unidentified
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people.
I got a free shot 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.
steve bannon
It's going to happen.
unidentified
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
jake tapper
MAGA Media.
unidentified
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.
Waru, here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
Okay, it's Tuesday, 16th September in the year of our Lord 2025.
steve bannon
Charlie Kirk's, the alleged assassin, was arraigned today.
unidentified
And of course, they got a little different system in Utah.
steve bannon
All the states have slightly different systems.
unidentified
And I find they don't really have a grand jury system for things like this.
steve bannon
They have this kind of charging document or they give enough to be able to charge.
unidentified
And they had a press conference a day or a press avail and read it.
I've asked to join me for this second hour, a guy who has become an expert kind of in all this.
And let me just give you his bona fides because I don't think that you talked about enough.
I've known Leahy now, I don't know, for 15 years.
steve bannon
We were colleagues over at Breitbart.
unidentified
He was one of the founders.
I think he was one of the founders on the first conference call, that famous conference call about the Tea Party.
Michael Patrick Leahy was on that and one of the founders of the Tea Party movement.
Also a brilliant guy, a Harvard.
He did the double, he did what in the old days used to be the big event.
He did a Harvard College undergraduate degree, not a trade school.
I went to the business school.
steve bannon
He was not a trade school.
unidentified
He actually went to the college, Harvard, and then he went to Stanford Business School, which tried to supplant Harvard as the number one business school in the world.
It failed, but it had a run.
It had a run.
And then Leahy, just being Leahy, because he's running, I don't think, nine newspapers.
He's got a nationwide group of kind of newspapers he does and the Tennessee Star and has an amazing radio program.
Because Leahy being Leahy, he decides at his advanced stage, he's going to go.
He's going to go.
steve bannon
He doesn't have a law degree.
unidentified
He's got a Harvard College undergraduate degree.
He's got an MBA from Stanford, but he doesn't have a law degree.
So he's going to go to night school for law and get a law degree.
And to be blunt, as a good friend of his, he's been insufferable ever since.
Now I'm getting Leahy the lawyer every day I'm talking.
But Leahy, you are, I think, one of the living experts in this whole kind of the violent, radical, I would almost call it paramilitary nature of this transgender movement because of your work as only Leahy can do with the Nashville shooter, of which if it was not for you, we wouldn't have even the parts of the manifesto we got.
steve bannon
So before I go through and start playing some clips, give me your overall assessment about this, sir.
unidentified
Well, there is a very deep group of transgender LGBTQ militias around the country.
And we were looking into the connection between those groups and the shooter, the alleged shooter, the assassin of Charlie Kirk.
And because we were looking into it, we found this group called Armed Queers of Salt Lake City.
And they'd held some training just a few miles from the site of the shooting a couple of weeks ago.
michael patrick leahy
The founder of that group is a 24-year-old transgender immigrant from Iran.
unidentified
Her name is Urmaya Fanayan.
And she quite has a very bizarre background.
She got her start.
She transitioned when she was in high school from male towns.
steve bannon
Hold on, hang on.
unidentified
Hang on, hang on.
steve bannon
Full stop.
unidentified
We're in the war room, baby.
It's a Persian dude, okay?
Whatever they do to themselves, they can do it.
No, no, they can do that.
michael patrick leahy
Hey, I got no problem.
unidentified
You can do what you want to do to yourself.
You can call yourself anything you want.
You can do all that.
And hey, if that's what you think your task and purpose is, do it.
But in the war room, you're a boy or a girl the way God assigned it, and the Holy Spirit assigned it at birth.
So you got a Persian guy, right, that is the leader, one of the leaders of this thing.
steve bannon
So what did this guy, what did this guy, who transitioned now to a lovely young lady, you're calling them militias.
unidentified
When you say militias, you mean they're armed up and they're taking target practice.
Yeah, I mean, there are a number of, quote, Democratic socialist militia groups around the country.
There have been a couple here in Nashville.
And the FBI now has this group under scrutiny.
The founder of the group has a bizarre background.
The Persian dude, who purportedly transitioned while in high school, got his political start working with, wait for it, David Hogg in 2018 on anti-gun groups, but then quickly became part of a group called Pink Pistols.
But they kicked her out, apparently, or him out, apparently, because she was a little bit too radical even for them.
And so now the group that he founded, Armed Queers for Salt Lake City, is apparently under FBI scrutiny for possible connections to this terrible assassination.
Here's what I don't get.
Given, and I'm not saying he didn't transition to wherever he thought he was going to be, just as, hey, we'd like to keep it simple here.
steve bannon
No pronouns, no nothing.
unidentified
Hey, if God and the Holy Spirit got you at birth as a boy, you're a boy.
They got you as a girl.
There's two genders, boys and girls.
