steve bannon
This is the final scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies.
Because we're going medieval on these people.
Here's not got a free shot on 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're trying to do everything in the world to stop it, 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?
Mega Media.
I wish, in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
steve bannon
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
steve bannon
It's Monday, 30, June, Year of our Lord, 2025.
We're going to go to LAX by phone is Philip Patrick.
They're leaving for Brazil and Rio for the BRICS conference, the Rio reset.
Philip, why are you guys going down?
Why do you think this is so important to cover?
And what relationship does this have with people understanding about gold as a hedge in modern financial times, sir?
phillip patrick
Well, this is huge.
I mean, this is the result of what the BRICS have been working on for over a decade, right?
And we've been talking about this.
We've been seeing central banks around the world de-dollarizing really since 2022.
Behind the scenes, the BRICS have been building, as I've said before, a shadow financial system.
And I think this will be the soft launch of that system.
So, you know, for us to be there, to be on the ground, we have access to finance ministers, get the right information.
But I think ultimately, Steve, we want to be there.
We want to access the information.
We want to be part of history.
And that's why we're going.
steve bannon
Do you think Elon Musk just put out in the Insider Paper is putting up online that Elon Musk just announced or just warned, quote, if this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will launch the very next day, end quote, as a direct challenge to President Trump and the MAGA movement.
There is a $5 trillion lift to the debt ceiling in this package, and we've been talking over the last couple of days nonstop about spending, the cuts.
Of course, the parliamentary is ruling out this.
She's ruling back in this.
It's very confusing where this is going right now, but it looks like they're pressing forward.
Do the BRICS have a point that at some point we have the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar is dropping, and they look at people who should be fiduciaries, and they don't know the inside of our tax cut and the supply-side growth of what President Trump's banking on with Scott Besson's bank on.
We just had the chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors, Dr. Steve Murrin, on here to kick the show off that talked about the 2.8% growth and how we're going to grow our way out of this.
But did the BRICS have a point to actually be concerned about this enough to say, hey, maybe we need our own currency backed by some sort of gold certificate or something, sir?
phillip patrick
Look, the answer is to a degree, yes.
I don't think that was ultimately the catalyst for the BRICS.
We've got to remember gold buying by the BRICS started in 2022 with Biden's weaponization of the dollar.
So I think ultimately that was the real catalyst that forced the BRICS into action.
However, we're making the argument easier, right?
We're running huge deficits, which makes the dollar as a store of value far less attractive.
So we're sort of creating the argument.
I think Elon has had a large part to play in this as well.
I mean, remember when they came out, Doge were promising to cut $2 trillion in spending, and it never materialized.
And ultimately, I think the budget is strong.
I think it's a growth plan, and I think that's what President Trump does well.
Without the spending cut, if the deficit explodes, I think it's going to create a problem, and I think it'll sort of push the bricks thing, and it'll allow it to gather steam, because that's what it is, right?
They're not flicking a switch, and July 8th, the dollar loses global reserve currency status.
This will be a gradual thing.
But the more transactions that happen globally outside of U.S. dollars, the weaker the longer-term argument will become.
So, yes, we've got to get our fiscal house in order.
unidentified
There's no question about it.
steve bannon
End of the dollar empire.
Go to birchgold.com, promo code Bannon, end of the dollar empire, seven free installments.
You'll be the smartest person at the July 4th barbecue.
I can guarantee you that.
But you also start to understand something about your own country's financial direction and also your own personal financial situation.
The RIA Reset is a seventh free installment, or just get your phone out.
Text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, at 989898 to get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and precious metals in the age of Trump.
And all the information is free.
We pride ourselves in working with our partners at Birch Gold to make sure it's all free.
So we're really looking forward to this, Philip.
We've talked about it for a long time.
We've done a bunch of analysis put out there for people.
We'll be checking in with you every day.
And thank you so much.
I know you're about to get on the plane to check in with the audience who's very excited about your trip and hearing from you live when you meet with all the big shot central bankers and finance ministers, sir.
phillip patrick
I'm looking forward to it.
