| This is the primal 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 that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And where do people like that go to share the big line? | |
| MAGA Media. | ||
| I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. | ||
| Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? | ||
| If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Saturday, 23 August, Year Overlord 2025. | ||
| Thank you for sticking around for the second hour of the morning edition of The War Room. | ||
| I guess on Saturday, we only have our morning edition, my favorite show of the week. | ||
| Jack Basopic is informing me that Russian media is now talking about Taj Gil selling kamikaze drones to Maduro. | ||
| As we've talked about, I think we broke this. | ||
| There is a Marine Amphibious Group. | ||
| The Iwo Jima's amphibious group has been attached to Southcom. | ||
| CENTCOM runs the Middle East. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Indo-Pacific Command runs the Pacific in the Indian Ocean. | |
| Southcom controls is the Americans' defense from the Mexican border all the way down through Latin America. | ||
| Northcom is the continental United States. | ||
|
unidentified
|
When you hear that, you've got 4,000 Marines and sailors down of the, I think, the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Force. | |
| You've got the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group. | ||
| I mean, we're putting some hardware down there. | ||
| It's not just the troops on the border and what we've talked about, interdiction into the cartels. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And folks, take your number two pencil out. | |
| We're going kinetic. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know if it's Maduro. | |
| I don't know if it's Central America, the cartels, or it's the Mexican cartels. | ||
| I would bet we may start in Mexico. | ||
| Alex Jones, if you haven't been following Alex Jones, doing an incredible job of this. | ||
| Taj, when you hear Maduro's, because these drones are as lethal as you get, you hear about kamikaze drones against those anfibs. | ||
| What are your thoughts? | ||
| Don't they dangerous, Steve? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're very, very dangerous. | |
| The drone warfare got very popular in Iraq, in Missoula, Iraq in 2014, 2015. | ||
| And then Ukraine and Russia took their drone warfare to the next level the last couple years. | ||
| I mean, the evolution of the battlefield is crazy now with the drones. | ||
|
unidentified
|
In electronic warfare, you can jam the drones. | |
| And then, so now they've won up that. | ||
| Now they're running fiber optic cable on these drones. | ||
| And if you look at pictures of the battlefield in Ukraine, they're just covered with fiber optic cable everywhere. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It looks like spider web. | |
| So these things are getting harder and harder to defend. | ||
| So the jamming them doesn't work if they're using fiber optic cable. | ||
| So they're using nuts and everything. | ||
| But if they use these drones against the Marines out on the amphibious ready group, that's a very dangerous situation. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| But I don't think Maduro and his guys have these super high-tech fiber optic cable control drones like they do in Ukraine and Russia. | ||
| Hopefully not. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But that's taking things to the next level. | |
| And, you know, our DOD is, through DARPA, we have crazy technology. | ||
| So we're always monitoring all the battlefields and we're trying to stay one step ahead of everybody. | ||
| But drone warfare is nasty. | ||
| No, I was going to actually bring up about Gaza too. | ||
| A lot of these buildings that are hard to clear, like I said, They put machine gun nests and all that stuff in there. | ||
| You can actually fly drones in there and get a bird's eye view of what's going on in the building before you go in and clear it. | ||
| Or if it's too crazy in there, you don't clear it. | ||
| Like I said, you just bulldoze it or blow the building up. | ||
| It's not worth going in there for enemy combatants. | ||
| And the drone warfare is the next evolution of the battlefield. | ||
| It's nasty. | ||
| The Potomac battlefield will get nasty. | ||
| There was a number of sources. | ||
| Now, you got to remember, a lot of these are coming from Russia. | ||
| You got to take it what it's worth, but it dovetails into President Trump. | ||
| And President Trump all the time keeps talking about the casualties. | ||
| He's talking about 5,000 Ukrainians a day. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Russian hack said 1.7 million Ukrainians dead or wounded, including 625,000 this year. | |
| And you notice the media is not doing as they were at the beginning of this when they were all cheerleaning. | ||
| You don't see a lot of reports from the front lines anymore, Ukraine, because it is getting pounded. | ||
| And I think Putin said the other day, told him, said, hey, look, here's the thing. | ||
| We keep all the territory we got. | ||
| You can't join NATO. | ||
| And oh, by the way, there won't be any security guarantees from anybody that's not like the United Nations Security Council, the five permanent members, which would include Russia and China. | ||
| So it doesn't look like any ceasefire anytime soon. | ||
| Taj, I've taken up too much of your time this morning. | ||
| I want to thank you one more time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Where do people go? | |
| You've gone from a warrior at the tip of the spear now to an entrepreneur at the tip of the spear. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Where do people go to get your great coffee, sir? | |
| The website is warpath.coffee and use promo code war room 20 off. | ||
| That's for the war room posse. | ||
| Like I said, it's the best coffee out there, like bar none. | ||
| You don't need milk and sugar to hide the taste of burnt coffee. | ||
| 90% of the coffee sold out there is burnt, and they burn it on purpose because they use cheap beans and they use beans from all around the world and they burn it to make it all taste the same. | ||
| That's why they serve it with milk and sugar. | ||
