| My name is Jacob Frye, Mayor of Minneapolis, and I want to speak directly to the Somali community. | ||
| Whether you come from Mogadishu, Getaway, Argesa, Bosaso, Medoa, or Kismayo, Minneapolis is your city. | ||
| You are a vital part of the fabric that makes our city strong, diverse, and united. | ||
| No matter what policies may be introduced by President Donald Trump, Minneapolis stands with you and values who you are and what you bring to our city. | ||
| I wish you all Aid Mubarak, and I hope you have a wonderful time with your loved ones. | ||
| Donald Trump's justification for the travel ban hinges on one Egyptian national who allowed his hatred for Netanyahu's actions to spill over into violence against innocent Jewish people in Colorado. | ||
| That logic is dangerous. | ||
| Holding entire nations accountable for the actions of a few individuals is the very same fallacy. | ||
| Here in Minneapolis, people of every background have broken the law. | ||
| And when they do, we hold them accountable as individuals. | ||
| That's how justice works. | ||
| The question is, you know, why is this a priority in a different kind of way? | ||
| The politicization of the DOJ and the FBI is undeniable. | ||
| So whether they are reliable narrators is the big question. | ||
| And this is what happens when you weaponize and politicize federal agencies that are not meant to be, you know, politicized. | ||
| And I think the American people are right to ask the question, well, can we trust you? | ||
| And that's a sad thing to say as an American. | ||
| Let's recall too that there's also other scandals in other states. | ||
| For example, the Mississippi welfare scandal. | ||
| And this is not unique to politics. | ||
| Americans know that. | ||
| But of course, the other factor here is that because it looks like the Somali population in Minnesota, the Somali immigrant population may have been involved in some way, those people are being scapegoated. | ||
| And that community is being scapegoated in a way that certainly serves the far right. | ||
| And so that's also something to keep an eye on. | ||
| And that's inappropriate, absolutely. | ||
| As-salamu alaykum. | ||
| My name is Peggy Flanagan. | ||
| I am the lieutenant governor of Minnesota and I'm really honored and humbled to be here with all of you today. | ||
| I am incredibly clear that the Somali community is part of the fabric of the state of Minnesota. | ||
| I think about my friendship with NIMCO. | ||
| We've been friends for almost 25 years. | ||
| And when I think of being part of Minnesota and growing up here, the Somali community has always been a part of my Minnesota. | ||
| So I want to just encourage the community to know that we're with you. | ||
| We've got your back. | ||
| I am here shopping today and just encourage other folks to show up, support our Somali businesses, support our immigrant neighbors. | ||
| And I know that things are scary right now. | ||
| And just know that there are more people who are looking out for you. | ||
| There are more people who are here to support you than you know. | ||
| I will continue to stand with the Somali community to be with you and to do all I can to return the friendship and community that the Somali community has shown me. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| So this is what happens when your own federal government wages war against you. | ||
| This is what happens when they target communities for their own benefit. | ||
| This is what happens when they scapegoat. | ||
| And this is what happens when they no longer hide the idea of white supremacy when you hear the Vice President of the United States talk about now white people won't have to apologize for being white. | ||
| That's never happened once in my whole damn life. | ||
| And I think everybody in this room knows what they're doing. | ||
| So we're here today to say enough of this. | ||
| We're here today to stand that Minnesota will protect their neighbors. | ||
| The Somali community here in Minneapolis has been welcoming and has shown love towards me, and I appreciate it. | ||
| Over the last three years we have been working together to try and address some of the real serious problems that we have in our community. | ||
| We have to be honest at times with the problems that we're having in our community and we need our community to help us fix those problems together because it's real and it's serious. | ||
| At the same time, if people have taken anything that I have said out of context in a way that's caused harm, I apologize and I'm sorry for that because that's not my intention at all. | ||

We stand with the Somali community every day. | |
| There are more than 8,000 Somali Americans who call Greater Boston home. | ||
| These are our neighbors, doctors and nurses, teachers, first responders, Boston police officers. | ||
| You cannot talk about any achievement that the city of Boston has had in safety, jobs, and economic development, in education, without talking about the Somali community that has lifted our city up. | ||
| We are proud and we are grateful for our Somali community and for our Somali American neighbors. | ||
| Boston and the country are clear that hate has no place in our society. | ||
| We will use every attack to actually strengthen and expand the services available to empower and work alongside our community members who are already doing so much good in the world and setting an example for the rest of the country. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| You're going to not get 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 try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| 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. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| It's Tuesday, 30 December, Year of the Lord, 2025. | ||