I'm looking, it's an honor to report on behalf of the War Room.
So we'll get the information over and looking forward to speaking with you soon.
Thanks, Steve.
steve bannon
Thank you.
Philip Patrick Birch Gold.
Go check it out today.
He's also on Getter.
And my strong recommendation is get a relationship with the guys at Birch Gold.
They'll walk you through everything and particularly show you why gold has been a hedge in times of financial turbulence.
Jackie, I got Jackie Turberoff, and I've also got Dave Ramaswamy in the war room.
Jackie, you've done more.
In fact, you're the first ones, one of the first ones.
There were a couple others that gave me a heads up early on, and Alex deGrasse had been looking at this of the seriousness of the ground game and other interconnections that Zorhan had in New York City to bring this about.
People are pretty shocked.
I know there are a lot of people, even yourself, at the end, thought Cuomo with $40 million in the Cuomo name and the muscle might pull it off.
He didn't, but Cuomo's polling does show him that he's got a shot.
So he's not dropping out.
Eric Adams is not dropping out.
Curtis Sleewa is not dropping out, at least at this moment.
So this is a, New York City's in a jam.
But I want to pull the camera back and talk about all the research you've done of what brought this on.
This didn't happen overnight.
This has been a very well thought through process.
Can you walk us through it?
jackie toboroff
Yeah.
So first, Zoran Mamdami won 430,000 votes.
And this is important because he is going into the November 4th general election with 430,000 votes.
Just to give you some perspective, the last New York City mayoral election in 2021 drew approximately 1 million votes.
Now, out of this number, this is where things get interesting.
He is endorsed by the Working Family Party.
And as we've discussed before, they don't like work and they don't like family.
But here's the thing about the Working Family Party.
They are culturally and economically Marxists and they mirror exactly what is going on on these school campuses like CUNY, like NYU, and like Columbia.
Now, combined, the student, faculty, and staff number for these three institutions, these campuses in New York City is approximately 360,000 people.
Why is this important?
Again, let's go back to he got 430,000 votes.
The total population in these three school campuses are 360,000.
These schools need to be reclassified as PACs and lose all federal, state, and local funding and have to pay the gift and property tax.
Why?
Because they substituted education for progressive activism.
Zoran Mamdami cleaned up with two demographics, Muslims and white educated progressives south of 45.
Actually, he got 60% of 18 to 34-year-olds compared to Cuomo who got 10%.
This is very important because these NYU, Columbia, and CUNY schools were really the satellites for the get out the vote, for messaging.
They got free media with all of their riots and actually voters.
The faculty and staff encouraged people from, you know, who had links with Hamas to within our lifetime, Students for Justice of Palestine, Code Pink, all of these groups like Empower Change, these very progressive, culturally Marxist, economically Marxist groups, just like the Working Families Party that endorsed Zoran Mandani.
steve bannon
Talking about the schools, the schools of breeding gowns, I want to go back, Hunter College, Columbia College, but it also goes down to the high schools.
It goes into the elementary schools.
One of the things you've been fighting, your concerned moms in Manhattan, the schools, particularly, well, I shouldn't say particularly, the private schools are as bad, maybe even worse than public schools, but the public schools start indoctrinating these kids early on.
And this is why you're seeing people are saying, well, his solutions are crazy.
And he's a Marxist and a jihadist.
I said, you don't understand.
That's what's being, these kids are being indoctrinated all the time.
And it gets to Hunter College or Columbia and they become, or the college is over in Brooklyn, this is where they had so many people ringing door.
It was essentially the precinct strategy that we had people going door to door in Pennsylvania and Michigan and Wisconsin in the city of Manhattan.
He would have 10,000 or 20,000 canvassers out every day.
The DSA and the Working People's Party have really built an operation.
Remember, they won also, I think, up in Syracuse and Buffalo and a couple of other cities.
They've built a ground game under everybody's nose.
And Cuomo did the, he had every endorsement.
He had 40 million bucks.
He thought he punched every ticket.
He was up at one time by 40 points not that long ago.
He ran a classic steamroller campaign for the Democrats.
