Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann. | |
| Okay, that was pretty historic. | ||
| I'll talk about it in a second. | ||
| We're going to go up to Canada, to the G7, our own Brian Glenn. | ||
| I've got General Flynn on deck to lay out another sitrep. | ||
| Brian Glenn, what's going on there? | ||
| Yeah, good morning, Steve. | ||
| We've got the city of Calgary behind me where just... | ||
| As we speak right now, President Trump is sitting down With Carney and a discussion, we're waiting for the press poll to have an opportunity to go into that and perhaps President Trump takes some questions after that. | ||
| I've been told that after President Trump meets with Carney, he will pull Mertz aside and then have a conversation with Starmer as well as G7, the first full day underway here in Calgary. | ||
| And of course, you know, despite all of the attention the Middle East is getting, they were planning on talking about tariffs and immigration and security. | ||
| and AI and things like that, even climate change, as Canada is having about 200-plus wildfires right now with about 100 of them out of complete control, no containment on that. | ||
| So lots on the list today, but subject number one is the Israeli-Iran conflict. | ||
| And so we'll see what President Trump has to say, if he makes any public statements on that, a little bit later this morning. | ||
|

|
Okay. | |
| Brown, you hang on. | ||
| As soon as President Trump comes out and starts speaking, we're going to jump right back to Calgary. | ||
| Let's go to General Flynn. | ||
| General, you've been putting out these amazing sit reps. | ||
| You just had an opportunity to hear Tucker Carlson. | ||
| Walk us through your thoughts, sir. | ||
| Yeah, so first of all, thanks, Steve. | ||
| and i'd caught the last five minutes of tucker who how you know i completely agree with with And people are screaming at me now going, well, I'm a warmonger. | ||
| No, I'm not. | ||
| I don't want the United States of America military troops. | ||
| And keep in mind, folks, we have thousands of U.S. military over in that region right now. | ||
| But I do not want the United States to go back into another war, another quagmire in the Middle East. | ||
| I do not want that. | ||
| I want to be very clear about that. | ||
| I will tell you, my life, my military life, has been defined by a couple of key things, right? | ||
| One of them was the collapse and the coup that occurred in 1979. | ||
| General Flynn, can you hang on one second? | ||
| President Trump's speaking. | ||
| We're going to pick that up. | ||
| We're going to come right to General Mike Flynn, his former National Security Advisor. | ||
| Let's go to Calgary and President Trump. | ||
| The G7 is nothing without U.S. leadership. | ||
| And your personal leadership, the leadership of the United States, many issues, geopolitics, economic, technology, and working hand-in-hand with the United States, Canada and the United States, and the other G7 partners with your leadership. | ||
| I'm very much looking forward to the meeting. | ||
| I'm grateful to have you here. | ||
| Thank you very much, Mark. | ||
| I appreciate it. | ||
| And we've developed a very good relationship, and we're going to be talking about trade and many other things. | ||
| And we have a whole group of people, some traders and some other people. | ||
| I see my top economy people. | ||
| But we have a very talented group of people, and you do too, and I know they've worked together very well. | ||
| I look forward to that. | ||
| The G7 used to be the G8. | ||
| Barack Obama and a person named Trudeau didn't want to have Russia in. | ||
| And I would say that that was a mistake, because I think you wouldn't have a war right now if you had Russia in. | ||
| And you wouldn't have a war right now if Trump were president four years ago, but it didn't work out that way. | ||
| But it used to be the G8, and now it's, I guess, what's that, nine years ago, eight years ago, it switched over. | ||
| They threw Russia out, which I claimed was a very big mistake, even though I wasn't in politics and I was very loud about it. | ||
| It was a mistake in that you spend so much time talking about Russia, and he's no longer at the table, so it makes life more complicated. | ||
| But you wouldn't have had the war. | ||
| And other than that, I think we're going to accomplish a lot. | ||
| And I expect to. | ||
| And I think our primary focus will be trade and trade with Canada. | ||
| And I'm sure we can work something out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is holding up a deal with Canada from your perspective? | |
| It's not so much holding up. | ||
| I think we have different concepts. | ||
| I have a tariff concept. | ||
| Mark has a different concept, which is something that some people like. | ||
| But we're going to see if we can get to the bottom of it today. | ||
| I'm a tariff person. | ||
| I've always been a tariff. | ||
| Simple, it's easy, it's precise, and it just goes very quickly. | ||
| And I think Mark has a more complex idea, but also very good. | ||
| So we're going to look at both, and we're going to come out with something, hopefully. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you think a deal is achievable within days, within weeks? | |
| Is there that kind of runway? | ||
| Yeah, it's achievable. | ||
| Both parties have to agree. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, sure. | |
| Have you heard any signals or seen any messages from intermediaries that Iran wishes to de-escalate the conflict? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What have you heard? | |