| So you can drink our coffee straight black and actually enjoy the taste of the coffee. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now I'm going to give you some background on this bag on the packaging that Taj did because Taj realizes, you know, as I tell Taj in the Marines all the time, I'm a real naval officer, surface warfare officer in the lineage of Admiral Nelson and the great, you know, Bull Halsey and Admiral Nimitz. | |
| So what Taj did when he did my Mariner's blend, because that was going to be the dark roast. | ||
| Of course he does. | ||
| He puts Navy Seals, he puts the frogman coming up on it, just made by Navy Seals just up in my grill. | ||
| The coffee's unbelievable. | ||
| It's the champagne of coffee. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You got to drink it black. | |
| Taj, we'll let you get back to the family. | ||
| Thank you so much for sharing part of your Saturday morning with us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we'll be calling on you as the IDF looks like they're going to be rolling into Gaza City. | |
| And folks, this is going to be Fallujah number three. | ||
| It's going to be as bloody and tough as any battle in modern warfare. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You got the Ukraine, bloody as anything in World War I or World War II. | |
| And now you're going to have something like Fallujah take place to get if you're going to take out the Muslim Brotherhood dead enders, it's going to be door to door. | ||
| Jenny Beth Martin, you're on a bus tour. | ||
| Everybody's raving about it. | ||
| The SAVE Act, you are fighting the great fight. | ||
| The only American, this wild concept, the only American citizens get to vote. | ||
|
unidentified
|
President Trump is a big fan of what you're doing. | |
| Where are you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Where's the bus? | |
| Where's it going to go? | ||
| How can people meet you, greet you, and celebrate what you guys are doing? | ||
| Well, Steve, thanks so much for having me on. | ||
| I am in Corpus Christi, Texas right now. | ||
| We are looking out at the Bay of Corpus Christi, which flows into the Gulf of America. | ||
| And we are on this only citizens vote bus tour to get Congress to pass the SAVE Act. | ||
| Now, of course, the House has already passed it twice, once last Congress, once this Congress, but we need the Senate to take action. | ||
| And our goal is to get it attached to must-pass legislation in September as they're dealing with government funding. | ||
| We began on Monday in California. | ||
| We're in Texas today. | ||
| This coming Monday, we'll be in Baton Rouge. | ||
| We'll head on to North Carolina next week. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Over Labor Day, we reposition the bus and begin in Wisconsin and then end in Washington, D.C. on September 10th. | |
| And I invite all of your audience to check out where we're going to be. | ||
| If you're in a state where we are, join us in that state and then make plans to come to Washington, D.C. on September 10th. | ||
| We're delivering petitions to Capitol Hill, and we are also going to be having a rally on Capitol Hill on September 10th. | ||
| They can get information at demandonlycitizensvote.com. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And Steve, right now I've got with me Suzanne Guggenheim, who is with the Coastal Bend Tea Party. | |
| And then I have Pamela Woods and Kim, who are with the Election Integrity Project of New Aces County, Texas. | ||
| And they are all very excited to be here. | ||
| We want only citizens to vote. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We want to pass the SAVE Act. | |
| And they're also very excited because the Texas legislature has now passed the redistricting maps and they've moved on to the governor's desk. | ||
| What do you guys think about that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're very excited about that one, and they're very excited to be here today. | |
| We're trying to make a difference with election integrity, and we're trying to help get one of President Trump's executive orders or part of one of those orders codified in law. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So that's what we're doing. | |
| People can check it out at demandonlycitizensvote.com. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So Jenny Beth, ask that you've got a lot of Tea Party patriots, great grassroots activists, war room posse, but ask them, why are they such haters? | |
| What's the big deal about having foreigners and illegal aliens vote in our elections? | ||
| Why are they such haters? | ||
| Well, we want to make sure we don't have that, obviously. | ||
| And you know what's really important, Steve? | ||
| Suzanne right here, she was born on D-Day in Paris or in France in World War II. | ||
| And the doctor told her mother that the Americans had landed in Normandy before he told her mother that she had a girl. | ||
| This is a woman who understands she has fought fascism, she's fought socialism, she's fighting, she's fought communism, and she is a legal immigrant who followed the correct path, and she wants to ensure that we have only citizens voting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And if you follow the path and you're here legally and you become a citizen, of course we welcome you to exercise that right and to vote in our elections. | |
| So we, of course, are not those haters that the left says, but the left, look, Steve, over 80% of Americans, 87% of Americans only want citizens to vote in American elections for president, senator, and Congress. | ||
| And over 80% of Americans, again at 86%, 87% want to require proof of citizenship to register to vote. | ||
| So when Congress and those Democrats and the Senate who are preventing this bill from moving forward don't take action, they are defying their constituency. | ||
| And I don't understand why they're doing it, except they are up to no good and they want to continue to be up to no good. | ||
| Just walk us, just walk us through the basics, the basics of the two or three things that are in the SAVE Act that you and your compadres there think are most important to implement. | ||
| The most important thing is that it requires proof of citizenship to register to vote. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now remember, in Arizona, they require proof of citizenship to register to vote all the way up and down from president all the way down to local school board or their lowest level elected office. | |