And at the end of the day, kind of got blown out.
But talk about the importance of the school system and the indoctrination of the kids here.
jackie toboroff
Yeah, everything always comes back to the educational complex.
So what happens is, is that in nursery school, they are seated with this anti-white, anti-Judeo-Christian American feelings, right?
This happens in nursery school.
Then in K through 12, it is solidified with DEI czars.
CRT is still very much in the curriculum.
And then what happens is to get into higher education, I mean, if you even just pull up any application, you have to explain how you have either been oppressed or have oppressed others.
So the entire thing from nursery school on through college is codified to hate white people, to hate the Judeo-Christian American ethos.
Now, this is very important.
New York City is now 40%, almost 50%, really, immigrants.
And this is per the MOIA, the mayor's Office of Immigration Affairs.
So we have people, almost 50% of New York City that have absolutely zero allegiance to America.
They've been taught to break our rules and then they go through our educational complex and it is jammed through.
It is crammed into their brains to hate Americans, specifically white people.
And what is very interesting about Zoran Mamdami is he's really doing very well because he is promoting the fact that the American dream is Unaffordable.
The catch-22 is the reason why the American dream is unaffordable is because of lunatic leftist policies like you know mass importing 20 to 30 million illegals.
Mayor Adams said during a congressional hearing that he blew through $9 billion on illegal aliens.
Then there's the climate crap.
Then there's the war in the Ukraine.
So all of these lunatic leftist things have actually really helped people like Zoran because he's right.
The American dream is unaffordable.
The interesting thing is they actually hate the American dream.
They like the Venezuelan nightmare.
steve bannon
Dave Ramaswamy, I want to join now because you are analyzing what you call the educational industrial complex.
And the educational industrial complex is the taproot.
It's the foundational element of these radicals.
These professors, the students, I mean, this is the, you know, kind of the village of the damned strategy that he put together.
Can you walk us through your assessment of the, what do you call it, the educational industrial complex, sir?
dave ramaswamy
Sure, Steve.
By the way, the Mamdani campaign is already working on signs for the future New York state-run grocery stores.
And one sign says, today is special.
Everything you want, tomorrow.
steve bannon
Very good.
dave ramaswamy
See, they're kind of replaying the Soviet Union.
steve bannon
I knew I'd get Dave Ramaswamy on, and the first thing he'd do would be crack a joke.
Dave Ramaswamy, the floor is yours.
unidentified
You're in the war room, brother.
dave ramaswamy
Steve, American universities, building on what has been said, have turned into Marxist madrasas.
You know, madrasas in the Islamic world are basically schools, and they're these indoctrination centers teaching children at very expensive costs, like $300,000 for a four-year degree in victim studies.
And this has created what I call what we are seeing play out in many parts of America and around the world, which is the two Americas that are at war today is field space, where things get built, grown, and fixed, and office space, where fortunes get conjured from screens and algorithms.
So the professors in academia inhabit the world of office space.
And so do the Wall Street hedge funds, the financial analysts.
And I want to take a minute to give a brief monologue on this.
And this connects to the educational industrial complex and what this underlying tension in America we see.
You know, the stuff you talk about, the war of populism versus globalism.
So meet Frank from Ohio, a third generation machinist, hands carved from real work, building precision parts that keep America running.
His grandpa built Sherman tanks.
His father built engines that powered Route 66.
Now meet Alex from New York City, manicured hands, glass tower, makes more in bonuses than Frank's house is worth.
What does Alex produce?
Nothing.
He's a middleman profiting off Frank's sweat.
And here's the theft.
Frank's dad, same job, supported his home family on one paycheck, owned his home free and clear, had a boat on the lake.
What changed?
Frank works harder now, needs more skill than ever.
Why can't he pay his bills?
August 15, 1971, they cut our dollar loose from gold, severed America from reality.
Wall Street got flooded with easy money while Main Street got foreclosure signs.
They shipped Frank's neighbor's job to China and told him, learn to code.
Code what?
Code the combine harvester?
Code the electrical grid.
You can't download a hamburger, folks.