Whatever they do, they're going to do, right?
Whatever they're going to do, they're going to do.
I want to go to the radicalness of it.
When he's saying he's in a group called Pink Pistols, and they say this guy's too radical, you're just not welcome here.
And he goes formed a, what, armed queers of Salt Lake City, and they're taking militia practice.
steve bannon
Why has the FBI, particularly given, and get people up to date.
unidentified
What happened in Nashville?
And if you want to have a brutal, by the way, they take the videos down right away.
I don't think there's been a more heart-rendering situation, Leahy, a couple of years ago when we got you on about that situation in Nashville where that young woman's going through the school hunting down six-year-olds.
They hunted down little six-year-olds and seven-year-olds because they're so hate-filled about what their own lives are.
It's the same thing in Minneapolis.
They're putting the gun between the stained glass windows into a church to gun down little kids at mass.
They hate children.
They hate innocent children.
And they hunt them down and they gun them down like they're dogs, just like they hated Charlie Kirk.
And you see what happens there.
So tell me about why is the FBI not on top of this given everything that came out of Nashville and everything's coming to Minneapolis?
Well, our reporting suggests that they are on top of it and that this group is under scrutiny.
michael patrick leahy
You know, it's been not quite a week since Charlie was assassinated in Orem, Utah.
unidentified
I think they're really looking into it.
I suspect, what I suspect they're going to find here, Steve, is, and the text messages that came out that were reported just a few hours ago by the district attorney in Utah County suggest that others may have known about this.
And I think what they're going to find is there were probably a great number of individuals within this murky transgender militia universe who were aware of the possibility and didn't do anything about it.
michael patrick leahy
So I think right now there's going to be a lot more investigation.
unidentified
I actually, my view on this, that I think Kash Patel at the FBI has done a much better job than the FBI under Biden with the Covenant Killer.
Of course, we said because Biden was having them into the freaking Oval Office, the Bud Light dude was in the Oval Office doing question and answers or at the residents doing question and answers.
Of course, we're doing a better job.
steve bannon
But all the investigation, this is like the things that drive me crazy is when they all talk about the partnerships and the great partnerships they got at the beginning of these press conferences.
unidentified
That's as bad as thoughts and prayers, right?
The other is afterwards, like in Minneapolis or in Nashville, you got up-armored Humvees, you got guys with 50 cows, everybody's up in a vest.
They got a million people around when it doesn't matter.
Okay.
I want to know why these weren't infiltrated after Nashville.
Why do you need with Nashville and every other one?
They got a, you know, they got a half a dozen of these.
steve bannon
Why do you need, why do we need Charlie Kirk gunned down?
unidentified
Well, we don't, we haven't infiltrated these groups like you did all the anti-war groups and radical groups in the 60s and 70s.
Why are they not infiltrated?
Why do we not know about the Discord?
Why do we not, and they're saying, Steve, you're just being too hard.
steve bannon
Well, hold it.
unidentified
Hang on for a second.
This is what they're supposed to be doing because you had these militias, this radicalness, and the violence.
They are looking for violent solutions.
Look at the manifestos.
The manifestos are crazed.
The manifesto, the little we've got from Nashville is in, and it'll make your head spin.
And then Minneapolis.
And by the way, what percentage of the manifesto do we have right now from Nashville?
steve bannon
Is it all out?
unidentified
Are you still fighting?
We have about 85% of it because, and again, I'll say this, we were critical early on of how long it took Kash Patel's FBI to get this out, but they have honored their word when we agreed to drop the suit, and they have given us about 1,500 pages so far.
And we've been analyzing it.
michael patrick leahy
But your broader point is quite correct.
unidentified
You know, let me go back to the poll.
I don't know if you saw this poll, Steve, that Scott Rasmussen at Napolitan News put out yesterday.
michael patrick leahy
15% of Americans believed that the murder of Charlie Kirk was justified, and that was about 26% of people under the age of 35.
unidentified
Now, there are a whole bunch of those folks that are part of these groups, and you are absolutely right.
The FBI and the Department of Justice, even under Trump 2.0, have been slow on the uptake, and they should really, really go in and begin aggressive investigation into all of these violent LGBTQ transgender groups because they are armed and obviously they are dangerous.
So, Hammond, I'm going to do some rough math here, and you're a Harvard and Stanford grad, so you're going to help me out.
There's 330 million, let's say 350, right?
Maybe you count everybody up, 350 million people in the country.
What is that?
That is 70 million, 1035, that's 70.
That's over, according to Rasmussen's poll, if I do my sums correctly, north of 80 million people in this country, right?
Oh, that's total under 35, 26% of that.
So you could have 20 or 30 million, you could have 20 or 30 million people, right?
You could have 20 or 30 million people in this country that say you're saying 26% under the age of 35.