| They were sued and the Supreme Court said they had to accept the Motor Voter Voter Registration Form, which simply has a checkbox saying that where you affirm you are a citizen, but it does not require proof of citizenship. | ||
| So now in the state of Arizona, if you want to vote in state and local elections, you get a ballot and you have proved your citizenship. | ||
| If you have not proven, you can give in proof of citizenship, you still get a ballot for president, senate, and Congress. | ||
| And when I heard about that, I thought it was the most absurd thing I've ever heard. | ||
| I appreciate the fact that the Supreme Court did not make law out of whole cloth from the bench. | ||
| That's what we want. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But now it's time for Congress to fix this crazy loophole and make sure that we're not just checking a box, but that we affirm and show proof of citizenship when we register to vote. | |
| So we're cleaning up the motor voter law, and that's what's in the SAVE Act. | ||
| I want to hold you through the break, but just one question before I go. | ||
| We got about a minute. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The left, the reason the Senate doesn't take it up and MSNBC and CNN say constantly that by demanding that proof of citizenship, that you're nativist, you're racist, you're unfair, you're mean. | |
| What say you, ma'am? | ||
| I say we've heard this for the last 16 years. | ||
| They did it to President Trump. | ||
| They've done it to the Tea Party. | ||
| I'm sick of that. | ||
| The Democrat Party is a party of projection. | ||
| Whatever they're saying that we are, it's what they think about themselves when they look in the mirror. | ||
| We know we are law-abiding Americans who love our fellow citizens regardless of where they're from and regardless of their skin color. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we welcome people to this country. | |
| We just want them to do so legally. | ||
| We're going to return in a moment to Corpus Christi, Texas, and some real American citizens right there that are fighting to make sure that only American citizens vote in elections. | ||
| Wow, what a crazy idea. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Who thought of that? | |
| Incredible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's the backbone of our country right there, folks. | |
| That's where we're winning, and that's why we're going to continue to win on a Saturday morning in Corpus Christi. | ||
| Didn't get any better now. | ||
| What a great town. | ||
| What great folks in the great state of Texas. | ||
| Speaking of great state of Texas, Patriot Mobile, 972-Patriot. | ||
| By the way, when you call, tell them you're from War Room, you're part of the posse, get a free month. | ||
| Best phone service out there, the best people. | ||
| Stop giving your money to people that hate you. | ||
| Make sure you give your money to people that can provide great services and products, but also support you and support your values. | ||
| That's how we're turning this country around day by day and fight by fight. | ||
| The maximalist strategy. | ||
| All or nothing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're not having any more half measures. | |
| Short commercial break. | ||
| We're a return to Corpus Christi, Texas. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the Save Act bus with the Tea Party Patriots en route to the nation's capital. | |
| Short break. | ||

| Steve, thanks for having me on again. | ||
| I don't know if this is big news or something. | ||
| First of all, I appreciate the people out there voting for Only Americans Can Vote, like super awesome movement. | ||
| But one of the big things that's going on right now is that snap cuts are happening. | ||
| We're looking at a 230 billion, probably plus dollar loss. | ||
| And the nice thing about My Patriot Supply is that we try and make it affordable for everyone. | ||
| I mean, we're talking like $3 a meal, right, for dried food. | ||
| It's awesome. | ||
| MypatriotSupply.com. | ||

| It's, as you can see on your screen there, which is really cool. | ||
| That doubles your power. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Get ahead. | ||
| You know, with all these hurricanes, tornadoes, you've got power outages. | ||
| You don't know what's going to hit you. | ||

| You've got to be ahead of the program as they're trying to do here in the war room and get you, hey, the information so you can think downrange. | ||
| It's all about thinking downrange and being prepared. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's why My Patriot Supply is the best in the business. | |
| What's the number? | ||
| I'd love the fact that you guys have customer service, consultants, advisors. | ||
|
unidentified
|

| So give them a call. | ||
| Tell them Jake Seawolf says hi. | ||
| Flood the phones this weekend. | ||
| That's for you, War Room posse. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
| Let's work them. | ||
| Let's work them, brother. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you for the shout out for that. | ||
| Thank you, Courtney Chateau. | ||
| I appreciate you and Corpus Christi. | ||
| Appreciate you too, sir. | ||
| Best company out there in this space, My Patriot Supply. | ||
| They kind of founded the industry and they're the industry leaders. | ||
| Let's go back to Corpus Christi, Texas, Jenny Beth Martin, founder of the Tea Party Patriots on the Save Act bus. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Introduce us. | |
| Let's introduce us to some of the folks down there in Corpus Christi. | ||
| Jenny Beth. | ||
| Okay, Steve. | ||
| So this is Suzanne Guggenheim. | ||
| She's been with Tea Party Patriots since the very beginning. | ||
| Suzanne, tell me just a quick history about you and why you're out here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I'm out here because, in fact, we've been fighting for the last 50, 16 years, in fact, to get our country back. | |
| And for the last four years, people even went to jail because they dared to say that we did not have fair election and that there was fraud in our election. | ||
| This has to stop. | ||
| We want our country back. | ||
| And for this, we need the SAVAC to pass. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And then next, we have Pamela Woods, who's with the Election Integrity Project. | ||