You can't stream a house.
When Hurricane Katrina hit, when COVID broke supply chains, who saved America?
The app developers or the linemen?
The crypto traders or the truckers?
Field space saved us.
Field space always saves us.
We are done being exploited by digital profiteers.
Here's how we fight back.
Crush the trade deals that sold out American workers.
Build nuclear plants in Frank's backyard.
Good paying jobs that can't be shipped overseas.
Put data centers in rural America with local ownership so Frank's community gets the profits, not Silicon Valley.
Make America energy independent.
Stop begging dictators for energy when we can power our nation with American atoms and American workers.
America wasn't built by trading derivatives.
It was built by calloused hands and strong backs, built by the Franks, and it's going to be saved by the Franks.
The office space oligarchs had their run.
Now field space takes America back.
One nuclear plant, one data center, one locally owned energy project at a time, from the ground up, with bare hands, the way God intended.
The American dream isn't dead.
It's been hijacked by people who produce nothing and extract everything.
Time to take it back with real infrastructure, real jobs, and real ownership for real Americans.
steve bannon
So, Jackie Toboroff, if you take what Dave Ramaswamy just said and layer that over New York, if you look at Adams, the people that have voted for Adams historically, the people that voted for Sliwa, the people that, a part of the people that voted for Cuomo, you've got Dave Ramaswamy's group.
You have hardworking Americans that live in a very tough environment in New York City, but they far exceed these kind of the credentialed class kids that Mandami's been able to put together and do it through the schools.
Is there any possibility that that group that Dave just talked about, the kind of the backbone of America, which New York City has got legions of, can be pulled together around someone that can articulate that and say, hey, look, if this young guy takes over with the crowd around him, this credentialized class that knows nothing about the real world, it will be decades and decades before New York City's able to turn itself around and may never turn itself around, Jackie.
jackie toboroff
Yeah, firstly, I agree with what Dave said, but I think the bigger point here is that whether Zoran wins or loses, the real winner in this is the working family party, and that is what has to be crushed.
They are in 19 different states, not just New York, but New Jersey, Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Nevada, Maryland, Pennsylvania, just to name a few.
Yes, of course, we need to unify between a candidate.
We cannot have Cuomo, Adams, and Sliwa.
It is too confusing for voters, business leaders, real estate guys, they don't know who to get behind if this is the case.
We have too many egos in this pot, and we are really fighting not just for New York City and New York State, but it is really the nation writ large.
Once again, this Working Families Party is going to cut through the nation like a freaking prairie fire.
They are running young immigrant Muslims, and it is this mutant strain of edgy, cool Islamo-Marxism.
There is really, there's really nothing cool about it when you look at these numbers.
It is not sustainable.
There is no way to pay for any of this.
And again, their entire viewpoint is they don't like the American dream.
So when these billionaires threaten to leave New York City, you know, they don't seem that upset about it because they don't really understand that it is the billionaires that are funding everything.
But once again, they have been taught, they've been fed through a steady diet of the American educational complex that everything is the white construct and it is evil and the American dream is evil.
And the importation of these 20 to 30 million illegal alien invaders and then rammed through this educational complex of cultural and economic Marxists have made this an uphill battle.
steve bannon
Jackie, where do people, you're putting up stuff all the time, information on this.
You're putting up clips and writing an analysis.
Where do people go?
jackie toboroff
Please come to my Instagram.
It is Jacleen4NYC.
That is J-A-C-Q-U-E-L-I-N-E-F-O-R-N-Y-C.
And my Substack, Love a Paid subscriber, it is Supermoms Activated.
I will be posting all of the 19 states where the Working Family Parties is running candidates and everything that they're up to right now.
steve bannon
Just quickly, I think you put up something yesterday.
I think you put up something yesterday, Jackie, on Park Avenue.
Was that just a spontaneous, was that a spontaneous rally?
Or what was it?
I've never seen Park Avenue taking over like that.
What caused that?
And if you can put that up again, I want people to go to your Instagram and see it.
What caused that?
jackie toboroff
Yeah, firstly, I noticed something.
