steve bannon
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'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.
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.

War Room.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.
steve bannon
Tuesday, 10 June, the year of our Lord, 2025.
Today, the commander-in-chief that's done so much to put down the riots in Los Angeles with a show of force at the federal level because the locals were not getting it done.
And what happened last night when the police started pushing back, that is 1,000% because President Trump has dropped the hammer with the military.
He's going to Fort Bragg today.
To watch and meet folks from the 82nd Airborne, our own Brian Glenn, Real America's Voice, man on the scene, will be with the President today.
Brian, you're at the White House now.
Walk us through the evolution of this event.
We're going to be covering all of it wall-to-wall, live here on Real America's Voice.
What do you got for me, brother?
brian glenn
Yeah, good morning, Steve.
It should be really interesting to watch it all go down today as Real America's Voice is a part of that traveling pull.
Behind me is the White House.
We're going to meet right outside the Palme Doors at around noon, and then we're going to make our way to the South Portico, get in the motorcade there, and Motorcade 2. Joint Base Andrews from at that point will make our way down to Fort Bragg and like you talked about earlier.
I mean, it's called Fort Bragg for a reason, and that should be called rightfully so.
And so at around 2.40 East Coast time, he's going to participate or watch a military demonstration.
You're going to see what it's like to be in the presidential motorcade from the White House.
To Joint Base Andrews.
And of course, from there, we'll jump on, from what I understand, Air Force One.
And then at one point, we're going to get on a helicopter to make our final way to Fort Bragg, or at least to the area where all this will take place.
So you're going to be able to sit back at home, sit at work, sit in your car, watch this on your phone, your tablet, your computer, as it all goes down today.
And Steve, you laid this out perfect.
The Commander-in-Chief.
Brought law and order to the streets of Los Angeles, and today the world is going to see just how awesome our military is today as he celebrates building up to 250 on Saturday, that great anniversary of the Army and our country, and just a great celebration of this country, and we'll, of course, have coverage on that as well, Steve.
steve bannon
Yeah, we're going to have all-day coverage, Real America's Voice.
We're going to make some announcements about what we're doing with the entire team, post on everybody.
It's going to be quite extraordinary.
Real quickly, Brian, this will take place, I think he's supposed to actually make an address down there around 4 o 'clock.
He's going to see the demonstration beforehand.
He'll obviously be in Marine One.
Give me your thoughts.
I haven't had a chance to get you on here.
About the show of force.
That Pete Hegseth and others put together for the president.
The nationalizing of the National Guard.
Now you have 4,000 National Guard troops.
We've got a battalion of Marines that are at the ready.
And President Trump's prepared to do so much more.
This is why Tom Homan today, Tom, brother, we need a massive, massive, multiple raids all over.
Los Angeles.
And hey, pick up a couple of CEOs and COOs that are hiring these folks too when you go, Tom.
Make sure you grab a couple, three of those.
Brian, your thoughts about Los Angeles and breaking at least wave one.
Folks, because if Trump had not had that show of force, you'd be in day six of burning down.
It'd be like Rodney King.
Every night you have helicopters going around and all these people coming on CNN with the long face crying, right?
Oh, this is so terrible.
President Trump stopped it, okay?
He says, we're not going to have this crap.
We're not going to do this again.
Your thoughts, Brian Glenn?
brian glenn
You're absolutely right.
And, of course, we saw the chaos that took place before Trump sent the military back up, the National Guard, and, of course, a lot of our Marines in there to set law and order.
But you're absolutely right, because if that would have been successful, to a certain degree they were for a few days, but we've stomped that out.
You're seeing other cities around the country start to pop off.
We had Dallas, Texas last night, really close to my home there.
That does not make me happy at all.
What also was planned this weekend is this No Kings rally, this anti-Trump, anti-ice protest around the country.
1,500 cities on tap for this Saturday to potentially experience the same thing that Los Angeles has been going through.
Now, the one that was planned here for D.C., get this, Steve, that's been canceled because of the military parade.
But hang on.
steve bannon
There's a lesson.
The left's given us a lesson.
They just announced they're not going to do D.C., which they first planned to have a big one because there's already a show of force there.
unidentified
Hmm.
steve bannon
That's interesting.
Why are they not going to do D.C.?
Because of a show of force.