| Pamela, why are you out here? | ||
| And what have you been doing to help pass the SAVACT? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, our group, Election Integrity Project of Noasis County, has been involved in elections since for five years now. | |
| And we're also very involved with the Only Citizens Vote Coalition every Thursday and involved with all kinds of activities. | ||
| We have been working hard to get these petitions signed so that we could deliver this to you, Jenny Beth. | ||
| Today, we've got 200 plus, I'm not sure exactly how many citizens here in Noasis County that have signed this petition that are demanding our U.S. Senate pass this legislation. | ||
| We need proof of citizenship. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's not hard. | |
| It's a source that is very important so that we can qualify that a person who's voting is in fact a citizen and their vote is important. | ||
| And Steve, if other people want to fill out the petition, they can go to onlycitizensvotepetition.com. | ||
| And for our tour information, it's demand only citizens vote. | ||
| And now we've got B, who is a legal immigrant who's become a citizen, right? | ||
| Yes, absolutely. | ||
| And so, what do you think of showing proof of citizenship to vote? | ||
| If I register to vote, if I come legal, so is everybody, no question about it. | ||
| And like constitutions say, everybody by the citizen vote. | ||
| And I follow step legally. | ||
| My parents immigrated 54 years ago from socialism communism. | ||
| And we reunited a few years later. | ||
| And we demand to be only citizen vote. | ||
| And then, Steve, this man right here, his name is Sean. | ||
| He's part of the Election Integrity Project, and he also is a huge War Room fan. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| And the deal is: if we are going to have a country, we must have the concept of citizenship. | ||
| And the most basic right of a citizen is to vote. | ||
| And that right must be safeguarded so people who want to be citizens in the future have something to look forward to, as well as we who are citizens express our basic right to vote and do it without fear of our rights being taken away by folks breaking the law. | ||
| Perfect. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then, Steve, of course, War Room Posse knows that we've got a lot to do when it comes to election integrity, not just proof of citizenship for registering to vote. | |
| We're focused on that with the SAVE Act because that bill is already written and it should be low-hanging fruit for us to get passed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But this lady right here, whose name is Annie, is going to tell you some of the other things that they want down here in Corpus Christi and, frankly, around the whole country. | |
| Yes, it's important that we keep our republic. | ||
| And in order to do that, we need voter integrity. | ||
| So let's go down the list. | ||
| We want only citizens, one-day voting, vote in person, voter ID, paper ballots. | ||
| And of course, let's ban the mail-ins. | ||
| It's pretty simple. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Pretty simple. | |
| And even President Trump was talking about that in the Truth Social post that he had on Monday. | ||
| We're not stopping. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're going to get this bill passed into law. | |
| We need everyone in the public. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Jenny Beth, just go back to the sign right there with everything on there. | ||
| That punch list. | ||
| Is that punch list all in the SAVE Act? | ||
| When she walks, goes down there because the audience loves that. | ||
| Yeah, so it's not, this is not all in the SAVE Act. | ||
| What's in the SAVE Act is going to be the proof of citizenship to register to vote. | ||
| All of these other things are additional bills we're going to have to get passed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And if Congress can get the bills written so that we can attach those to must-pass legislation in September, we need to get that done as well. | |
| We worked on this specific portion because the bill is already written. | ||
| But I'm just like the rest of the war room posse. | ||
| There's a lot more work to do than just the SAVE Act. | ||
| So we're focused on this because we know over 80%. | ||
| Steve, it's practically 90%, 87% of Americans agree with us on this issue. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we want to get this done. | |
| And you know as well as I do, success begets success. | ||
| But I think all of these things should be attached to must-pass legislation as we head into September before we get to our new fiscal year. | ||
| We've got to get Congress though to write those bills so that we can get it passed. | ||
| Let's go to the mail-in ballots. | ||
| President Trump, by the way, he believes everything on that chart is in his punch list plus the mail-in ballots. | ||
| We have to force through the SAVE Act. | ||
| We got to get the Senate, and that's going to be a bear, but I agree with you. | ||
| When you say attach these to must-pass legislation, that's a sophisticated strategy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Walk our audience through what do you mean by that? | |
| Okay, so what we mean is that there are bills that members of Congress will pass whether, and they'll vote for it. | ||
| And they feel like if they don't vote for it, negative things are going to happen. | ||
| Their constituents will be angry. | ||
|
unidentified
|
For instance, most of the people on Capitol Hill never want a government shutdown. | |
| Now, you know, there are times when I want a government shutdown, but most of the politicians don't. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So they are going to pass legislation to prevent that from happening. | |
| And they don't even care sometimes what's in it as long as it avoids that shutdown because they know that would be, or they think that would be negative for their constituents. | ||
| So we say if they're going to be passing legislation anyway that Democrats are going to have to vote on, then let us get the things we want attached to it as well. | ||
| That's what's called must-pass legislation. | ||
|
unidentified
|
In September, they're going to have to vote to fund the government. | |