26% or 35 think it's justified.
This is the radical nature, and this is why Tillis, we have to escalate to take down this.
26%, you see Charlie Kirk, Charlie Kirk's the best we got.
He's the one that will sit down with them and debate them and go into the lion's den, fearless, a man of spirit and believe in his spirit, believe in eternal life, believe in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
He was fearless.
You're not going to get any better than Charlie Kirk.
That's the best we got.
Okay?
And they shot him down like an animal, killed him in cold blood in front of the world.
And then you saw the charge that they doing something in front of little kids.
They don't care.
And if you've seen the left, the way they're mocking him, this 26%, and his children, a lot of people say, well, why didn't you get the kids?
And his wife, you see that these people are, you can't, there's no unity there.
There's nothing, there is no common ground.
steve bannon
There's no common ground that they take up the same space and have been afforded these amazing opportunities like this young guy.
unidentified
And I'll be blunt.
I don't know why the parents aren't rolled up right now as co-conspirators or lease accessories before the fact and let them and let them and let's drill down.
Particularly the mother, I'm just not buying.
They didn't have they said, well, you know, he mentioned something the week before that, you know, Charlie Kirk was coming and they had some issues with Charlie Kirk.
Well, I want to find out more about that under oath.
Just like the phony roommate.
steve bannon
I'll tell you what's right now.
unidentified
Here's what we're going to do.
We're going to play the district attorney reading the text messages and we're going to put it up on the screen so you can see it.
Let's go ahead and play that.
It takes about, and then we have a very special report from ABC News that comes in right after that'll make your head blow up.
steve bannon
Michael Patrick Lay's going to stick with me.
unidentified
Denver, let's go ahead and play.
The roommate.
Police interviewed Robinson's roommate, a biological mal who was involved in a romantic relationship with Robinson.
The roommate told police that the roommate received messages from Robinson about the shooting, and he did provide those messages to police.
On September 10th, 2025, the roommate received a text message from Robinson, which said, Drop what you're doing.
Look under my keyboard.
The roommate looked under the keyboard and found a note that stated, I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I'm going to take it.
Police found a photograph of this note.
The following exchange, text exchange, then took place.
After reading the note, the roommate responded, What?
You're joking, right?
jeff gray
Robinson.
unidentified
I am still okay, my love, but I'm stuck in oram for a little while longer yet.
Shouldn't be long until I can come home, but I got to grab my rifle still.
To be honest, I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age.
I am sorry to involve you.
Roommate, you weren't the one who did it, right?
Robinson, I am, I am, I'm sorry.
Roommate, I thought they caught the person, Robinson.
No, they grabbed some crazy old dude, then interrogated someone in similar clothing.
I had planned to grab my rifle from my drop point shortly after, but most of that side of town got locked down.
It's quiet, almost enough to get out, but there's one vehicle lingering.
Roommate, why?
Robinson, why did I do it?
Roommate, yeah.
Robinson, I had enough of his hatred.
Some hate can't be negotiated out.
If I am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence.
Going to attempt to retrieve it again.
Hopefully they have moved on.
I haven't seen anything about them finding it.
jeff gray
Roommate, how long have you been planning this?
unidentified
Robinson, a bit over a week, I believe.
jeff gray
I can get close to it, but there is a squad car parked right by it.
unidentified
I think they already swept that spot, but I don't want to chance it.
Robinson again, I'm wishing I had circled back and grabbed it as soon as I got to my vehicle.
I'm worried what my old man would do if I didn't bring back grandpa's rifle.
I-D-E-K, if it's had a serial number, but it wouldn't trace to me.
I worry about Prince.
I had to leave it in a bush where I changed outfits.
Didn't have the ability or time to bring it with.
I might have to abandon it and hope they don't find Prince.
How the F will I explain losing it to my old man?
Only thing I left was the rapple, was the rifle wrapped in a towel.
Remember how I was engraving bullets?
The effing messages are mostly a big meme.
jeff gray
If I see notice bulge UWU on Fox New, I might have a stroke, all right.
unidentified
I'm gonna have to leave it.
That really effing sucks.
Judging from today, I'd say grandpa's gun does just fine, IDK.
I think that was a 2K dollar scope.
Wink wink.
Robinson, Robinson again, delete this exchange.
Again, Robinson, my dad wants photos of the rifle.
He says grandpa wants to know who has what.
The feds released a photo of the rifle, and it is very unique.
He's calling me, R.N., not answering.
jeff gray
Robinson, since Trump got into office, my dad has been pretty die-hard MAGA.
unidentified
Robinson, I'm going to turn myself in willingly.
jeff gray
One of my neighbors here is a deputy for the sheriff.
unidentified
Again, you are all I worry about, love.