| What have you heard from the Iranians? | ||
| They'd like to talk, but they should have done that. | ||
| Before, I had 60 days, and they had 60 days. | ||
| And on the 61st day, I said, we don't have a deal. | ||
| They have to make a deal. | ||
| And it's painful for both parties, but I'd say Iran is not winning this war. | ||
| And they should talk, and they should talk immediately before it's too late. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And what would you say, in your opinion, what would it take for the U.S. to get involved in this conflict militarily? | |
| I don't want to talk about that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And you mentioned Putin. | |
| Do you think that he should have a seat at the G7 today, that it should be the G8? | ||
| I'm not saying he should at this point, because too much water's gone over the dam, maybe. | ||
| But it was a big mistake. | ||
| Obama didn't want him, and the head of your country, the proud head of your country didn't want him. | ||
| This was a big mistake. | ||
| You wouldn't have that war. | ||
| You know, you have your enemy at the table. | ||
| I don't even consider him. | ||
| He wasn't really an enemy at that time. | ||
| There was no concept. | ||
| If I were president, this war would have never happened. | ||
| But likewise, if he were a member of what was called the G8 at that time, it was always the G8, you wouldn't have a war right now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What intelligence support are you providing Israel? | |
| We've always supported Israel. | ||
| We have for a long period of time, strongly. | ||
| And Israel's doing very well right now. | ||
| Why not have China at the G8? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why not have China here? | |
| The biggest economy in the world after the United States. | ||
| Well, it's not a bad idea. | ||
| I don't mind that. | ||
| If somebody wants to suggest China coming in, I think we suggest. | ||
| But you want to have people that you can talk to. | ||
| You know, they don't talk. | ||
| Putin speaks to me. | ||
| He doesn't speak to anybody else. | ||
| He doesn't want to talk. | ||
| Because he was very insulted when he got thrown out of the GA. | ||
| As I would be, as you would be, as anybody would be. | ||
| He was very insulted. | ||
| And, I mean, he was thrown out by Trudeau. | ||
| Who convinced one or two people, along with Obama, he was thrown out. | ||
| And he's not a happy person about it, I can tell you that. | ||
| He doesn't even speak to the people that throw him out. | ||
| And I agree with him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know what you're saying. | |
| You did a post last night where you said you want ICE to really target I look at New York. | ||
| I look at Chicago. | ||
| I mean, you've got a really bad governor in Chicago and a bad mayor. | ||
| But the governor's probably the worst in the country, Pritzker. | ||
| But I look at how that city has been overrun by criminals. | ||
| And, you know, New York and L.A. Look at L.A. L.A., those people weren't from. | ||
| L.A., they weren't from California, most of those people, many of those people. | ||
| Yeah, that's the focus. | ||
| Biden allowed 21 million people to come into our country. | ||
| Of that, vast numbers of those people were murderers, killers, people from gangs, people from jails. | ||
| They emptied their jails out into the U.S. Most of those people are in the cities, all blue cities, all Democrat-run cities, and they think they're going to use them to vote. | ||
| It's not going to happen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| If you don't mind, I'm just going to exercise my role, if you will, as a G7 chair, since we have a few more minutes with the President and his team, and then we actually have to start the meeting to address some of these big issues. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you, media. | |
| Let's go. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's it. | |
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Right there, the President of the United States. | ||
| On Real America's Voice all day, we're going to go back to General Flynn. | ||
| First off, I want to go back to your assessment of Tucker and your thoughts, but I've got to ask you, as a former National Security Advisor, the President, how do you interpret his answer when he was asked point-blank about getting involved more in what I call the Persian War, sir? | ||
| Yeah, I mean, we're involved, Steve, and people need to understand that we've been in the Middle East my entire life, my entire military career. | ||
| So we have to stop this being involved. | ||
| We're involved. | ||
| We provide intelligence capabilities, certainly to Israel and to many, many of the other countries. | ||
| We provide all kinds of weapons systems. | ||
| We provide all kinds of training support to every, damn near every country in that region. | ||
| I mean, we've been pouring billions of dollars into Egypt. | ||
| I mean, since the late 70s. | ||
| So we've got to kid ourselves about getting involved here. | ||
| We're involved. | ||
| Now, should we be sending divisions, Army divisions and Marine regiments over to the Middle East? | ||
| No. | ||
| And that's where my line is for, you know, my advice would be to the president to, you know, continue to do the things that he's doing, which is really to continue to provide the types of capabilities and particularly intelligence capabilities, but other things to Israel. | ||