| And it'll either be an appropriations bill or a continuing resolution, maybe an omnibus, some sort of funding mechanism bill. | ||
| And we're saying attach this to that bill. | ||
| And it's very important. | ||
| The September is important because on September 30th, the 2025 fiscal year for the federal government ends on October 1st, 2026, FY 2026 for the United States of America begins on October 1st. | ||
| And so we are trying to get it done when they come back from this August recess or August break that they're on. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Ask your crowd right there. | ||
| Just ask, I just want to see a vote of hands. | ||
| How many are prepared to shut down the government in order to put this into an omnibus or a minibus or any kind of funding that would keep the government open? | ||
| How many? | ||
| He wants to know how many of you would want to shut down the government to get this attached to must-pass legislation. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There you have it, Steve. | |
| But the fact is, this shouldn't be something that shuts the government down. | ||
| The Democrats know full well 87% of Americans agree on this. | ||
| And they're sitting there trying to spin up whatever they are to try to say no to this. | ||
| But we're going up and down this country, meeting people in hotels, meeting people at restaurants. | ||
| We explain what we're doing. | ||
| These aren't political activists we're talking about. | ||
| It's just everyday Americans. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And they just go, you have to do a bus tour to get that done? | |
| They're shocked that we can't get even this done. | ||
| Even in deep blue states like California, people are just like, yeah, that's just common sense. | ||
| Why aren't we doing that? | ||
| So if Democrats cause a shutdown over this, they do so at their own peril. | ||
| Jay Beth, hang on. | ||
| We're going to take a break. | ||
| We're going to return to Corpus Christi, Texas. | ||
| In fact, we're going to go from Corpus Christi when we return to Rome, the eternal city with Ben Harnwell talking about they're dropping the hammer in Greece about mass invasion or what they call mass migration. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| Back to Corpus Christi in a moment. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Wars and the rumors of war, and you heard the head of the Federal Reserve deal with that in Jackson Hole the other day. | ||
| Talked about the central bankers. | ||
| Right now, the central banks, one thing I will tell you they are doing, besides printing tons of money in each individual country to debase their own currency, they're also buying gold at record rates. | ||
| So ask yourself that. | ||
| They got the printing machine on one hand and they're buying gold with the other. | ||
| Maybe you ought to understand why they're doing it. | ||
| The way they do that, go to birchgold.com slash bannon, the end of the dollar empire. | ||
| It's all free, seven free installments. | ||
| Number eight and nine, we're working on. | ||
| We're also working on a print edition of this book. | ||
| Make sure you go get it today and talk to Philip Patrick and the team. | ||
| It ain't the daily price of gold. | ||
| It's what drives gold's value. | ||
| Understand that you understand a lot of not just about finance, but how the world works. | ||
| Go check it out today. | ||

Jenny Beth Martin, let's return to Corpus Christi, Texas. | |
| Jenny Beth, I want to thank all the great patrons down there. | ||
| Just absolutely amazing. | ||
| But can you walk us through one more time? | ||
|
unidentified
|
The bus tour. | |
| We're going to be following you every step of the way. | ||
| So just give us a, let's get that schedule up. | ||
| Where are you going from here? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay, we are going to go from here to Baton Rouge. | |
| Then we'll be in Montgomery, Alabama, Atlanta, Georgia, Greenville, South Carolina, and then Raleigh, North Carolina. | ||
| Over Labor Day weekend, we reposition the bus and we'll be in Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Pennsylvania twice. | ||
| We're also stopping in Ohio before we get to Pennsylvania. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Two stops on either side of the street in PA, and then we hit Maryland and we end on September 10th in Washington, D.C. | |
| So if we're in your seat, come join us on the tour. | ||
| You can find the details about that by going to demandonlycitizensvote.com. | ||
|
unidentified
|
DemandOnlyCitizensVote.com. | |
| And if we're not in your seat, and even if we are, join us in Washington, D.C. on September 10th. | ||
| We have people across the country signing petitions just like the ones that Pamela Woods is turning in for us. | ||
| We are hand delivering these on September 10th in D.C. after we have our rally. | ||
| And Steve, everyone here wants you to join us on September 10th at our rally. | ||
| I will be there. | ||
| We're going to commit. | ||
| We're not just that. | ||
| I think the worm's going to broadcast from there. | ||
| You tell our folks down there in Corpus Christi, we love them. | ||
| They're the backbone of the country. | ||
| And the reason that we're winning and going to save this country is that crowd right there. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And hey, Steve, this list right here that we were going over before that is basically President Trump's outline of what he wants to see happen, Annie here, who has this, she pointed out this is what our parents did. | ||
| This is what we did in the 80s and 90s and early 2000s. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we need to just get back to these common sense measures. | |
| Amen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Tell him we love them. | |
| Fight on. | ||
| He loves you. | ||
| Fight on and join us. | ||

| Thanks, Warream Posse, and thank you, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Thank you, Jenny Beth Martin. | ||
| Wow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What a way to kick off the weekend. | |
| Incredible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right there, that energy. | |
| And it's just common sense. | ||
| I mean, you see why President Trump wants it. | ||
| It's just common sense. | ||
| The reason that Democrats are fighting, as you know, once you implement that, they'll never win another election. | ||