This is why I think this weekend throughout the country, and I hope this is one of the things he's talking to 86 and airborne about, we're not going to make this like, It's not going to be like 1968.
We're just not going to let these cities burn.
President Trump's not going to let these riots get out of control.
He's going to shut them down.
And the liberals can sit there and put...
rub the left's noses in it,'cause the American people, and as Harry Enten showed us, particularly immigrant citizens in this country, Hispanics and blacks, Yeah.
They got to live in it and live around it and they're tired of it and nobody speaks to them.
This is why they love Trump.
This is why you saw those huge numbers.
Harry Enten's head's blown up in CNN.
They're all crawling to death.
And I got to make note.
You do not see this on primetime in CNN.
You see Harry Enten in the morning.
I don't see Caitlin Collins.
I don't see Abby Phillips.
I don't see Anderson Cooper getting Harry in there and rubbing the nose of the CNN viewer, these white progressive liberals sitting back taking all the advantage of the illegal aliens, right, and not paying any price.
They don't want to see it, Brian Glenn, sir.
brian glenn
You're right.
And think about what we campaigned on this last season.
We campaigned on the BLM riots across the country, cities burning, and that if President Trump was in charge of all of that, that would not have happened.
So that's a great point, Steve, that we're going to prove to the world that the Republican Party, President Trump, the Trump administration, Tom Holman, the whole Homeland Security, we will not tolerate this type of lawlessness on the streets.
There's a big difference.
Between protesting and exercising your right to do so and throwing bricks off overpasses onto cars and burning down businesses is not going to happen.
So the sign of force is working.
Let's see what happens this Saturday.
Hopefully nothing develops there, but you're absolutely right.
Strength.
It's key here, and President Trump obviously flexing the muscle with the deployment of the troops, the Marines, and the National Guard.
steve bannon
In the middle of this, with Rachel Marrow with that long face, and Trump's going to Fort Bragg, he's going to go see the 82nd Airborne.
Suck on that, baby.
Brian Glenn, what's your social media?
We're going to be with you all afternoon and into the evening as you go to Fort Bragg with the President.
Where are the people following your social media?
brian glenn
Great.
You can follow me at BrianGlennTV on Twitter, at Brian on True Social, at BrianGlennTV on Facebook and Instagram.
I will try to do as much behind the scenes as I can as we board the planes, the motorcade, and the helicopters and see that wonderful display of military demonstration right in front of us here a little bit later this afternoon.
steve bannon
Hey, hey, hey.
Rob Sakes putting out for that seat on the plane today.
Better have some good stuff, man.
They throw nickels around like their manhole covers.
You've got to deliver, boy.
It better be great.
They throw nickels around like their manhole covers down there in Palm Beach.
Thank you so much.
brian glenn
We're just doing this right here.
All right, Steve.
You got it.
steve bannon
Thank you.
Solomon.
Is this President Trump giving a full flex?
Rachel Maddow last night's head blowing up.
This is a dictator.
This is an autocrat.
Hey, Trump, I think I'll go to Fort Bragg today.
I'll hang out with the 82nd Airborne.
Your thoughts, sir?
john solomon
I'll help Rachel out.
This is a law and order president, and he learned the lessons of Portland in 2020.
L.A. is no Portland.
Donald Trump on every aspect of this protest has been ahead of the left.
Getting assertive law and order authority in place, not letting the Democrats slow walk security.
And I think at the end of the day, the first result is that this has already been quelled to some degree.
And now the second big thing.
This morning, Kash Patel told us, and we have it on the record up on Just the News, that they're following the money trail.
The second way...
And that is something that never happened in 2020 under Bill Barr.
It is happening under Pam Bondi and Kash Patel as we speak and under Kristi Noem and the Homeland Security Investigations Intelligence Unit.
They're fast at work because if you could choke off the money, And I think that that is a big change from 2020.
You can see this administration was ready for this moment.
They imposed law and order.
They didn't let the media, the Democrats, or the elitists dictate the terms.
They dictated the terms.
And I think L.A. has been safer as a result of it.
steve bannon
Okay, John, this is one of the reasons I want to have you on this morning.
Another great investigative report of a Justine News group at center of initial anti-ice protest funded by California and federal government.
And you've got money.
You've got these high net worth billionaires and the billionaire kids.