A friend of mine sent that to me.
I did not take the video.
It was yesterday.
It was on Park Avenue.
It was the most insane and terrifying sight because it was not the, quote, Kafiya Karens.
These were hardcore Islamists in total black shadors, flogging themselves.
It was terrifying.
And once again, this goes back to Zoran saying he is going to be economically punishing the whites.
Where did they go?
They went to Park Avenue in Manhattan.
Manhattan is the crown jewel.
New York City really rallies around Manhattan.
That is where our economic and business institutions are.
And that is exactly what they are looking to destroy.
Once again, it's a white construct.
They are looking to destroy capitalism.
They are 100% against capitalism.
steve bannon
Jackie, thank you.
I'll send everybody over to your site.
Thank you so much for spending time.
So Dave Ramaswamy, you've seen what President Trump's doing to the Ivy League schools, Harvard.
They're talking about how do we break this exact educational industrial complex that has caused this?
It must be broken.
Is President Trump's going after the Ivy Leagues and the public Ivies, as I've recommended, the president of UVA just resigned?
Is that a solution, or do you think there's deeper things we have to do?
dave ramaswamy
No, Steve, that's a great question.
I've thought about this issue a lot.
Of course, what President Trump is doing is well-timed and needed, especially defunding the social science departments of all Ivy Leagues and all private colleges.
I mean, like I said, you have students spending $300,000 a year, or sorry, over four years to learn statue toppling, something that the Taliban could teach them for $25 in a 30-minute Zoom class.
So defunding the social science departments and specifically removing federal subsidies from the social sciences.
And Steve, there's actually a precedent for this in both Japan and Australia.
They have completely removed federal funding for non-STEM majors.
I mean, students are free to learn Bosnian basket weaving, but let them do it on their own dime and not the dime of hardworking plumbers, carpenters, and truckers.
So that should be top priority.
Remove the federal subsidy for non-STEM majors.
And more importantly, put more universities on the hook for some of their students who have massive loans and can't pay it off.
Like at this point, universities don't have skin in the game.
So by taxing endowments, we can ensure the incentives of students who are studying all kinds of majors and the university is aligned.
Right now, there's no alignment.
steve bannon
If you want to see, Dave, hang around.
Could you through the break?
Folks, you're seeing this manifest itself in the streets of New York City.
If you don't think this is going to have an impact on the United States of America, that hey, I live in Arizona, I live in Montana or I live in Alabama.
New York City is the financial capital of the world.
It is the greatest city in the United States of America.
You add Chicago to that, you add Los Angeles to that, you've got a problem.
And this is my point about the Third World War.
The Third World War is here in this nation.
You know, people, you know, the Tel Aviv Levin and Ted Cruz, all these guys beating themselves in the chest, no.
We're not going to get engaged, and we stopped, had President Trump's back, and no regime change, driven by the United States of America, sucked into it by Israel.
Not going to happen.
Not going to happen.
The fight is here on the streets of America.
Go to Jackie Torborough's Instagram and you tell me that's not true.
You see the photos yesterday, the eclipse yesterday of New York City, you'll be shocked.
We don't need to go to Tehran to have a problem.
The problem's here and it's festering.
And Dave Ramaswamy and Jackie Torbooth are 1,000% correct.
I want to thank Birch Gold for being our sponsor, particularly Philip Patrick and the entire team heading to Rio for the Rio reset.
Short commercial break.
China, Ireland, next.
alex jones
War Room.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K. Van.
steve bannon
As you can tell from the fight that we've had all day on this big, beautiful bill, and particularly these things of the gap, we started with Dr. Stephen Muron, the chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers.
He's walking through the model that President Trump and Scott Besant, others are working off of, which shows much more growth.
There's still going to be a gap, there's no doubt.
I mean, I think even Bessant and the team would say, best case, probably a trillion-dollar deficit, which he thinks is sustainable.
That's 3% of GDP.
The 6% not being sustainable.
Long story short, if the IRS says you owe them money, they are going to move heaven and earth to get it.
Now, what do you do?