| But so be it. | ||
| This is why they've lost 4.5 million people. | ||
| Registered Democrats have punched out and said, take my registration back. | ||
| I want to be an independent. | ||
| I just don't want to vote anymore. | ||
| Ben Harnwell, you've been on a roll recently. | ||
| Everything we've said about the Ukraine situation has been 100% correct. | ||
| Now that we know potentially what the casualties are, that President Trump couldn't tell us because he kept saying, hey, it's Intel. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I can't say it, but it's a lot worse than you think. | |
| He would say it all the time. | ||
| We now know from this Russian cyber hack that it looks like 1.7 million Ukrainians dead or wounded, 625,000 this year alone. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And this is why you're not seeing a lot of reporting from the battlefield. | |
| Number one, a lot of those reports don't go up there. | ||
| Number two, it's nothing good to report. | ||
| The courageous and brave Ukrainian people are just getting put into the meat grinder, right? | ||
| And the Russians who have a, you know, just a historical, you know, not focused on casualties of themselves. | ||
| They don't care if you die, you die. | ||
| That's part of the deal. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This war is getting bloodier. | |
| You've got some observations on that I want to get to. | ||
| Given all your reporting you've done, looking at what's happening in Europe, this amazing interview by the head of the German military union that called it a bluff and praise strategy. | ||
| That term is so powerful. | ||
| Your thoughts about what President Trump should do here, sir? | ||
| Well, firstly, coming back to the Russian losses, it's not that Russians have no value of human life, but I think from their perspective, the sacrifices are a little easier to bear because they can see victory as a serious probability, a serious probability on the horizon. | ||
| That's not the case with the Ukrainians. | ||
| They know, they should know, as has been pretty much apparent, I think, since the beginning of the war, when the Biden strategy was pretty much to try to contain the situation whilst escalating it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That is to say, if America wasn't going to join kinetically and strike Russia, there was no real way the Ukrainians were ever going to win this simply because in a war of attrition, who has the largest resources is going to win. | |
| And that's important to understand from the Russian perspective. | ||
| They see that they are going to win at some point and that the conclusion of this war is inevitable. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And therefore, it's more palatable for them to absorb the sacrifices that they are doing. | |
| Well, look, there were so many developments coming out in the last 24, 48 hours, it's difficult to know where to start. | ||
| The Washington Post, however, picks up this story that, you know, and I commend the war room here. | ||
| We saw the Hugo Lowell article where he mentions basically in passing that President Trump is going to basically say, that's it, I'm out. | ||
| I'll have a trilateral with Russia and Ukraine, but I'm going to be out until Russia and Ukraine sit down together with one another. | ||
| And Steve, this show, we knew exactly what that meant, and we honed in on that article. | ||
| And we were, I think, pretty much the first to come in with that analysis. | ||
| But now is the line two days later that has been repeated by the Washington Post. | ||
| That's the situation, folks, that President Trump has thrown his cards down on the table and he said, fold, I'm out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now, Steve, that can, to some degree, hasten the end of the war, but it will require the European Union. | |
| But hang on, but hang on. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I just want to be clear. | |
| He's done that very logically. | ||
| He went out of the way. | ||
| The opportunity cost here was huge. | ||
| The whole last weekend, Friday, all the way through Monday night, Tuesday, he exposed the finality of the Euro, you know, UK, France, Germany, Italy. | ||
| It's a joke. | ||
| It's all been exposed in the last three or four days. | ||
| They came over here trying to entangle President Trump in a situation that we provide essentially the security guarantees and the money. | ||
| They have nothing. | ||
| As I said, they don't have the arms. | ||
| They don't have the cash. | ||
| They don't have the troops. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| And they've been called out now by people at their home. | ||
| That's why President Trump, wisely, I think, is throwing the card saying, hey, look, if Zelensky and Putin want to get together, have them get together, do a byla, if they can figure something out, I'll get involved and then take it from there and go to a tri-lat. | ||
| I mean, the reason President Trump, he's gone out of his way to try to bring both parties together, going out of his way against even resistance from War Room, Warren Posse, to say, I'll try to do as much as possible. | ||
| But Zelensky has no support. | ||
| He has no support. | ||
| There's all happy talk and they'll stand in front of microphones, but when they got to step up with the three things, money, weapons, or troops, they got nothing, right? | ||
| And that's all this is coming down to, brother. | ||
| A thousand percent. | ||
| Now, when I say that that President Trump's, let's call it the pivot. | ||
| Let's call it a pivot. | ||
| The reason I suggest that that pivot can hasten the end of the war is because the reason that war is still going on is that the Europeans are desperately trying to pull Uncle Sugar into this. | ||
| They're still trying to do that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's still their strategy for all the reasons that you've just outlined. | |
| So, for this manoeuvre of President Trump's to hasten the end of the war, it will require the Europeans now to get out of the way and fall in line behind President Trump's position and say we will support President Trump behind this trilateral meeting, but we won't be giving President Zelensky the support that he's expecting until that happens. | ||