But you've also got taxpayer money going to fund this, which is unbelievable.
What do you got for us?
john solomon
So this group, Charla, has been around since the 1980s.
It has been at the center point of the illegal immigrant movement.
They have tried to portray those who cross the border and commit crimes here sympathetically for many years.
But it became a big business in the last few years.
Where does that money come from?
the taxpayers of California more than A couple million comes from the federal government.
To the credit of the Trump administration, they cut off that funding as soon as they got into power.
But Churla is now the official spokesperson for all the anarchists you see on the ground.
They're the sympathists.
They're the people making the case.
That ICE is the bad guys and that the illegal aliens should be allowed to run wild.
In fact, one of the things they were doing going into this weekend of mayhem was asking every neighborhood in LA to immediately report when ICE was running an operation in their neighborhood so they could swarm and try to thwart ICE.
What does this show us?
It's what we've been learning for the last 20 years about the left.
They take government money, whether it's the climate change movement, the pro-illegal alien movement, and they get funding from the Justice Department, from different taxpayer-funded programs, and they actually Make these nonprofits into armies, into substantial forces that then we have to reckon with.
The California taxpayer is essentially underwriting.
Or funding the mayhem they're going through right now.
That system has to be broken.
We've seen it for 20 years.
The Justice Department would get a major environmental award.
They'd give it to the climate change people.
They'd get a major award.
They'd give it to the illegal immigrant people.
That money has built up an extraordinary war chest that now is turned around and weaponized against the American people in places like L.A. The Justice Department on top of it.
That's what Cash Patel was talking about this morning.
Choking off this money short-term, long-term.
We'll choke off a lot of these radical movements.
steve bannon
This is the Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights.
The story's up on Just the News.
Grace and Mo are going to push it out.
John, social media, where do people get you?
I know you're watching this nonstop.
john solomon
Oh yeah, Jay Solomon reports on all platforms.
I just want to shout out one thing, because, Steve, you were right about this a year ago.
We know for sure now that the Defense Intelligence Agency...
Three months into the pandemic, they knew that, and it was suppressed from the American people, the president, and Congress for many, many years.
I just want to shout you out, because you were first and right on this one.
steve bannon
No, no, that story I want to get you back on tomorrow or the next day.
We've got to take a couple of segments and drill on this, because this is incredibly important, and particularly going forward, not just how we were lied to and misled, and who's going to be held accountable.
That entire situation on the pandemic.
John Solomon, keep hammering, brother.
You're killing it.
john solomon
Will do, sir.
Good to be on your show.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
We're going to spend a lot of time over the next couple of days talking about the big, beautiful bill, particularly people talking about cutting spending as we need to do.
There's all types of alternatives coming up in the Senate.
Even the House guys, the Freedom Caucus guys are getting back in here to try to get this thing sorted.
I don't think the whole thing gets sorted really until after the August recess, given the complexity.
But we'll be spending a lot of time.
One thing I can tell you...
This is why Scott Besson and guys are on top of it.
If you've got an IRS problem, do not think it's going to go away.
800-958-1000.
Tax Network USA.
They've already solved over a billion dollars of tax issues for folks.
They potentially can solve yours.
You're not going to know until you give them a call.
If you got a letter from the IRS, any notification, if you got it in the drawer, that's not going away.
It's metastasizing.
800-958.
TNUSA.com.
Go online.
Talk to an expert.
Tell them your tale of woe.
Give them all the facts.
Be truthful.
Let them know.
They'll think about it and they'll say, hey, they can either help or they can't.
If they can't, go talk to the IRS directly.
If they can, then think about signing them up.
It's your call.
Free men and women.
800-958-1000.
Jim Rickards.
Let's pull the camera back for a second.
We're in the...
The whole weekend on Sunday they spent an entire day talking about this Persian situation with the Israelis.
You've got Yemen, you've got the Red Sea, you've got Suez Canal, all the way over here to the United States of America, to downtown Los Angeles.
Put it in perspective for us, sir, particularly what's happening in London right now, chips for magnets.
jim rickards
Well, you must...
Because once you do that, you can work with Russia.
When you work with Russia, you can solve the problem in Iran.
Because Russians have a lot more influence on Iran than we do.
And then that helps to solve all the problems in the Middle East.
So these things are all connected, obviously, Steve.
But it starts with Ukraine.