That came from Robinson.
Roommate, I'm much more worried about you.
Robinson, don't talk to the media, please.
jeff gray
Don't take any interviews or make any comments.
If any police ask you questions, ask for a lawyer and stay silent.
unidentified
The search for Robinson.
We have seen an alleged murder with such specific text messages about the alleged murder weapon, where it was hidden, how it was placed, what was on it, but also it was very touching in a way that I think many of us didn't expect.
A very intimate portrait into this relationship between the suspect's roommate and the suspect himself with him repeatedly calling his roommate who is transitioning, calling him my love and I want to protect you, my love.
So it was this duality of someone who the attorney said not only jeopardized the life of Charlie Kirk and the crowd, but was doing it in front of children, which is one of the aggravating circumstances of this case.
And on the other hand, he was speaking so lovingly about his partner.
So a very interesting and, as Pierre said, riveting press conference, David.
Wow.
Can't tell David Muir is the executive editor of ABC News.
steve bannon
What are you talking about, dude?
unidentified
Duality?
Play this again.
I got to have this again.
steve bannon
If that guy is on the payroll at ABC News by the close of business, then anybody that ever watches ABC News, not that this audience does, is just adding to this madness.
unidentified
It's a duality.
It's so touching.
He's so touching to his loved one.
How can this guy be a cold-blooded murderer?
This is what they got.
steve bannon
All the freaks today show up to Mangione.
unidentified
It's like the arrival of Frank Sinatra back in the old days with the teeny boppers.
They can't get enough.
I told you these people were twisted.
I told you that it was all going to come to this.
You watch starts in these schools in kindergarten.
You got these terrorists, that's what they are, that mold these people and twist them and twist them.
steve bannon
Play the ABC News.
unidentified
This is the summary of ABC News.
This is the summary of ABC News.
steve bannon
President Trump, please sue him again and get another like $20 billion out of it or whatever you got, $20 million.
unidentified
Sue him again.
David Muir, the executive editor of ABC News, and this is what the, let's see what their, their amazing analysis after that, after you just read that, let's hear it.
We have seen an alleged murder with such specific text messages about the alleged murder weapon, where it was hidden, how it was placed, what was on it, but also it was very touching in a way that I think many of us didn't expect.
A very intimate portrait into this relationship between the suspect's roommate and the suspect himself with him repeatedly calling his roommate who was transitioning, calling him my love and I want to protect you, my love.
So it was this duality of someone who the attorney said not only jeopardized the life of Charlie Kirk and the crowd, but was doing it in front of children, which is one of the aggravating circumstances of this case.
And on the other hand, he was speaking so lovingly about his partner.
So a very interesting and, as Pierre said, riveting press conference, David.
Speaking so lovingly, no, he didn't jeopardize the life of Charlie Kirk.
steve bannon
He shot Charlie Kirk allegedly in cold blood.
unidentified
But I digress.
So, Leahy, I'm just not buying the text messages.
steve bannon
That is, if you were in Hollywood and walked in with that script to a producer, the first thing they were saying, that's too on the nose.
unidentified
It's too on the nose.
steve bannon
You're too specific.
It seems like you've got to learn how to really help people think in these situations when the guy just supposedly gunned down Charlie Kirk in cold blood on a shot that, you know, putting the muzzle together and all the video they show, one minute he's peg-legged, the next minute he's not peg-legged, right?
unidentified
One minute he's walking through the neighborhood, the peg-legged, the next he's walking through with shorts on.
steve bannon
One minute he's using the Dodge Charger.
unidentified
The next minute he's not.
One minute he's jumping off a roof of a building.
The next minute, oh, he's got the rifle.
steve bannon
Michael Savage is still correct on this.
unidentified
So, and then the write-up, and like the ABC guy said, it's so detailed.
It's such a roadmap.
steve bannon
I'm just not, it's too on the nose.
unidentified
It's too scripted.
steve bannon
People in those situations are not, you know, you're so jacked up.
unidentified
You're so afraid they're going to come and get you and kill you, right?
The cops are either going to kill you or, you know, you're going to die in some gunfight.
And he said, hey, it told people, I want to take my life.
You're toward the end of your run here.
You're not sitting there going, yeah, you know, I'll be back in a couple of days.
He's like on a business trip.
What are you at?
A convention?
steve bannon
He's at a convention.
unidentified
Yeah, I'll be back in a couple of days, sweetheart.
Right?
Make sure there's a pot of coffee on when I get back.
What is it?
steve bannon
Leahy, I don't know.
unidentified
Your thoughts and observations.
Well, I share your skepticism about those text messages.
It's almost as if they are choreographed to get the roommate slash lover man transitioning to be a woman to get that individual outside the scope of the investigation.
It just could be that.