| We've got a lot of wood to chop here in the war today, so we're going to get on with it. | ||
| How we're going to go about this. | ||
| First off, there are two great pieces. | ||
| There's a lot more clips we're going to play. | ||
| The audience, we understood the audience can only have the capacity to take so much in a morning, particularly in what is a holiday week. | ||
| And I know your head's blowing up as it should be. | ||
| We could have put the defenses of this fraud. | ||
| It could have gone on forever. | ||
| But you have to understand, this is a feature of the system. | ||
| It's not a bug. | ||
| This is the deep corruption in how they bring the invaders in, how they pay for the invaders on your money. | ||
| And if you're struggling, I just want you to understand the politicians are laughing at you. | ||
| These illegal immigrants are laughing at you. | ||
| The way they brought them in here, they're laughing at you. | ||
| They're laughing at you. | ||
| You're struggling. | ||
| You're working. | ||
| You're paying for this. | ||
| They're making hundreds of thousands, not millions of dollars, and they're laughing at you. | ||
| And it has to be stopped. | ||
| Now you've got DOJ, you know, FBI, everybody surging. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| We can figure out why they didn't surge quicker or what they actually were doing. | ||
| But now you need all hands on deck on this. | ||
| And I know that at Treasury and the IRS and Treasury, money laundering and other operations are all this in many states. | ||
| You're going to see, as I said yesterday, we've been saying for weeks, this is in every blue state. | ||
| This is the reason they're going to the Supreme Court on the mass deportations. | ||
| This is why they are fighting President Trump so hard on him being commander-in-chief and federalizing the National Guard to go in and support ICE. | ||
| This is why they're fighting the ICE raids. | ||
| And so this has to be solved. | ||
| And there's only one way to solve it. | ||
| You got to shut down the money immediately. | ||
| You got to perp walk the politicians, the administrators, and the actual recipients themselves that did this. | ||
| And then they have to be mass deportation to get these people out of here. | ||
| This just has to be. | ||
| And it's going to be a fight. | ||
| You just see right there. | ||
| Whether it's the mayor of Boston, Michelle Wu, or whether it's Waltz in Minnesota or the Lieutenant Governor Flanagan, who I think was a Catholic or was a Catholic in a hijab. | ||
| This is a fight, and they're dug in because without these illegal amnesty refugee, illegal aliens, call them what you will, they can't win elections. | ||
| They cannot win elections because they don't have the votes. | ||
| They have to import these votes. | ||
| So this is going to be the fight right now to make sure that we can lance the boil. | ||
| So I'm going to start today, kind of an overview. | ||
| I want to bring in Mike Howe. | ||
| Mike, particularly, there's a Bloomberg article that, and I want to start at the broad because you're saying, hey, we got a problem here. | ||
| And the big problem is this whole thing of mass deportations and how actually we're going to get these folks out of the country and do it expeditiously, humanely, but it has to happen. | ||
| And they're saying there's some riffs inside not just the Trump administration, but also the MAGA movement. | ||
| I don't happen to believe. | ||
| I think it's more about actually how we execute on this. | ||
| But I don't want to steal your thunder. | ||
| You've been one of the warriors on this. | ||
| So take us through what Bloomberg says about this moment in time and what we're talking about about cleaning up this nation and getting the illegal alien invaders, whether they're phony asylum seekers, refugees, illegal aliens that came through the Biden administration brought in here, all of it. | ||
| Sir, the floor is yours. | ||
| So thank you, Steve. | ||
| About a month ago, I released a paper which is a deep statistical comparison of the 1954 Eisenhower operation for mass deportations and this past year under President Trump in his second term. | ||
| Now, recall President Trump on the campaign trail said he's going to beat Eisenhower, which is the record deportation numbers, and said that multiple times over. | ||
| That is a standard that was set. | ||
| And unfortunately, and there's a lot of reasons why, some political, some that can be fixed, some that are just harder to deal with. | ||
| But the reality is the administration is significantly off pace to meet Eisenhower levels. | ||
| Way I broke down the imperfect data is the Eisenhower administration in one year alone removed about 30% of the illegal population. | ||
| And now we're looking at this Trump first year, where it's way less than 5% if we're even being generous. | ||
| The actual deportation numbers are probably going to be at year-end, a little over 300,000. | ||
| You're going to be greeted with a bunch of other numbers used to make up higher figures that are based on estimates and what I call funding numbers. | ||
| And this is all complicated because the administration has stopped releasing the actual numbers. | ||
| Even Democrat administrations on a monthly basis release the ICE numbers. | ||
| So suffice to say, we were told mass deportations would happen and it's not. | ||