Get that behind you fast.
It's becoming Trump's war, unfortunately.
But get it behind you fast.
We have a rapprochement with the Russians.
That'll solve the Iranian problem, and then that'll be a big step forward in the Middle East.
Yeah, the thing is, rare earths are, you know, they go into Magnus, they go into Motors, and so forth.
Rare earths are not rare.
They're everywhere.
They're in scarce quantities relative to the orbit.
They're not hard to find.
So why don't we get our mining operations going in the United States?
And by the way, Kazakhstan has quite a few, and we have good relations with Kazakhstan.
So there's solutions to all these problems just to kind of like...
The rap you hear on Trump right now is, you know, you can't make up his mind, high tariffs, low tariffs, you know, 60-day truce.
What's he doing?
you know, basically chaos.
The fact is...
I don't know why people don't get it, but you start with, you have Scott Besson's three hours.
We don't have time to go through it in detail, but the three hours of Scott Besson.
You have Steve Moran's Mar-a-Lago record.
Moran also brings in trade and tariffs, and then he brings in foreign exchange.
As reciprocal to trade and tariffs.
So if I put a big tariff on you, you cheapen your currency, you're back where you started from.
What was accomplished?
He says, no, we're not going to let you do that either.
So my point is that this is not chaotic.
It's very well thought out, very well organized.
Good economics, by the way, for a change.
And they're pursuing all of it.
So don't believe what you read in whether it's the Wall Street Journal or CNBC about chaos and disorganization on the Trump side.
A top-down plan.
I'm going to give a presentation on this down in Boca Raton in a couple weeks.
It'll be my first overview of what I call Magonomics, a new science for a new age.
but it's very well disciplined coming from the, coming from the White House.
steve bannon
You're going to put this out when?
Are you writing something right now?
jim rickards
What was that last part?
It's maybe a book proposal, but right now I'm going to give a presentation on this in Boca Raton at a symposium on June 6th or 7th, but I'll say more about it on X. You mean July 6th or 7th?
I'm sorry, July 6th or 7th.
That's good.
Okay.
We need to live stream that.
steve bannon
Yep.
unidentified
Yep.
jim rickards
Go ahead.
unidentified
Yeah.
jim rickards
Let's see if we can do that.
By the way, a quick footnote on John Solomon.
And he's exactly right.
I'm a little older than John.
I remember in the late 60s, 70s, I'm from Philly, there was a guy named Frank Rizzo.
Who was a police commissioner and then the mayor.
He was the embodiment of law and order.
And he was, by the way, very important to Richard Nixon's success in 1968.
The 72 election was the landslide, but 68 was close.
Nixon ran on law and order.
It works.
If you give people a choice between democracy and dictatorship, they'll take democracy.
But if you give them a choice between order and chaos, they'll take order every time.
And Trump's tapped into that.
He's exactly right.
steve bannon
That's what he's doing today.

Okay, we've got something very special from Ben Berkwam.
Let's hit it.
This is what the man in the street thinks about what President Trump is, what's happening in these riots, and we're going to bring in Berkwam.
unidentified
Yeah, I know.
Yeah You think that Citizens of L.A. are getting sick of this?
They got us.
They kicked in a bunch of windows over there.
They got graffiti.
I mean, and this is pristine.
This is downtown L.A. This is where people want to come visit.
I mean, what does this prove?
I mean, what advantage do they get after doing this?
You know, I come in early in the morning.
Now we've got to do all this the rest of the day.
They got concrete over there or the brick wall, the doors, and then all the way down the other side.
ben bergquam
For nothing.
unidentified
For nothing.
There's nothing gained.
Yeah.
Except pissing everybody off.
ben bergquam
There you go, Democrats.
Another beautiful L.A. landmark.
Trashed with spray paint.
Yeah, what do you think about that?
unidentified
I think it's a shame.
It's a beautiful building.
I used to live here and now I'm here on business and I just love this building.
And I walked out of the hotel and I, I was just devastated.
This is not doing them anything.
And this is just awful.
just awful and obviously they're boarding the door so they must have Yeah, broke the windows.
Broke the windows and...
Not on this.
It's sad.
ben bergquam
And it's everywhere.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
Architecture that they're ruining.
I mean, the trash can, whatever.
But architecture?
This is beautiful stuff.
