that we don't, like Senator Johnson saying, Hawley saying, you're on a glide slope indicator to $60 trillion in 10 years. | ||
| $60 trillion in debt in 10 years. | ||
| Does that concern you less than just, let's get this passed, get this through? | ||
| Listen, we have to get this passed. | ||
| This was President Trump's mandate. | ||
| This is what the American people want. | ||
| What he was voted in for. | ||
| So we have to get this passed. | ||
| Ultimately, tax cuts are going to help him grow the economy longer term. | ||
| Am I concerned about a national debt that's increasing? | ||
| Absolutely, yes. | ||
| But this bill mandated significant spending cuts, $900 billion over the next decade. | ||
| Is it enough to close the gap? | ||
| No. | ||
| But it's a step in the right direction. | ||
| We've got to let these guys work. | ||
| To get something done. | ||
| What's the alternative? | ||
| We do nothing. | ||
| We push the can further down the road. | ||
| That isn't an alternative either. | ||
| So longer term, we're going to have to look at curbing spending. | ||
| I think tariff revenues will be important. | ||
| I mean, Doge, if they can get anything done, will be important. | ||
| But yeah, I think short term, we've got to get this bill through because the alternative is even worse. | ||
| Even worse. | ||
| How do you think this is going to affect with... | ||
| You have this issue with the big, beautiful bill, and particularly on the spending side. | ||
| You've then got the real reset by the BRICS nations, and you saw how Xi and Putin were hanging out in Moscow. | ||
| Then you've got the debt ceiling itself, which right now, my math shows, the $4 trillion increase in the debt ceiling will blow through that before the duration period of after the midterm elections. | ||
| I think we'll do it actually in the summer of 26. Those three events, how do you think that's going to impact your thinking about gold and precious metals? | ||
| Listen, I am bullish on gold. | ||
| JP Morgan came out with a potential prediction for gold at $6,000 over the next few years, depending on what happens with trade wars. | ||
| So I'm certainly bullish on gold. | ||
| Look, the bricks we have to keep an eye on. | ||
| It's gathering steam. | ||
| It was a... | ||
| It's a frightening thing to see Chinese, North Korean and Russian troops marching in unison. | ||
| So they're clearly sticking together. | ||
| The BRICS are not a natural alliance, but they're an alliance through desire or through need at the moment. | ||
| So I think that will continue to gather steam. | ||
| As I've said the whole time, longer term, we're going to have to close that gap. | ||
| We're going to have to kill the deficit. | ||
| Because if we don't, if debt continues to amass, as you say, to the 60%. | ||
| There's nothing President Trump or anyone else can do. | ||
| We will look like a bad investment to the rest of the world, and they will pull away. | ||
| But look, I'm encouraged. | ||
| I'm encouraged through the tariff negotiations. | ||
| I think President Trump short-term got us a good deal. | ||
| I'm encouraged by the trade deal with the United Kingdom designed to try and isolate China on the international stage. | ||
| We'll have to see how this plays out, honestly. | ||
| But I'm getting more encouraged on the tariff side. | ||
| The debt side of things, I'm not encouraged. | ||
| But I think it's a case of watch this space and see what these guys can do. | ||
| We just came out with a seventh free installment on End of the Dollar Empire called The Rio Reset that tees people up. | ||
| And every other day, we're doing The Road to Rio, which we're doing today. | ||
| Why should people read, particularly people who are up to speed, I understand the debt, I understand the deficit. | ||
| What is it about? | ||
| This seventh free installment that is important for people to read about the Rio Reset. | ||
| Look, I think, and this is the premise of your show, right? | ||
| The more informed people are, the more they can take action. | ||
| And what's happening in Rio, look, we're not going to see an announcement on July 8th that, you know, the world's going to move away from the dollar. | ||
| But what we are seeing is steps and steps and steps in direction. | ||
| And like I said... | ||
| The more informed people are, it allows them to plan. | ||
| Look, it's not a case of if the bricks start to move away from the dollar. | ||
| They are doing it today. | ||
| They have the infrastructure. | ||
| They have the institutions. | ||
| They have everything they need to start transacting away from U.S. dollars. | ||
| People have to realize how privileged a position it is to be global reserve currency. | ||
| Any sort of longer-term loss of that status, it affects every individual living in the United States. | ||
| It affects our day-to-day quality of life. | ||
| Like you always say, stay informed. | ||
| It drives action, and that's why it's so important. | ||
| Know what's happening. | ||
| It allows you to prepare. | ||

| Understand that you go a long way to understanding and achieving your financial freedom and independence. | ||
| I think there's a firestorm over the Capitol Hill. | ||
| We kind of predicted it because there's a lot of conflicting... | ||
| Ideas, as you heard Terry Schilling, there's still a lot of stuff, a lot of woke still in this bill, a lot of things still being financed. | ||
| We had Hawley on this morning, Johnson on yesterday. | ||
| A lot of very concerned people are saying, hey, I think we're maybe cutting one area too much and we're not thinking about doing enough in another. | ||
| This whole thing of the work requirements of Medicaid, it doesn't start too many years. | ||
| There's all kind of contentious issues. | ||
| The big contentious issues, have we done enough cuts? | ||
| Look, talk about the doge cuts. | ||
| The codification of the doge cuts, remember, are going to come through rescission. | ||
| And I don't think Russ has put forward a decision bill because he's been told now by people on the Hill that it can't pass. | ||
| This is separate or even inside of a big, beautiful bill or separate. | ||
| Couldn't pass a majority. | ||