And you're right.
It does seem very, very detailed, very, very measured, and not the kind of frenetic, intense communication that you might have, expect to have if this happened in real time.
I think what's going to happen on this, Steve, my view would be they are going to keep the alleged assassin in isolation, but go through very serious questions and investigations to point out and to really push and see what is real, what is not real.
michael patrick leahy
I suspect, Steve, that what we're going to find is that there are many individuals who were aware of this and did nothing to stop it and may, after the fact, have aided and abetted.
This is what I suspect I do not know.
unidentified
I think it's going to take a long time for this to come out, but there's a lot of additional evidence which has to be brought out before justice is served in this case.
Leahy, can you stick around a minute?
I want to play.
I want to play some stuff about Cox.
And I got to talk to you about Memphis.
You're a man on the scene in Memphis.
Once again, Leahy called it years ago, said Memphis was out of control as far as crime goes.
steve bannon
Well, a guy agrees with him is the president of these United States.
unidentified
Am I wrong?
Look, I'm giving you hot takes, and we'll try not to be a hot takes place.
I'll look at this more tonight and talk to people.
Did he tell the roommate, remember when I was engraving the bullets?
You think he's just engraving the bullets with all, you know, hey, fascist catch?
That the guy transitioning to whatever doesn't say, hey, honey, what are you doing with the bullets?
Oh, Charlie Kirk's coming next week.
steve bannon
I don't know.
unidentified
I don't know, but I'm not buying any of it.
I'm going to get savage.
steve bannon
We're going to go through all the videos.
It doesn't match up.
unidentified
One minute he's peg-legged.
steve bannon
Do you think he gets on a roof and puts together a bolt-to-action, a 30-odd 6 Mauser with that barrel and puts a thing in that it lines up perfectly?
unidentified
Is that what you're telling me with the little screwdriver he conveniently leaves behind?
Takes everything else, but conveniently leaves the screwdriver.
You're getting stuff.
When you see the screwdriver, let me throw that in the backpack.
steve bannon
Was that take a millimeter of a second?
unidentified
But no, I got to leave the screwdriver with the DNA so they can match it with the DNA on the rifle butt.
I'm not buying it.
I am not buying it.
I've got an open mind, but I'm not buying this.
Short commercial break.
We're going to turn in the war.
We've got Michael Patrick Leahy, the mastermind that broke down everything about this horrible Nashville shooting next in the war room.
jeff gray

That's how easy it is.
I was going to play this thing about Cox, and I've got my compatriot, Michael Patrick Leahy, one of the smartest guys I know, with me writing shotgun now.
And I'm going to do it in a second.
But the war room engine room and the different locations, they're blowing me up.
A couple of things.
Number one, let me go back to it.
You've just killed one of the most prominent people in your generation.
And supposedly your motive is you know that that's where you killed him, right?
steve bannon
You assassinated him.
unidentified
Probably the first living thing you ever killed in your life, and you did it in front of 3,000 people.
You know the whole world, this is a global event very quickly.
You adrenaline, and you also know, because you tell your parents when they contact you, you're just going to kill it.
steve bannon
So you know that your last moments on earth are now enveloping you.
unidentified
You know that.
steve bannon
You just shot this guy.
unidentified
It's all the news everywhere.
And the cops are either going to kill you in a shootout or you're going to kill yourself before they take you, right?
steve bannon
So your last moments on this earth are with you.
unidentified
And you're telling me that you write your boyfriend and say, dad's going to be so mad about grandpa's rifle.
Dad's going to be so mad about grandpa's rifle.
Dude, your father is supposedly MAGA.
Your parents were supposedly good people that raised you.
They're Mormons.
So they're supposedly rock-rid conservatives.
You just murdered the most important young person in the world in the conservative movement.
steve bannon
You murdered him.
unidentified
You shot him down like a dog.
And you're telling me that you're going to text her, Dad's going to be very upset.
I lost Grandpa's rifle.
Are you kidding me?
While you're explaining everything, oh, we left it here.
I left it here.
But I think I got a palm print on it.
steve bannon
I think I left a fingerprint on it.
unidentified
A palm print.
You expect me to believe that?
Also, and this is the intro.
I really want to thank the engine room.
I think this is one of the North Carolina, the North Carolina engine room, reminds me that Gutman, the ABC reporter is getting teary-eyed.
steve bannon
You know what he's getting teary-eyed about?
He's not getting teary-eyed because they went through the capital murder charges, the capital murder charges for this guy.

They're not getting teary-eyed and thinking there about how he put the things on the bullet and shot him and killed Charlie Kirk in cold blood in front of the world, including his children and his wife.
The reporter's getting teary-eyed and choked up because wasn't that tender?
Wasn't it tender?