| We're getting mass communications and kind of, you know, meme-y edgelord stuff from the communication staffers. | ||
| But on the ground, we're closer than a little better than Obama and we're dealt a far worse hand because of the invasion of the Biden administration. | ||
| So a lot needs to change. | ||
| The administration needs to go on offense instead of being on defense. | ||
| They're too afraid of Democrats saying you can only deport criminals. | ||
| They don't want to do work site enforcement because special interest is poking out the political divide. | ||
| And you're right. | ||
| It's not a divide in the MAGA base. | ||
| It's a divide in the elected leadership and special interests that are asserting kind of the limiting principle on the administration's deportation efforts. | ||
| Okay, let's go back. | ||
| Do you include? | ||
| Because one of the things they point to, and Rosemary Jenks, she'll be on later. | ||
| She backs up. | ||
| There's around 2 million that have just self-deported, seeing that the enforcement efforts were coming, just figured life is going to be too hard in the shadows, in the gray zones, because these gray zones are going to have a spotlight put on them. | ||
| Do you include the 300,000 is the reported number of actually extractions, right? | ||
| And a lot of that is just focused on bad ombre. | ||
| But have you, did you calculate in here to get to the, because you're also dealing with a different denominator? | ||
| I mean, Eisenhower didn't have to deal with an administration before him that had basically set up a system for 10 to 15 to 20 million illegal aliens come in here on top of everything they do on all these scams on the visa side. | ||
| Hang on, I'm going to hold you. | ||
| We're going to get into this this morning. | ||
| Also, other breaking news. | ||
| We're going to go to Taiwan. | ||
| We got geopolitics and capital markets in the second hour of this morning. | ||
| If you're following capital markets, gold's going to finish, I think, this year. | ||
| Best year it's had since 1979. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Silver on a tear and then a drop and then a tear. | ||
| As Philip Patrick said, it's best probably talk to Birch Gold and find out what's going on there. | ||
| Take your phone out and text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N-989898. | ||
| Get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and precious metals. | ||
| No obligation, totally free, all of it. | ||
| Most importantly, you get contact with Philip Patrick and his team. | ||
| He is overseas, he's in London, but his team's working 24/7 as they should be. | ||

| Historic times as the BRICS nations of the world's beaten up on the good old U.S. dollar. | ||
| Find out what's going on. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to get to all of this this morning on the mass deportations to come next. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Like I said, it's end of the year time now, I think. | ||
| To check your asset allocation, of course, gold and silver have been on a roll, but it's not the price. | ||
| It's the process. | ||
| Find out why. | ||
| You need to understand this. | ||
| That's where you got to go to Birch Gold. | ||
| BirchGold.com, promo code banned, end of the dollar empire. | ||
| Articles on Drudge, articles on the great Citizen Kane citizen free press, all these links to the dollar getting beat up. | ||
| We've been talking about this for, in fact, one of the headlines was the decline of the dollar empire. | ||
| We've been talking about this for years. | ||
| Make sure you get up to speed on it. | ||
| Go check it out. | ||
| Talk to the Birch Gold guys today. | ||
| So, how? | ||
| Is it a fair comparison to compare it to Eisenhower and his operation, or is it, do you have to look at a broader picture here, particularly the mess that President Trump's been handed? | ||
| I mean, this is actually, folks, I think worse and a harder one to solve than the stopping the kinetic wars, the kinetic part of the Third World War. | ||
| And we got some interesting news on that. | ||
| The Polish Prime Minister Tusk, who is as anti-Trump as you can possibly get, has just said in a meeting over in Europe that there's been a commitment of American troops on the line of contact in Ukraine. | ||
| So I know that that can't possibly be true, but that's what they're spreading over in Europe that peace is at hand. | ||
| But that problem, as tough as Middle East, Venezuela, Taiwan, and the Taiwan Straits in Ukraine are, I think this is harder. | ||
| One, the radical left, and you see, they're not backing down. | ||
| They're up in your face. | ||
| I wanted that, your heads blew up in that coal open. | ||
| I want you to see what we're up against, what President Trump's up against. | ||
| Now, behind the scenes, the business community backs them 100%. | ||
| How, isn't that the heart of the problem here? | ||
| Is that to get to the mass deportation phase, you've got, and our goal of a 10-year moratorium on all immigration is that big business here wants cheaper wages, whether it's working class African Americans and Hispanic American citizens. | ||
| They've imported the world and they're fine to do that to drive down wages and make sure they don't have benefits. | ||
| This is why the medical systems collapse. | ||
| This is why the education systems collapse. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| That's a working class problem. | ||
| And at the middle class, they don't care that your kids got to compete with people from all over the world in their own hometown or for jobs that they should have in these big tech companies. | ||