| Now, Steve, I have something which I mentioned on the show a couple of days ago. | ||
| I very, very much want to share with the war in posse. | ||
| And it regards the total hoax that is NATO, that is the alliance. | ||
| Because what people like Georgia Maloney, Phoney Maloney, is trying, the conceit behind what she's pushing, and this is the plan right now that they're sort of solidifying behind what she's calling NATO light, which is basically Article 5 guarantees for Ukraine without membership in the alliance. | ||
| Folks, in that situation, if a European NATO ally, let's say, I mean, they don't have the 10,000 per country number of troops that they need to pony up in order to pull the security guarantees off in a serious way. | ||
| But let's say they came up with something because they are trying to get President Putin to kick the tripwire to bring in the United States. | ||
| Let's say there's a European presence there. | ||
| Though NATO security guarantees are still applicable, Article 5 guarantees are still, not guarantees, provisions are still there, even if America isn't part of this. | ||
| Here's my pitch to the Trump administration that I'm sharing for the first time here on air with the war in posse. | ||
| I believe that the Trump administration should seek some form of codicil, some form of formal derogation exempting the United States from any Article 5 provisions if European NATO allies should come into kinetic contact with Russia fulfilling their security guarantees in Ukraine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Formal. | |
| And why do I say formal? | ||
| Why do I say that the other European nations should sign this? | ||
| Because then they will feel the risk of what they are doing if they know America is out. | ||
| What we have right now, Steve, is this system, this tool. | ||
| I know we're coming up to a break. | ||
| We have a concept in political philosophy where people are being separated, insulated from the consequences of their decisions, which encourages them to act in a more riskier conduct. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's called moral hazard. | |
| And that is what NATO is actually providing right now. | ||
| It is a moral hazard for the world. | ||
| If each of these Member States, NATO allies, needed to go to their parliaments, to their peoples, and say we're drafting or calling to duty 10,000 troops to send over to Ukraine. | ||
| And I have had to sign, I've been called over to the Oval Office and I have had to sign a formal code decile. | ||
| I've had to say that The United States will be absolved of any Article 5 responsibility provisions, responsibilities. | ||
| If my country is attacked in Ukraine by Russia, there would be literally zero. | ||
| It would be zero percentage support. | ||
| That's why I'm suggesting a formal derogation of a solid United States. | ||
| But hang on, but hang on, hang on. | ||
| By the way, what Ben is saying is very sophisticated and very smart. | ||
| And on last Monday, it looked like it might have been an issue. | ||
| If they came together and had an EU army, however they did it, that you would still, the United States could still get sucked in because this Article 5 provision in the NATO alliance. | ||
| But the reality is right now, would you not agree that that looks remote? | ||
| That looks like none of these countries will even come close, what we call the line of contact. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's zero probability, zero, that the UK, France, Germany, Italy step up with any troops that will go to the line of contact and be some sort of security guarantee. | |
| Yes or no? | ||
| You agree that they won't do that as we sit here today? | ||
| It is zero at the moment unless they are able to drag Uncle Sugar back into this conflict. | ||
| No, hang on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're going to take a short commercial break. | |
| We're going to go to Greece. | ||
| We're going to talk about this in the United Kingdom on the next flight. | ||
| So my point is that Britain today exhibits all the standard warning signals of a country which is vulnerable to the outbreak of civil war. | ||
| There are fundamentally three that are important. | ||
| These are structural and long-term. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They don't emerge, they haven't simply emerged recently. | |
| They've been building for a long time. | ||
| The first is the factionalization of the society, which is increasingly of a type which I call, which is known in the literature as polar factionalization, where people are not disagreeing on issues per se. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're essentially differing in accordance with what they think is the consensus view of their tribe. | |
| And this is a form of factionalism which only occurs when people are beginning to feel unsafe. | ||
| It's a reflection of a perception of insecurity in society that makes people wish to look to their tribe for security. | ||
| Let me jump in here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I strongly recommend, and I'm going to be putting it back up, Ben Harnwell, the show you did last night at six with Tim Stanley and Brother Betts are extraordinary. | |
| We've been talking about this for a while, but people have to understand that some of the smartest people in the United Kingdom are talking about civil war. | ||
| Ben Harnwell, give me a minute or two on that before we talk about Greece. | ||
| Well, Steve, you and I have been discussing for a number of weeks how we're going to do this on the show. | ||
| What Professor David Betts, who's a professor of war at King's College, London, one of the establishment universities, a very respected university in the UK, is saying there is that normally the conditions of defining a failed state overseas can equally validly be applied to the UK right now. | ||
| And that's what he's doing. | ||
| He's going through the list in a very profound exposition of suggesting exactly why the UK is itself a failed state. | ||
| I make this point because there's so much to go into. | ||
| We don't have time now in the closing minutes of the show. | ||