This isn't doing them any good.
It's not having people, like, be on their side.
ben bergquam
Yeah.
unidentified
You know, for their cause.
When I see this, it angers me, actually.
So it's sad.
ben bergquam
Ruben, so what do you think about all this?
All this vandalism?
unidentified
I'm not agreeing with all these vandalisms.
I'm not agreeing.
I don't think this is the right way to make a protest, to get what you want.
That's not the way.
That's the wrong way, I think.
That's what I think.
We need to be with the law.
We need to obey the law.
We need to stay with the law.
Are you a legal immigrant?
ben bergquam
Are you a U.S. citizen now?
How long have you been here?
What do you think about the people that are burning the American flag and flying the Mexican flag?
unidentified
That is the same.
I'm not agreeing.
I'm not agreeing because this country made me what I am.
I'm working with the LA City.
I've been working my whole life.
I've been living here.
I've been in the United States since 1995.
I never have a...
I've never been arrested, I've never been...
I don't even have a ticket right now.
So for me, that's the right thing.
ben bergquam
Amen.
What do you think of President Trump?
unidentified
I think he's doing what he thinks.
And I don't have to say nothing wrong about him because he's a president.
What I can do.
I don't want to do what this guy's doing because he's not agreeing with that.
So that's what I think.
I don't know, man.
ben bergquam
God bless you, sir.
And Ruben?
unidentified
Ruben.
ben bergquam
God bless you, sir.
unidentified
Thank you.
steve bannon
Ben Burquam, is this what you're finding on the streets of L.A., the hard-working citizens who are legal citizens having to clean up this mess, sir?
ben bergquam
Yeah, yeah.
Everywhere you go across the city, it's that same sentiment.
And you heard it from even that second lady.
Even people that they would typically be on their side, they're losing those people as well.
But when you heard Ruben at the end, he said, this country gave me everything.
That's the mindset.
He didn't tear up when he said it, but when I think about that, I think about my wife.
They escaped communism from Laos to come here, and so many others that have come to this great nation to make a better life for themselves.
And to see these people just pissing it down the drain, it just is infuriating.
It's infuriating.
And so you've got guys like that, just hard workers.
steve bannon
He's had their back.
This is why he had the show of force.
Ben, where do people go?
You've got a lot more coming up today.
We'll have you on the afternoon show.
Where do people get you?
ben bergquam
America's Voice, Real America's Voice, a new episode of Law& Border just came out this last weekend.
We've got more coming up.
America's Voice.News, on social media, at RealAMVoice, and all my social media, at Ben Burquam, FrontlineAmerica.com, and our substack, Frontline America.
steve bannon
Thank you, brother.
We told you all those years that these folks spent down the Darien Gap, they told you it was coming to the United States, it was an invasion.
President Trump now has got to sort this mess out, and he's doing it.
He's got a show of force and a full flex.
That's why he's going down to Fort Bragg, North Carolina today to visit with the 82nd Airborne.
Folks, these riders in the country better get their minds right.
President Trump's not going to tolerate it anywhere, at any time.
Short break.
We're going to Texas.
Sort this mess out next.

972 Patriot.
Glenn's story and the team at Patriot Mobile.
Mitch Little joins us.
Mitch, I don't even know where to start.
This legislative session was insanity.
How the Bush apparatus has turned over to the Democrats and are working against MAGA and the folks in Texas.
Particularly what the folks in Texas voted for.
Trump won by 14 points.
14 points.
Now there's a story that Soros is coming back in.
The young Soros boy is coming back in big because they see an opportunity to turn Texas purple and then blue.
You had this story.
Loomer had it the other day.
I turned it on to it.
They had an Israel conference put on by Christians for Christians to support Israel.
Got shut down in Dallas and couldn't even put up the conference because jihadists calling in.
Everywhere you look, Contlin, down in Houston, you got illegal aliens everywhere.
You've got the 87, what, the 287 G bill barely passed.
You don't have the sheriffs working together, not like in Florida, not like in the rest of these states.
So, Mitch Lowe, the question we got, what in the hell is wrong with Texas?
The people, MAGA, has overwhelmingly delivered victory, and these people have worked like crazy.
What is the problem down there, sir?
mitch little
You know, Steve, one of the things I love about being with you is I know you're a student of history.