Was it very touchy?
steve bannon
I didn't expect that.
It was very tender.

Who gets the time to write a Shakespeare sonnet to your lover that's remote, but I'll be back in a couple of days when the heat's off.
In that moment, does Shakespeare, is that what wells up in you, a Shakespeare-like sonnet that can draw tears from a hard-bitten ABC news reporter?
David Muir, we're curious.
We got a question on that.
How did the guy have time to write a sonnet?
How did he worry about dad's really going to be upset about grandpa's rifle?
I think your father may be upset that you shot a man in cold blood in front of the world.
The best of his generation.
I think your parents may have, they may talk about that first, for they say, oh, by the way, did you bring the rifle back?
Did you bring the gun back?
I am absolutely not buying this.
Now, maybe they have other evidence and we'll see it all and get it all.
And hey.
I'm not buying it.
They get the videos lined up and let's see the videos and see all this stuff and get the time code because all I know now, and they talked about it, not me, that DA talked about it.
The peg leg video, they haven't wanted to talk about.
The peg leg video is stamped at 1149 local.
1140.
steve bannon
There we are right there.
unidentified
Thank you, Denver.
God, you guys are on it.
You see his peg leg?
steve bannon
They kind of hid that for a couple days because they got the guy walking around in gym shorts.
unidentified
That's 1149 timestamped.
Probably can't see that time stamp.
The time stamp on him walking up the stairs is 1153, so four minutes.
The neighborhood's right there.
And he ain't peg legged.
I've looked at that thing.
Ain't no peg leg.
steve bannon
He bending them knees.
unidentified
So I'm just saying.
And so what did he do?
He got the rifle, put the barrel in the thing because now he could do it because he was so nervous of doing it in the street that he could do it.
Now, what are you talking about?
And he put the screwdriver or the special thing you need, and he actually could line up an old Mouser, bolt action, 30 odd six, and would be perfect alignment to take one kill shot.
And then, of course, obviously you leave the other bullets right there.
You have to because you and your lover sat there.
steve bannon
Remember when we did the thing?
unidentified
Gosh, would the lover sit there and hey, hey, fascist catch, what is that for?
You shooting rabbits with that?
Are these rabbits fascist?
So that's 1153 and he's walking up.
That gave him, what, 25 minutes, max or something like that, for a guy to get up on the roof, nobody see him, crouch down, and with his heart going, boom, boom, boom.
Talk, talk to Taj Gill and these brothers that are the killers at the Navy SEALs.
I mean the gunmen.
You got Navy SEALs, EOD guys, brave guys.
They go through the super training.
But then they got the guys that are there as the sharpshooters, the marksmen.
They'll tell you, with all their training, the best training in the world, that heart is beating out of your ribs, right?
Because they realize it could be the last second on earth that you have, like Charlie Kirk right there.
But Charlie Kirk didn't know it.
You know it.
So I ain't buying it.
Now, if they get all the videos together and things like that, could be different.
steve bannon
But I hope, as we argued on this show, when we flew out to Utah immediately, when we argued on this show, everybody in the Discord chat ought to be in there.
unidentified
The roommate, so the roommate said they didn't know it, B.S.
They talked about, you know, he talked about, don't you remember when we did the bullets?
The roommate ought to be up and they ought to have the clique lights right in front of him, sweating him out.
All of them.
Everybody in the Discord chat, the parents, the parents, get the parents in there.
steve bannon
I'm not buying any of it.
unidentified
Get them in there, all of them.
And Leahy's telling you, Leahy's article, you got to read this.
The whole death cult militia.
steve bannon
Have you heard that?
Was Biden telling you that?
unidentified
Wasn't it white nationalist extremists?
It was former military members.
It was traditional Catholics.
It was grandmothers praying the rosary, right?
Wasn't that all the problem?
Let's play.
I got another one.
A bigger beauty than Tom, as weak and gutless as Tom Tillis is.
I got a better one.
And that's this Cox guy.
And I'm really glad I want to say appreciation for all the Mormons that have reached out.
All the folks in Utah reached out and said, Steve, you do not know what's going on in this state.
Number one, it's been flooded with Californians, and they're an infestation.
I can tell you that from Arizona, from Montana, from Colorado.
It's an infestation.
And Texas better watch it.
When the California folks come, and yeah, some you got are good conservatives that can't take anymore, but you've got a lot of people from the Bay Area in Southern California who just got a lot of money and they want to just spread that virus everywhere.
Number one, the other is issues in the Mormon church.
It's not all what it seems or not what we remember as kind of these rock root people that are very boom.
steve bannon
Here's the way it is.
unidentified
You know, good family, strong, solid values, everything like that.
steve bannon
There's, hey, it's because Cox, I think when he re-elected with 56% of the vote, this guy's at his mealy mouth, and he's part of the problem.
unidentified
That's why I'm saying he's got to be part of the investigation because of the policies of his government and how it fed into the two groups like the armed queers of Salt Lake City and others.