| I do think, you know, to what President Trump just said, there have been so many mistakes made in the last decade and a half by former presidents and other prominent... | ||
| And that's his point about basically embarrassing Putin and pushing Putin out of the G8. | ||
| I mean, we probably would not have had. | ||
| That war in Eastern Europe. | ||
| So, you know, a couple of things. | ||
| I do, for people that don't follow me and maybe just listen to The War Room, you know, you can find me at Jen Flynn on X. And I've been putting out these sit reps every day. | ||
| Mostly they were tactical the last couple of days. | ||
| But today I decided to talk about the geopolitical interests of China and how China is going to benefit if we... | ||
| So, you know, for this, to just prepare this morning, Steve, and I'm going to rifle through these quickly because I know, you know, time is not always there on both our accounts. | ||
| General, hang on, hang on. | ||
| We're going to hold you, if we can hold you through the break, we've got another whole segment, an eight-minute segment after this. | ||
| We've still got two minutes. | ||
| Before you get to the sit-rep, and I want everybody to read it, I want Grace and Mo to push it out. | ||
| One of the basic philosophies we had, and the reason, quite frankly, you were chosen, given your expertise in this area, Was the pivot to Asia. | ||
| One of the issues you just said your entire life, the Pentagon, the army, the mentality is a CENTCOM mentality. | ||
| And people don't understand this. | ||
| They're so focused on the Middle East because all of you guys came up fighting these wars, right? | ||
| You know all the participants. | ||
| Remember, one of the biggest things was to pivot to Asia. | ||
| And we still right now we've got the we've got we've got the Nimitz carrier strike group is coming through the Straits of Malacca from the South China Sea. | ||
| And that's not just one aircraft carrier. | ||
| For the people that don't know, that's not just one aircraft carrier. | ||
| It's a battle group. | ||
| It's a load of ships, submarines, aircraft. | ||
| I think that's going to put us out about what they call three groups now in the Middle East. | ||
| We need to be focused on the principal 21st century adversary, and I'll call him an adversary, and that's China. | ||
| So when we talk about pivot to the Pacific, which you go back 15, 20 years, I mean, this is an area of expertise that I've been paying attention to for a long, long time. | ||
| Mike, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to tie it all together. | ||
| General Flynn's going to walk through the geopolitics of it. | ||
| He's got a sit rep out this morning. | ||
| We had the great Tucker Carlson on here for almost, what, about an hour, 45 minutes? | ||
| Pretty extraordinary trying to cut that up right now. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| By the way, Financial Times of London got an amazing story out about gold, about gold as the, I guess, most stable currency in the world. | ||
| Finally caught up with the war room. | ||

| Short commercial break. | ||
| General Mike Flynn, President Trump's former National Security Advisor, next in the war room. | ||
|

|
We rejoice when there's no more. | |
| Let's take down the CCP. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| General Flynn's putting out sit-ups, so tactical sit-ups about what's going on between Israel and Iran, as we refer to Persia, plus strategic—talking about a strategic—the pivot out of the Middle East, sir, to actually confront the existential threat to the country, the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| Your thoughts? | ||
| Yeah, so China, China, China. | ||
| That's what I want your audience to understand. | ||
| So a couple of things. | ||
| Israel is fighting their war, and we are, in fact, supporting it. | ||
| And it's really protecting Western civilization from a psychotic regime that wanted nuclear weapons, and was very, very close to having them. | ||
| Number two, we have to allow Israel to finish the job. | ||
| The third thing is, is a positive, this is really important, a positive U.S. relationship. | ||
| With an Iranian regime, so whatever the regime is that rises up out of the ashes, if we have a positive relationship with that regime, that really benefits the United States of America, particularly against China, and it weakens China. | ||
| Number four, a victory by Israel. | ||
| I'm not talking about American troops and all this other stuff, but a victory by Israel, it really allows us the expansion of the Abraham Accords. | ||
| Right? | ||
| This is a signature Trump policy. | ||
| Steve, you're very familiar with that. | ||
| Signature Trump policy. | ||
| So it allows an expansion of that. | ||
| Number five, the defeat of Iran and stabilizing that region. | ||
| Stabilizing, because Iran is the most destabilizing. | ||
| I want people to understand that. | ||
| Just look at the statement that was put out by the Iraqi Prime Minister today. | ||
| It's unbelievable. | ||
| Number six, establishing, or this victory, a victory by Israel establishes the perception, if not the reality, of U.S. global dominance and certainly Israeli dominance in that region. | ||
| The other Arab nations are paying very close attention to the way Israel is conducting its military operations. | ||
| I mean, they're exquisite military operations. | ||
| These countries can't do that. | ||
| The other countries in the Middle East can't do that. | ||