I think if we look at history back long enough, we see that dynasties and empires are lost either by their excesses or their apathy.
And we are at a stage in time where there are glimmers of hope in Texas.
We have the right people voting.
We're getting the right electoral outcomes.
But there's so much compromise that's going on.
What we're seeing is not enough commitment to border enforcement, not enough commitment to reduce spending when we do have a legislation.
We are just not doing enough to let The Texas citizen determine his own life or her own life and letting business solve business problems.
Texas is guilty of, in many ways, the same excesses that the Democrats are guilty of.
And it's access to the public treasury, insufficient commitment to liberty.
steve bannon
So what's to be done?
I mean, we've got the right electorate.
You guys have worked for years.
The grassroots and the grassroots people down in Texas, second to none, have turned out and delivered.
My concern is you're going to start losing.
People are going to say, hey, if we keep getting the votes and keep winning, but these people turn it over to the Democrats, and now you guys are your hottest down there.
You've got the situation at a colony and nobody's cleaning it out.
Everywhere, I hear from the grassroots, and they say everywhere they look, they just don't think that anybody's delivering for them.
So how do we change the rent?
I know the polling's got Cornyn getting crushed by General Paxton.
But, you know, people are sitting there going, does this matter?
And as soon as that happens, and this is why Soros, who we defeated, they put $400 million in.
You guys beat them.
They kind of withdrew.
Now they're going to come back full force because they see an opportunity, sir.
mitch little
Grassroots Republicans have an opportunity to capture this machine.
And every primary season, we have an opportunity to determine who's going to represent us.
What you're seeing, and I think you properly identified it with Soros pouring money into the state of Texas, is they think there's an opportunity there.
The problem is Democrats, they simply don't have anything to sell.
They don't have an alternate version of reality that people can accept.
And you look at what happened in Dallas last night.
You look at what happened in Austin, it's happening all over the country, is the government is starting to lose its monopoly on violence.
And what I mean is there's instability, which is really just, it's politics by another means.
So I think eventually we're going to get to who's funding these protests, but the goal is to extort the public into believing that there's another political vision that's more acceptable than the one that they live in now.
The subtle message behind these protests is, what a nice country.
It'd be a shame if something happened to it.
Don't you want us to stop?
Don't you want to just simply elect someone else and give someone else a try?
The problem is when we were in the legislative session over the last six months, the things that incited the Democrats to just to be crazed in the chamber were elections.
Anything that had to do with reforming our elections, anything that had to do with a traditional view of sex and gender and anything that had to do with keeping sexualization of our kids out of schools.
That sent them into a fever pitch for a period of over the whole.
We'd be in hours and hours and hours of debate.
It's because their vision of society is simply incompatible with the one that you and I grew up in.
steve bannon
And if we don't keep fighting, if we don't continue identifying conservatives… But how could it be compatible to the Bush?
Our problem is not the Democrats.
The problem is you've got a business community built up in the Bushes that have betrayed… Betrayed the people who put them in office.
They betrayed them.
And behind the scenes, they're allowing those people to have a thing.
So how do we – What you just mentioned.
Everything on the elections drives them crazy.
The sexualization.
Sex and gender drives them nuts.
Right?
But they're a small minority.
But they're made actually something politically because of the business community.
Why is the business community prepared to do this?
And quite frankly, the business community is selling you out on the radical jihadists too because they're taking money from people, building stuff.
It's the real estate community.
It's the construction community.
It's all of it.
So how do we stop that?
The question is how do we stop that?
You stop that, then grassroots is going to run Texas, sir.
mitch little
It's fascinating to me.
You're one of the few people, one of the few voices that I've heard accurately identifying this.
The typical Republican constituency is, you know, business community, business owners.
They've been given over to ESG.
They've been given over to illegal immigration.
Reforming the court system.
And really, it's a shift away from populism and to crony capitalism.
So how do we defeat that thing?
We've got to identify grassroots warriors to continue making incremental change in the legislature, in statewide office.
If you take the Paxton-Cornyn feud and primary battle as one example of this, you have someone who's a true politician.
What we're finding is, what real Republicans and conservatives are finding is, that group of people that we thought we could count on to keep Republicans in office has sold us out to the other side.
And we need a divorce.