Let's go ahead and play.
We have something that somebody sent me from Colorado about Cox.
I'm going to bring in Michael Patrick Leahy.
The truth.
Utah has been a great place to live.
Not because of our natural beauty or financial wealth.
Our strength has been our faith-based, family-centered culture.
But now this culture is under attack by gender and racial agendas, declining standards, open lawlessness, and by politicians who allow or even promote these evils.
People like Spencer Cox.
Cox promoted DEI and then at election time banned DEI.
That's politics.
But now it's been revealed that Cox used federal COVID funds to advance DEI in Utah schools.
And his recent ban will not apply.
And recently, our governor ran away from a reporter and hid.
Why?
Maybe it's new questions about Cox and illegals pouring in through Utah's backdoor sanctuary status.
This is Utah.
So why is Cox sharing his pronouns with children?
My preferred pronouns are he, him, and his.
And defending boys and girls' sports.
DEI in schools, no matter what they call it.
Racial preferences, even in healthcare.
Pride Month, Juneteenth.
His disagree better with liberals while he bullies conservatives.
His attack on party volunteers in the caucuses.
His elections are run like any Democrat state.
Same-day voting, no photo ID required.
And why do the feds consider Utah a state sanctuary for illegals?
Why did Cox run and hide from a reporter who wanted to ask that question?
We don't have to put up with this.
We can make a change right now.
It's election time.
Cox says he's a conservative.
Do not be fooled.
Don't believe the establishment polls.
Keep sharing this information.
Every Utahan deserves to know.
Nothing is more powerful than the truth.
Find out more at removecox.com.
Michael Patrick Leahy, you've had to deal with this.
You know, you've had to deal with this in the situation in Nashville.
This is poison.
Cox is a poisoner.
And he's too gutless to stand up even for his policy.
steve bannon
He's one of those slippery guys that wants to do it.
unidentified
He's passive, aggressive.
What am I, a conflict entrepreneur?
Hey, dude, whatever you call it, it's the war room.
We ain't slowing down.
steve bannon
We're not backing off.
unidentified
We're not, you know, guys like you and Tillis come and go.
Guys like you and Tillis come and go.
And when we get involved, normally you go faster.
And we're taking you as a project because you're poisonous.
That little mealymouth thing you did the other day, President Trump, and President Trump said, hey, he's doing a good job.
steve bannon
That's that staff there.
unidentified
Hey, somebody on that staff appointed Cox to speak the other night.
And I'm going to get to the bottom of it.
Who done it?
Okay, because it was not the president of these United States.
Michael Patrick Leahy, your thoughts?
What struck me in that video about Governor Cox was the DEI in the public schools.
This is the root of our problem, Steve.
And as you've seen, how many public school teachers have been either fired or disciplined for the awful things they said after Charlie Kirk was assassinated?
michael patrick leahy
We had it right here in Middle Tennessee.
unidentified
A teacher in Franklin High School has been basically put on leave for saying bad things.
The number of teachers, public school teachers, who have said terrible things about Charlie Kirk after his death is well over 10,000.
You know, I first saw this problem in our public schools here in Tennessee back in 2017.
You may recall we do this national constitution bee, and we've been trying to get a book we wrote about the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, into public schools.
I went to an event sponsored by the YWCA in 2017, Youth and Government, here in Nashville.
I was shocked, Steve.
About 90% of the teachers were socialists/slash Marxist, and it was about the same with the high school students who were there.
michael patrick leahy
That was 2017.
unidentified
This thing has metastasized, and that's why you see today, 26% of those under age 35, according to that Napolitan News Service poll by Scott Rasmussen, thought that the assassination of Charlie Kirk was at least partially justified.
michael patrick leahy
Just terrible.
unidentified
And we just have to stop it.
We've got to change the public schools.
We have to introduce choice into public schools.
But you guys, hang on, we talk about this.
steve bannon
It's private schools.
unidentified
It's SEL.
They get them early.
This is how you turn a neo-Marxist.
Let me play Mangioni.
You got Mangioni today.
He's treated like a rock star when he walks in.
You got, man, Donnie is going to win and blow guys out in November.
I've said this now for months and months and months.
You got this guy.
This guy is going to be a hero to these people.
He's going to be a hero to these people.
Okay?
It hasn't proven to me yet he shot it because I don't.
steve bannon
There's a great thing that Grace just sent me that in the text messages, he like checks every box.
unidentified
But they're going to treat this guy like a hero, a hero.
Let's go ahead and can I play Manchini?
Do I have some sound?