First off, you just can't put the letter in the drawer or not file or continue to file late.
That will catch up with you.
What you need to do is talk to the folks at TaxNetworkUSA, T-N-U-S-A.com, or go to 800-958-1000.
Tell them Steve Bannon sent you.
You'll get a totally free assessment and analysis of your current situation.
They've served, they've solved a billion dollars of tax problems.
Yours is not that big, but to you it's huge.
Make sure you get a workaround today.
Go talk to these folks and stop the anxiety.
Remember, just confront your fear on this.
Engage these folks and they will help you out.
But you just can't put the drawer.
You put the letter in the drawer, it's just going to metastasize.
You cannot do that, and don't do it.
800-958-1000.
The advisors at Tax Network USA.
Eddie Hobbs, you were on Saturday.
My phone blew up.
People loved it.
You've heard the problems we have here.
They're in the streets.
Dave Ramaswamy's been doing this huge analysis of the educational industrial complex.
One thing the audience told me and feedback I got from the engine room on Saturday afternoon with you on is saying, hey, those problems sound like the problems we've had here.
Are the Irish people finally awakening to it?
unidentified
Eddie Hobbes, the floor is yours, sir.
eddie hobbs
Yes, but we have a bigger problem in the sense that to try and wake up the mass in the middle, we need to be able to break the wall that has been built around them by the state and by the power of the state broadcaster and by the largesse that the state puts into mainstream media, which means that we have no fort estate.
And that's what Counterpoint is doing, Steve.
And that's why we're reaching out to Irish America as well, to let them know what's going on and to look for support as well, obviously.
So that's the task in front of us.
But you're right.
We're trying to get people to understand the interconnections.
We have a huge problem in the housing market.
I mean, nearly one in four houses, Steve, new bills, are buy to rent by funds that have been allowed in by the establishment to gobble up the market.
Highly educated Irish people, I mean, the best of the talent is leaving the country because they can't afford to live in it.
They can't afford to get a house.
I mean, 30 years ago, about 70% of Irish people aged 25 to 34 owned their own homes, owned them.
Whereas now two-thirds of the same age group are living at home, aged 25 to 34.
And that's just an abysmal place to be.
Meanwhile, we are, as you know, as I said on Saturday, we've handed over border control to bureaucrats in Brussels, which means that we are now importing from North Africa largely and from the Middle East, people we don't know anything about, young, you know, of varying education levels, a lot lower than what's leaving.
So we're actually cycling out our best talent and we're bringing in what is arguably much, much lower.
And we're just putting them up in these centers without any plan.
What we'll be doing here on Counterpoint is we will be putting into juxtaposition the Danish system versus the Irish system.
And the differences are stark.
I mean, stark.
And it's quite clear from the Danes have done some very good data, Steve, on the non-Western migrant population in terms of guilty crimes over the last 10 years, as well as in terms of the prison population.
And it's quite clear that with less than 12% of the population, they're committing nearly over 40% of rapes and nearly the same amount of attempted murders.
And murders.
I mean, this is pretty stark data.
And it's basically telling Western Europe, look, you can't mix these cultures together without creating these kinds of problems.
And that's why the Swedes are in so much trouble, where one of the head of security chiefs there a couple of years ago described it as a low-level civil war.
So, I mean, we have that problem.
We also have the problem of we have a massive problem with mortgage fraud, where a huge amount of Irish mortgages after the collapse were sold on to different players, vulture funds and one kind or another.
And we now know that most of that was built on misrepresentation in the Irish courts with the judiciary scenes turning a blind eye.
All that is going to unwrap as well, and that's going to have an impact.
And so we have an acute problem here.
But unlike the United States, where they have you and many others, and the Trump administration, and J.D. Vance, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., all barking away about the same point, we're behind that.
We need to try and create the interconnection so people can see it's not just about migration, it's across the divide, housing, the debt fraud, as well as the indoctrination of Irish children with pretty awful affirmation ideology and the introduction to sexual facts at extraordinary young ages.
And these documents, by the way, being kept in school and not allowed to go home to the family, which under Irish Constitution is the primary educator.