Fundamentally, we need a divorce.
steve bannon
So you're in the legislature now, but I understand that you're also thinking of potentially running for attorney general.
How do you recommend we pull all this together?
And do you have interest in being attorney general?
mitch little
I'm definitely interested in it.
Here's the thing.
It's keeping me up at night.
Right now, we have the benefit of having President Trump in office.
That will not always be the case for whoever we elect attorney general.
So that person will be elected in 2026.
They will have two years with President Trump at the helm.
And then what?
Maybe it's another Republican who's just as good as President Trump, or maybe it's the alternative.
In which event, you better not have hired a gardener in a war.
You better have hired a warrior in a garden.
You need someone who has fought the battles in courthouses all over this country, who is willing to take on the administration in the same way that Paxton did.
I mean, he sued the Biden administration literally hundreds of times.
That may be necessary again.
And whoever is in that role, you've got to be confident that you hired the best lawyer for the role that you could possibly hire.
It's because that person, if worse comes to worse, Texas is going to be dependent upon that frontline soul.
I kind of see these protests as the birth pangs of what's coming politically.
Soros is going to dump a bunch of money into Texas, but we have to be ready to take on the fight day one if they have any measure of success.
I don't know.
Do we have the candidate in the race yet for that?
steve bannon
Mitch, where do people go to find out more about you, how you fought down there with Harrison to thwart this mess, and more information about your future?
Where do folks go?
mitch little
Yeah, it's easy to find me.
I have a website, MitchLittleFORTexas.com, or you can find me at AtRealMitchLittle on X. I'm periodically over there.
Now that the legislative session is over, trying to figure out my next steps and going back into law practice and making sure that I can provide for my family.
But there are so many things that are just simmering right below a boil right now, Steve, and you're seeing it.
I was watching the segments leading into this.
We need to be ready to fight on every front.
steve bannon
Well, last night, I'll be blunt, President Trump's show of force.
In Los Angeles, Los Angeles turned out to be nothing because the police finally had, the military had their back.
They started pushing these guys back.
They pushed them back blocks and blocks and blocks before sundown.
The mesmerizing photos were in Texas, were in Dallas and San Antonio.
And there, the police, I'll be blunt, and the Dallas police looked like a DEI police force.
They were overwhelmed at least a couple of – I watched it for about 20 minutes.
They were overwhelmed, didn't look – I mean they were brave stepping into the breach.
They didn't look particularly trained.
They also didn't look like they were in shape.
This didn't look like the Texas Rangers showing up.
They were not in shape.
They were overwhelmed by the protesters.
What's going on with that?
mitch little
It's that the large cities in Texas are run by the party of disaster, decay, and decline.
And so, of course, the police forces – It's going to reflect a failed ideology.
We need to make sure that our citizens are protected.
And when you look at protests like that, we have to remember back to 2020 and simply say, never again.
We're not going to let you take over a bridge.
We're not going to let you deface public buildings.
We're not going to let you harm police officers or law enforcement officials at a federal level.
There has to be a moment where the public simply says, enough is enough.
I think Texas is finally starting to get its hands, Steve, around the illegal immigrant problem with 287G implementation and making sure that our law enforcement officials are helping the federal government police federal immigration laws.
I found out from my sheriff in Denton County last night that 18%, somewhere between 18 and 20% of everybody they have in the jail is illegal.
Out of 1,300 people in the jail today, one in five of them is illegal.
Mitch, we've got to bounce.
steve bannon
Denton, Texas.
In fact, we'll play a Denton, Texas greatest maybe citizen.
Sly Stone.
Sly of the family Stone died yesterday.
He is born in Denton, Texas.
Thank you, Mitch.
Mitch Little.
A man on the rise down in Texas.
Mess down there.

short break I'm on the finger higher finger higher baby baby baby point my fire finger higher finger higher boom boom boom hey hey

steve bannon
Sly Stone died, was it yesterday?
82 years old.
Born in Denton, Texas.
Went down and talked to the Denton, Texas GOP.
Those folks are fighting the good fight down there.
all of Texas.
We're going to spend a lot more We're also going to get people on here.
If we do not sort...
Or as above, so below.
At the federal level, we got this problem.
You see it happening over there in the big, beautiful bill.
People having President Trump's back, but also helping President Trump say, hey, maybe these are other cuts that can be made.