| What he's basically suggesting, and what Tim Stanley, an astounding article for the Daily Telegraph, based on this, are suggesting, is that the UK, by its conduct on the Muslim front, the mass immigration front, are creating the conditions in the UK that will lead to the civil war. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And what Tim Stanley says in his article would be, even though he's obviously arguing against this, would be the imposition of some kind of fascist government in order, by fascist, we're sort of talking, I think, 1930s, 1940s terminology, in order to restore order following the war. | |
| This, Steve, to be decided by nobody is exactly the responsibility of our globalist elites. | ||
| They're causing this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now, the reason this is so powerful, Tim Stanley is one of the most profound writers, and he's certainly not a MAGA guy at all. | |
| He's from that classic Daily Telegraph, British Tory, you know, leaning toward nefarage, where you have to have reform, but you can't have otherwise you're going to have the right wing. | ||
| He is not a guy whose hair is on fire. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's a safe pair of hands. | |
| And then the military professor, it's one of the most important segments we've ever done or episodes we've ever done in War Room. | ||
| I want to make sure it gets pushed out this weekend. | ||
| And it's very profound. | ||
| And people have to start thinking, because Stanley just lays it out. | ||
| And folks, that's where it's going because there's nobody that's got the political will to stop it. | ||
| And that's why if you didn't have Trump and everybody says, oh, Trump, this, Trump, that, he's done. | ||
| Hey, with all his faults, he right now has at least stopped this of this rapid deterioration. | ||
| And that's why we're fighting so hard to turn it around. | ||
| And this is why I'm a big believer in a maximalist strategy on everything we do now. | ||
| Pedal to the metal, no half measures. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Real quickly, you're starting to wake up in Europe. | |
| Tell me about the Aegean. | ||
| What are the Greeks finally doing down there in this island, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look, Steve, just 30 seconds. | |
| The reason why Trump is so important is that he's proving that it is possible still to reform the system from within, so that revolution and civil war are not necessary. | ||
| That is the crucial thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Perhaps it's only possible within the context of the American genius. | |
| I don't know. | ||
| But that is, I think, the importance of what he's doing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's reforming the system from within. | |
| Look, Kyriakos Mitsutakis, the Greek prime minister, is pushing out the rhetoric. | ||
| The country is 100% against this mass immigration, and they, along with Italy, are on the forefront. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I have to point out that Mitsutakis is part of the European People's Party, the political family of which Ursula von der Leyen was their choice to be president of the Commission. | |
| These are the very people, this is the very political family responsible for the mass migration crisis. | ||
| I would like to gently suggest that if the Greek government was serious about coming to grips with the crises that it has created, it wouldn't have pushed for three members of parliament to be expelled via the courts. | ||
| I think it's slightly performative, but we'll see what the results are, Steve. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Okay, anyway, where do people go for your getter feed? | ||
| You're putting stuff up all weekend. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Amazing show last night. | |
| Where do folks go, Ben? | ||
| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| On Getter, my social media platform of choice under my surname, Harnwell. | ||
| Thanks, Steve, very much. | ||
| I wish you and the war imposse a great weekend. | ||
| God bless. | ||
| Great, amazing show and great analysis today on Ukraine. | ||
| We've got so much going on. | ||
| I'll be putting stuff up on Getter non-stop over the weekend. | ||
| We'll be back here at 10 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Monday back in the warm. | ||
| But I want to finish on an upbeat note of keeping you healthy for the long fight ahead. | ||

Sacred Human Health, the founder and CEO, Trevor Comstack. | |
| What do you got for us today, brother? | ||
| Hey, Steve, good to see you. | ||
| So once again, our towel moisturizer has still been selling fast. | ||
| I'm very happy about that. | ||
| And people have already been leaving a ton of positive reviews, which I encourage everyone to check out. | ||
| But today I wanted to announce that we actually just launched another new product, which is our creatine powder. | ||
| And I'm really excited to share it with you guys as it has a ton of benefits. | ||
| But creatine is really amazing because it's one of the most studied and effective nutrients available. | ||
| And it supports things like brain health, memory, as well as cognitive function. | ||
| And then on top of that, it also helps your brain produce more energy, which can improve focus and mental clarity, which just makes it perfect for anyone looking to stay sharp and alert, especially if you're sleep deprived or fatigued. | ||
| On top of that, it's also fantastic for physical performance. | ||
| So it helps your muscles produce more energy during high-intensity exercises, which means you can lift heavier, train harder, and recover faster, which is pretty amazing. | ||
| Now, compared to most commercial brain or performance supplements, the issues with those is, once again, they're usually filled with synthetic ingredients or the formula is just not very effective at all or pretty diluted. | ||
| Whereas creatine is just clean and trusted and really does give your body and brain the natural boost in a form that's really easy to mix. | ||
| So you can mix it in coffee, water, smoothies, juice, pretty much any liquid. | ||
| But yeah, I really can't say enough about it. | ||
| Once again, it's one of the most studied nutrients available. | ||
| I can't say enough about it. | ||
| I can't say enough about it either. | ||
| This is one of the ways I stay sharp. | ||
| Real quickly, where they go to the site and how they get the discount. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| You can go to sacredhumanhealth.com and then use code Warroom for 10% off. | ||
| We got you covered there. | ||

But yeah, appreciate it. | |