So we're battling here on all fronts to get people to wake up to what's going on.
But it will happen and it is happening and it's going to start coming apart from the establishment.
unidentified
It's just a question of time.
steve bannon
Let me, because people get red pill, people get awakened later.
But now this is why our Trump movement's building momentum because more and more people, the scales are falling off their eyes.
Part of that came during the pandemic.
Part of this is the Make America Healthy Again movement merging with MAGA and the parents of the parents that are engaged now with school boards and about their children's education.
They saw this kind of neo-Marxist training propaganda.
When we look at these rallies that are taking place throughout Ireland and these demonstrations taking place in the streets in Ireland, is that the first indication that you're going to have the potential for a mass awakening here, sir?
eddie hobbs
Yes, it is indeed.
But it needs greater momentum and much greater depth and width to it in order to create a kind of an emerald revolution.
Let's just call it that.
So that the actual political and permanent establishment and everybody else that's kind of turning a blind eye to all of this gets completely rocked to the bone.
But that's possible.
I mean, it was quite clear here on this side that when Trump won and the type of administration for me anyway, as somebody that's changed my mind on him over the last, so since version one, I mean, when you look at what they're doing and the points of attack that they've gone at, it's quite clear that there's a big momentum shift going on in the United States of America and that this was going to blow across the North Atlantic eventually and have significant change in Europe.
But Europe is a very serious problem.
I mean, J.D. Vance nailed it.
I mentioned that on Saturday when he took on the Europeans about free speech.
And Ireland now is under pressure to try and bring our standards up to the extraordinary crackdown on what the establishment would term misinformation, disinformation in Europe.
It's like this is very undemocratic.
And so all that fight is ahead of us.
But we're up for it.
I can tell you that.
It's just a question of how long it's going to take before we get that mass movement onto the street.
And when we look across the Atlantic at our cousins, the Irish American diaspora and the United States in general, and what's going on over there, and you look past the personalities and you look at the core policy that's being enacted, it's quite clear that there's a tremendous battle going on between the forces of freedom on the one hand and totalitarianism on the other.

Do it ourselves.
Forrest.
Zhu.
Forrest, a question I asked you over the weekend because I spent a couple of days up there and with the, you know, they got the great, you got the great team at the new federal state of China Media.
Is the black hand of the Chinese Communist Party partly in back of what we're seeing on the streets of New York right now in this whole Mondambi situation, sir?
forrest zhou
100%.
The previous guest mentioned about ideology and all the teachings in the school.
It's all communist or socialism.
What happens on New York Street is what really happening.
If you think about what happens in Columbia University, which I graduated from, it's completely socialism.
And all the students, you know, Chinese Communist Party founded a lot of institutions in those universities.
They pushed their propagandas, they pushed their ideologies in those universities.
This is purely CCP's propaganda and their plan, which they executed for decades.
And all the young kids, it was very easy to be influenced by those ideologies.
And also, don't forget, Chinese Communist Party organized all those trips, organized all the young students, goes to China, asks them to see all the big cities.
But what they really cannot see is what happens in Xinjiang and Tibet.
All the inhuman activities happens in those areas.
Also, the rural areas where more than 600 Million people don't even have food and don't have only less than $1,000 income in those areas.
Those are the situations in China where the foreign students cannot see when they go to China because the Chinese Communist Party controls media, controls all the travel plans for you, even the hotel you're living in.
Those students won't know the truth.
They won't know the fact.
steve bannon
So, Farris, Columbia is one of the biggest, as we've laid Jackie out in this thing, Columbia Hunter College, they're the feeder groups for this.
When you were sitting in the classrooms understanding the evils of the CCP, I mean, how could you sit there?
Were the young kids, the rest of them, being easily indoctrinated by the professors, sir?
forrest zhou
Yes, 100%, because now the new generation lives on the social media.
That's why we keep saying you and new federal state of China keep telling people the media has more power than the nuclear weapon, because it's easily to manipulate and influence the young generations.
The professor, especially the young kids, they trust and respect their professors.