Spread the word! | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, this is why you want to get the leader reset, but he's got more information. | ||
| So one thing to do is take care of your phone. | ||
| Text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, that would be me, 989898. | ||
| You get the free guide for investing in gold and precious metals in the age of Trump. | ||
| We're going to put him on Mount Rushmore, so it's the age, no longer the era, it's the age of Trump. | ||
| But this booklet will open your eyes to many things. | ||
| Get it. | ||
| It's totally free. | ||
| And then you can get to Philip Patrick and the team. | ||
| Start banging them and asking them questions. | ||
| Ben Berquam. | ||
| You've been undercover for a while. | ||
| Where are you, what are you up to, and what's going on, sir? | ||
| Hey, Steve. | ||
| Great to be back with you. | ||
| By the way, I have my MyPillow. | ||
| I know you're going to be talking to Mike in just a minute. | ||
| We need MyPillows in this facility, although they'd be too nice. | ||
| We've been touring with Ice Houston for the last couple days. | ||
| We were doing a ride-along with them. | ||
| We just got the first exclusive live shots from inside this Montgomery County Ice facility. | ||
| It holds 1,400 illegals. | ||
| It has around 1,100 in there right now. | ||
| 60% of those are... | ||
| They're criminal beyond just being illegal criminals. | ||
| They're criminals beyond that. | ||
| Many of them gang members and the rest of it. | ||
| Wait till you see the footage. | ||
| But this is just one of four major facilities here, Steve. | ||
| And as the left, we saw the nonsense last week in New Jersey as they're going and trying to break the walls down. | ||
| I got to be honest with you, Steve. | ||
| These guys are saying they're being mistreated. | ||
| They're being treated better than you or I in most cases. | ||
| Their medical treatment here, they get seen within 24 hours. | ||
| They've got a massive soccer field out in the back. | ||
| Unlike what AOC is talking about where they say they're drinking out of toilets, they're treated too well. | ||
| You know, we had yawn on about the colony, is that the Texas officials are not even working with Homan. | ||
| To get the situation in the colony down in Houston under control. | ||
| Why are these people even here? | ||
| Why are they not being put on a plane and getting the hell and getting them back to their country of origin, sir? | ||
| Well, they are. | ||
| They're doing it as quick as they can. | ||
| Again, we were with the ICE field office director, Brett Bradford, and they're getting them out as quick as they can, sometimes the same day. | ||
| So if they've got a final order of removal and they're from Mexico, they'll get them out here, they'll put them on a bus, and they'll ship them out the same day. | ||
| A lot of countries, though, unfortunately, don't have diplomatic relations with America. | ||
| In some of those countries, it takes a little bit longer. | ||
| And also, you've got the activist judges. | ||
| So if they don't have final orders of removal, they're still having to go through the same process, going through the attorneys. | ||
| The activist judges, all of this nonsense. | ||
| So when you talk about things that have to get done, that's part of it. | ||
| Now, talking to Bradford, he said the working relationship they have with the different agencies is what's allowing them to do it. | ||
| Speaking of Colony Ridge, the biggest week they've had since President Trump took office and Tom Homan took office was when Tom Homan came down here with Houston ICE and they went to Colony Ridge. | ||
| They got over 600 people that week. | ||
| But again... | ||
| That's only $600 of $15 million that we've got to catch. | ||
| You compare that to Florida, which has the 287G program across the state, they got $1,200 in a week. | ||
| They doubled that. | ||
| So that's step two. | ||
| We're in phase one right now. | ||
| They're about to transition to phase two. | ||
| Governor Abbott needs to hear this. | ||
| Why is the Texas authorities, why are Abbott these people not working with... | ||
| I mean, it's MAGA country. | ||
| Trump won by 14 points. | ||
| This is what he ran on. | ||
| Why are they not working with home in 24 hours a day, sir? | ||
| Well, a lot of them are. | ||
| So when it comes to specifically DPS, I don't know. | ||
| But when it comes to the local sheriffs across the state of Texas, again, talking to Roy Boyd, a lot of them are. | ||
| To a lot of them, it's just not fast enough. | ||
| There needs to be coordination across the board. | ||
| Florida is the example right now. | ||
| You need Governor Abbott doing what Governor Florida... | ||
| And saying that all of these law enforcement agencies need to be 287G. | ||
| They all should be working with them. | ||
| And until that happens, you're going to have some jurisdictions that work better than others. | ||
| But I was surprised. | ||
| Houston, honestly, is one of the cartel hubs of America. | ||
| To hear that the law enforcement is actually working pretty closely with ICE is a hell of a lot better than what I saw in Chicago, New York, or Baltimore. | ||
| So at least they're working with them. | ||
| But you're right, there needs to be more pressure put on Abbott. | ||
| Now, Holman and these guys are doing an extraordinary job. | ||
| Ben, I want everybody to get your content, plus all the specials you're doing. | ||
| Where do they go? | ||
| Where do folks go right now? | ||
| At Real America's Voice, americasvoice.news, Real AM Voice on social media. | ||
| Mine is frontlineamerica.com and at Ben Berquam. | ||
| We're putting the stuff we just got out of the detention center together. | ||
| That'll be out on Real America's Voice News social media by the end of the day. | ||
| So stay tuned. | ||
| You won't see it anywhere else. | ||
| Perfect. | ||
| I think we're going to do... | ||
| I'll talk to you after the show. | ||
| I think we're going to do something on 287G and everything else that's going on down in Texas, maybe in one fell swoop. | ||

| Also, we're going to have this, I'm going to get Poso, they're rigging this deal in Poland. | ||
| They're so nervous in this first round of the conservatives. | ||
| They're so nervous. | ||