Of course, I'm adamant about the fact that math is not going to totally work until you do not give the tax cut.
You don't send the tax cut to the upper bracket.
Or create a new bracket at a million bucks, and they go to 40% from the 37.5%, they go to 40%.
I have not seen yet any set of math that works there.
unidentified
So, you know, we're waiting for it.
steve bannon
Also, the rescissions package is going to be $9.3 billion.
It's going to be kind of a test case.
I'd like to know if the pocket rescissions, what are we talking about?
$500 billion?
$400 billion?
$300 billion?
In addition, we've got to get to the bottom of what Doge actually found.
Where's the fraud?
We need every penny cut that can possibly be cut.
And down there in Texas, you're seeing the situation where the legislation actually went against the MAGA voters.
And even when it went with the MAGA voters for the 287G, it's so watered down is actually not to be relevant.
I hope...
President Trump came in hard and fast and big at scale.
Urgency and scale.
And what happened?
Last night you saw it.
They broke the rioters.
By the time it started getting dark, they had been dispersed.
Besides all the backing they got.
As peaceful protesters from the Democratic political apparatus.
You heard from Ben Berkwam's interviews today.
Working class people don't want it.
They don't want their cities disrupted.
Life is hard enough for these folks.
They don't need other burden put on them.
And the middle class is just trying to get by.
You don't need burdens put on you.
That's what President Trump's trying to stop.
That's why it's a full flex today.
To go to Fort Bragg in this run-up to the 250th anniversary of the United States Army, of which driving the left crazy.
They hate the fact that we honor any of our institutions that are working for Americans and that are patriotic and tie us back to our traditional values, the customs and traditions that made this country what it is.
They hate that.
They're demonic.
Look what they support in Los Angeles.
Just look at it.
This is why...
Just the camera sitting there, you see it, and you see how the Democrats, and you also see how the liberal media in L.A., when she goes to the local news, fully supports it.
Well, people don't support it.
President Trump understands that.
And now as this thing gets even tougher, because the Third World War, right now we're in...
Rare earths, just dirt.
But in the process of it, you get the magnets, you get every ball, you get other things.
But if you don't process, you got to go to the Chinese and get processed.
It's not that they have more rare earths, not that they have more dirt.
They have the processing.
They bought a company a couple of years ago, 10, 12 years ago, I think it was out of Cleveland.
For under a billion dollars, that is central to this, central to the making of magnets.
unidentified
Why?
steve bannon
Because it was too dirty.
The environmentalists wanted to over-regulate it and shut it down.
Everywhere across this expanding Third World War, we're inexorably getting drawn in.
In one place, we're not.
And this is why all day, it turned out, most of the conference on Sunday at Camp David was really about Persia and Israel.
And Tulsi Gabbard didn't get invited.
It's a big deal about that.
One of the reasons I think she didn't get invited, President Trump is going through economic alternatives, diplomatic alternatives.
He's not that, I don't believe he's that focused on military.
As much as the Israelis wanted to be about military, the lead story today in Politico was about MAGA, inside MAGA, about this.
I think the reason she wasn't invited, he didn't need any analysis or intelligence about that.
He's pretty adamant, I think.
About looking for economic and diplomatic alternatives.
I know that's gonna upset some people, but I think that's what he's looking at, is alternatives, and I don't think they've done the hard, So this week is going to be an incredible week in the Third World War.
The negotiating in London, this aspect about the Persians, and of course you've got what's happening in Taiwan.
It's going to culminate this Saturday.
With the 250th birthday, we're going to have wall-to-wall coverage of this.
In addition, what is Sunday?
It's the 10-year anniversary of him coming down the golden escalator.
And for everything that's happened over the last 10 years, it's just a preamble for what's about to happen.
Because now we're in it.
Now we're in it.
Today, please, ICE, have like 100 raids in Los Angeles.
Ratchet it up.
Double and triple down.
Give them something to whine about.
They want to whine, give them something to whine about.
And don't make excuses that, hey, we're doing money-like things.
Hey, you did what you did the other day.
It's an ice raid.
They can suck on it.
You don't have to sit there and make excuses for it.
Don't kowtow to the mainstream media.
Tell them to F off.
Hey, here's what you're doing.
It's the law.
You're going to enforce the law.
And you're going to ship home these illegal alien wait-for-it invaders.