I get a couple seconds of sound.
steve bannon
No sound?
unidentified
Okay.
Anyway, today he was treated like a rock star when he showed up.
Mangioni, who gunned a guy down, shot him.
Very American.
steve bannon
Lying in wait, pre-dawn.
unidentified
The CEO walks down the street.
He comes out lying in wait, guns him down to point blank in the back.
That's the kind of guy this is, in the back.
Shot a guy like a dog and he bleeds out right there dead.
Just like the other guy shot or allegedly shot Charlie Kirk.
I want to get, if I can get this, okay.
And I don't know who sent this, but Grace just sent it to me.
This guy said, I try not to be a conspiracy theorist, but I have really hard time believing in a short text exchange.
The alleged shooter, and I'm a read, makes his confession, confirms the location of the weapon, confirms the type of weapon, confirms it was wrapped in a towel, confirms his motive, exonerates the decoy, George Zinn, admits to the bullet engravings, confirms the wardroom change, confirms how long he has been planning it, discloses the existence and location of a now-destroyed pre-written confession note, randomly tells his boyfriend that his dad is diehard MAGA, as if he wouldn't already know that given the nature of their relationship,
and is worried about his dad grandpa being upset if he doesn't come home with the rifle, not the fact that he just used it to commit a murder.
Not to mention a 22-year-old terminally online Zoomer uses phrases like squad car, drop point, swept the area.
My vehicle till I died of old age, etc.
I'll find out who put that up.
steve bannon
That is a perfect summary.
unidentified
That's a perfect summary.
So say we got a, you know, you haven't exposed us Butler yet.
You haven't disclosed Butler.
We don't know.
We know virtually no facts about Butler.
It's time to get in this.
Hey, if this is escalation, then tell us, you know, suck on that, dude, because you ain't seen us escalate.
steve bannon
We are going to demand not just the declared terrorist organizations, but there be a vast sweep.
unidentified
And everybody that touched us, including Cox, and what Cox did here, Cox and the wife, Abby Cox, need to be investigated about social-emotional learning, the empathy crisis, what they lied about, and what they forced into the system to poison, poison children in Utah.
Did I mention the queer, armed queers of Salt Lake City?
I mean, you can't make this up.
It was a script they thought after two of the top.
steve bannon
Leahy, I know you got a bounce.
We're about to get to a heart out.
unidentified
Where do people go to get all of your news organizations, your show, all of it?
I'll get you back up here as they get closer to getting into Memphis.
steve bannon
You've been the first guy to call it that Memphis is out of control.
unidentified
The President of the United States and the governor and senators from Tennessee agree with you, sir.
So there's going to be some action taken.
Where do people go?
What are your coordinates?
Where do people get you?
Go to TennesseeStar.com, TennesseeStar.com, and you can find me on X at Michael P. Leahy, Michael P. Leahy.
And if you text me a sane comment, I will respond.
Thank you, sir.
steve bannon
Appreciate it.
unidentified
You respond to mine, and a lot of mine aren't sane, but that's why I guess we're friends.
Leahy responds to mine.
They're not always sane.
Great guy, Michael Patrick Leahy.
Did so much great work and really opened our eyes to this whole situation in that brutal.
Remember Nashville?
She went through the school looking for the little kids, the six-year-olds, hunting them down.
These people are twisted.
It's a deep darkness that is enveloping us.
And it's not going to get better if you just roll over.
You just say, well, look, let's have dialogue.
steve bannon
No, we don't need dialogue.
unidentified
There's not a debate here.
steve bannon
There's nothing to debate.
unidentified
Charlie Kirk debated him.
In fact, what was in line was a guy asking about transgender, you know, the transgender crimes and Charlie's, I think, position on it.
Oh, yeah, that's just a random question.
What is that?
What are the odds of that?
steve bannon
Some of the mathematicians do it.
unidentified
Of all the different questions Charlie asks, even after Minnesota, add that, what is it?
I don't know, a bayonet one?
A bay in the one.
Come on, man.
We're going to hammer this again tomorrow.
I know you got so many questions.
steve bannon
One of the greatest Americans of modern times, just a good and decent man that would not back off, is not with us anymore physically.
unidentified
His spirit's with us and will continue to be with us as long as people keep that memory open of what he did and what he accomplished.
But we got to apply it.
It's got to happen now.
You don't have Trump for that much longer.
steve bannon
You don't have Trump forever.
unidentified
It's upon you, just like it was for the comeback.
You all could abandon him.
You didn't.
He's president of the United States.
And the hour is late.
So that's why no Tillis, no Cox.
We see your type.
You guys are dime a dozen, and you've always been with us.
The feckless, the cunning, the gutless.
Doesn't matter.
That's not what we are.
Okay?
We're going to win this one because there's no unity until after victory.