They listen to them, especially when the Chinese control the mainstream media and the propaganda keep promoting the Chinese is greater and the Chinese system is greater than the democratic U.S. system.
So that's what the students learn and see on social media, the TikTok, all the YouTubers.
You know, there is so many YouTuber influenced, they were invited by the Chinese Communist Party, go to China.
They can make a lot of money and also have a lot of honey traps there.
And then they are buyout by the Chinese Communist Party and promote their agenda and their propaganda.
That's why the student and young generations easily being manipulated and brainwashed by them.
steve bannon
You saw the fact that the Asians, particularly Chinese, were tending towards more Megan Trump.
But in places like Chinatown and places that have not integrated into American society, huge turnout for Mandabi.
Do you see a direct involvement by the Chinese Communist Party in trying to assist this takeover of New York City, sir?
forrest zhou
Absolutely.
We see this, you know, a couple of days ago, we have this indictment, I believe, for the New York state governor's assistant, and a couple of them, the situation.
The Chinese Communist Party, when there is a commercial group and also a Chinese group, they always utilize, even in Columbia University, the student union, they will fund those student union and to promote their propaganda.
They promote all the activities and organize them.
Let's see if the Chinese official visits New York City, they will organize this student, pay them to go to welcome those officials and all the activities they support.
The CCP definitely behind a lot of activities in New York City, that's for sure.
steve bannon
Forrest, last thing.
I want to get to the economy of China.
I'll do that in the next couple of days because I want to take more time to develop that with you.
But there's a lot of rumors out there that Xi is ill.
This is one of the reasons he's not going to Rio, that he's losing his grip.
He's trying to take over the military.
Just give me a couple of minutes.
Is that a essentially you feel like a fantasy right now that he's losing his grip?
He has an illness.
There's been a revolt in the People's Liberation Army, or that other factions are trying to overthrow him in the summer.
They always go for the summer conference, that he'll be overthrown there.
And I think that takes place starting in mid-July to August.
Is that a fantasy right now, or do you think that's grounded in reality?
forrest zhou
That's definitely a fantasy.
That's a disinformation and false information.
And look, looking back over the years, the Chinese Communist Party has achieved absolute success in its global propaganda warfare because they control the mainstream media, because they control all the media outsourced, so they can feed them, whatever they want, they control.
Like look at about the pandemic, they can control the media to cover up the virus origin.
But when we talk about this news regarding whether it's Xi Jinping's health condition or whether he's not going to the summit, this is all disinformation because they use this as a political warfare which used for this their playbook that's used by Mao Zedong.
He disappeared from the public eye and hiding for a while and all the information disinformation and then all of a sudden he reappears with a more dramatic political movement like cultural revolution.
This is what Xi Jinping is doing.
Let me tell you that.
Xi Jinping right now is laser focused on three things.
The number one thing is the Taiwan.
He's preparing all the manpower and all the resources prepared for recovering Taiwan because he has this mindset want to go down in the history as the man who finished the mission, which is the reunification.
Number two, he's working on the September 3rd, the military parade, as you know.
This is after the Iran attack.
He wants to show the world that the Chinese, the Communist Party, PLA, still have muscle to compete against the Western country.
That's number two he's working on.
Number three, he's working with Putin together to further weaken the US dollar, which is their, again, this is the big play they are working on.
So I think right now we have to realize in China, even his condition, his health condition is top secret.
No other Western media or just a regular journalist can learn this.
So if there is any information, you probably, they won't distract you.
They want to deceive you and they want to take more time, gain more time to prepare for their next big move.
That's what they are doing right now.
steve bannon
Forrest, new federal state, where do they go to get to the show, the social media, all of it, sir?
forrest zhou
Yeah, they can find us on NFSC on Gather, NFSC Speaks, and NFSC TV on Gather.
steve bannon
Thank you, Forrest.
Fantastic analysis.
You heard Forrest talk about the three strategies.
Number one, the Taiwan, you know, putting Taiwan back together.
Two's the military, which you'll have to use on the Taiwan situation or like three was the dollar.
That's the Rio reset.