| And number eight, this is really an important one. | ||
| This is much more geopolitical. | ||
| If we have an Iran that is closer to the West and closer to the United States of America, then we can have an Iran that is closer to India. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| India. | ||
| That's why we call it the Indo-Pacific Basin, Steve. | ||
| So the Indo-Pacific Basin this century, we're already in the third decade of this century, is the defining... | ||
| And if we don't deal with China, and they're the wolf inside the henhouse. | ||
| I said this the other day on your show. | ||
| China is all over our stuff here inside the United States of America. | ||
| They're everywhere. | ||
| They've been killing... | ||
| I mean, the amounts of real estate that they've purchased by critical military institutions, the amount of infiltration that they have inside of not only the institutions of government, but the institutions of all other aspects of our society, corporate, the corporate world, clearly the educational institutions of our colleges and universities. | ||
| So this is how the... | ||
| The Israelis are not asking us for divisions of troops. | ||
| They're asking us to make sure that we continue to give them the things that we've always given them, Steve. | ||
| And frankly, all the other Arab nations get... | ||
| Just ask the Egyptians or go back and look at how much money we've poured into Egypt since really the early, early 1980s. | ||
| Yes, Steve. | ||
| Mike, we've got to bounce, but we're going to get you back on with another SITREP. | ||
| Where do people go to get the SITREPs? | ||
| Where do they go to get all your content, sir? | ||
| Yeah, go to GeneralFlynn.com. | ||
| That's my website, GeneralFlynn.com. | ||
| And then go to at Jen Flynn on X. And I post it on a bunch of I cross posted on a bunch of other platforms. | ||
| But go to General Flynn dot com and you can find everything there. | ||
| I mean, myself and Boone Cutler wrote a series on this war that we are in. | ||
| OK, it's called Fifth Generation Warfare. | ||
| You can go to the General Flynn dot com and start reading up, folks, because we're going to we're in the middle of it. | ||
| And it ain't going to end this weekend. | ||
| The great Boone Cutler. | ||
| We'll have you back on. | ||
| General Flynn, thank you so much. | ||
| Thanks, Steve. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| Also, go over American Greatness if Moe and Grayson pushes out. | ||
| Captain Fennell's got an incredible piece about the United States Navy, Midway Strategic, what's happening. | ||
| Obviously, we're going to get all of that. | ||
| Dr. Kim from Field of Greens, Tucker Carlson gave you the best tee-up in the world. | ||
| He said, hey, when people hit 50, no matter what they do, you're just going to put on weight. | ||
| Unless you're maniacally focused, you're just going to put on weight. | ||
| You've actually got a product. | ||
| That helps those people who don't have the discipline to do it themselves. | ||
| What do you got for us, Dr. Kim? | ||
| You know, we're looking at, you know, we brought over Lean to you guys a few months ago, and it's been working great. | ||
| And, you know, I think the number one thing that everyone's been talking about is these GLP drugs, right? | ||
| GLP-1, I guess. | ||
| So I think one of the things that people have done while they've taken those is that they've seen weight loss, but it's come at a price. | ||
| They've lost it with Lean body mass. | ||
| They've been losing muscle while they've been taking it. | ||
| So I think one of the big things that we've done and what we've been trying to focus on over here at BrickHouse is it's about a lifestyle change. | ||
| So lean is a supplement that allows you to cut some weight by either It allows you to burn your brown fat as energy and increase your basal metabolic rate. | ||
| It also has a chance to give you some increased satiety. | ||
| So there's this pattern of things that the supplement does for you that assists you in weight loss. | ||
| But on top of that, it's a constant reminder to change your lifestyle and habits as you wake up in the morning. | ||
| It's no different than your coffee. | ||
| So we've done that. | ||
| We've had that done. | ||
| And people have had tremendous results maintaining their weight loss, building lean body mass, and continuing Thank you. | ||
| It actually is supplemented in my coffee in the morning, right? | ||
| So I get this energy boost from the Field of Greens because it's made with organic fruits and vegetables. | ||
| And then on top of that, we've added the Lean to help us out with our weight loss. | ||
| So you can get that also at TakeLean.com. | ||
| Real quickly, where does everybody go for Field of Greens and for Lean? | ||
| Where do they go? | ||
| Lean, you can go to TakeLean.com. | ||
| Once again, that's TakeLean.com. | ||
| And you can use the code BANN20. | ||
| And then for Field of Greens, you can go to FieldofGreens.com. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| Dr. Kim. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| Still the Greens. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Appreciate it. | |
| And Lean. | ||
| Gotta get Dr. Kim back on. | ||
| Today was crazy. | ||
| Charlie Kirk, the great Charlie Kirk, picks it up from here. | ||
| Poso after that. | ||
| Steve Gruber, Eric Bolling, and then back to the war. | ||
| And we're going to be on fire at 5 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time today. | ||
| Do not miss it. |