| So isn't the problem that the business community fights President Trump every day? | ||
| And if you counted the 2 million that have left and the statistical analysis that CIS and Rosemary Drinks and others have done says it's somewhere, I don't know, between a million and a half and two million folks have left. | ||
| Wouldn't those numbers look at least somewhat better? | ||
| Yeah, so a lot's unpacked there. | ||
| And of course, it is different seven years from Eisenhower. | ||
| The judicial system's out of control. | ||
| Illegals are spread through multiple industries and geographically across the entire country. | ||
| Whereas in 54, it was primarily the Southwest and in AG. | ||
| But putting that aside for a second and going through some of the other things you flagged, the 2 million number, with all due respect to my colleagues that pumped that number, is an estimate based on survey data. | ||
| It is not the best available data source, and I frankly think it's wildly too high. | ||
| And the best data source would be the illegals that actually took the $1,000 to self-deport. | ||
| We offered monetary rewards for them. | ||
| I bet you that number who took the 1,000, which was up to 3,000 over the holidays, is probably less than 100,000. | ||
| And there's a reason why that number's not out. | ||
| And so statisticians who support and want to give the administration some months have come up with what I think is frankly a funny number and a little bit of wish casting. | ||
| It's not the best available number. | ||
| As it relates to special interest, that is, I would say, one head of a two-headed snake we're dealing with right now. | ||
| Yes, we need to understand that the chief funders of the Republican Party are in part these industries, and they have particularly deep connections to this administration. | ||
| Whether it's the agriculture sector or hospitality or restaurants, people in the MAGA base need to start viewing them the same light. | ||
| We talk about the Chamber of Commerce. | ||
| It's the same deal. | ||
| And we also need to make it as economically impossible for illegal aliens to stay in the United States apart from just working. | ||
| That means the schools they treat as daycare, the health services, all the other welfare programs that end up trickling money down to them. | ||
| It should be prohibitive economically for them to be here and remain here. | ||
| Second is the political problem. | ||
| A lot of Republicans don't want to talk about anything but deporting criminal illegal aliens. | ||
| They want a rule where basically you can't get deported until you kill someone. | ||
| And that's a really dumb rule. | ||
| But politically, it's free chicken for them because they can just talk about criminals. | ||
| And the administration, unfortunately, has given into that wing of the party. | ||
| If you look at DHS's website, you're only going to see things about worst of the worst. | ||
| They aren't going to be talking about work site raids and stuff. | ||
| And so the base needs to fix the politics of this and reset kind of the agenda to be the one that President Trump promised and laid out. | ||
| I think that's how we get over the hurdle. | ||
| What's your recommendation? | ||
| If you were in the Oval and Mar-a-Lago and went in for a cup of coffee with the president, what are the two or three things that Mike Howell would say? | ||
| Mr. President, here, it's pretty straightforward. | ||
| It's going to take political muscle, but here's what I would recommend you do to get to the heart of this mass deportation problem. | ||
| Yeah, so I would first start off by saying that this next to the accountability agenda is what Trump 2's legacy will be judged on, and frankly, the entirety of it. | ||
| And so we got to do it. | ||
| And it's not being done now. | ||
| And I think people have caught up to that fact. | ||
| And so to do it, a firm reset of expectations across the government that this is going to be a whole of government exercise to push not only the deportation levers, but every other advantage illegals get from the feds and the states to make it as impossible for them to stay here. | ||
| So not just ice, we're bringing in everybody. | ||
| Number two is you got to go to where the illegals are. | ||
| And that is, you know, worksite enforcement and then other force multipliers like the parents of anchor babies. | ||
| You can remove in larger numbers when you focus on quantity instead of just the quality that's the safe political in the worst of the worst. | ||
| And so be thinking that your priority now is quantity and not quality. | ||
| And once you do that and the numbers start to get commas in them, we need two commas in the deportation numbers regularly in the millions. | ||
| Right now we got one comma. | ||
| But once you start doing that, people will get the message and illegals will self-deport. | ||
| They're not self-deporting now, nowhere close to 2 million. | ||
| But once you actually deport, they'll start self-deporting. | ||
| So that would be my message. | ||
| Mike Howell, where is I want to make sure people read, you know, you've got New Year's Eve, it's going to be a little slow, New Year's Day. | ||
| I want people to get access to your information. | ||
| Where do they go? | ||
| Yeah, follow me on X at mHowell Tweets and the Oversight Projects at It's YourGov and the paper's up there and we're frequently pushing it. | ||
| Mike Howell, thank you so much. | ||
| Great way to start the show. | ||
| Fantastic. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| Mike House is given to you with the bark on. | ||
| We're all trying to help here, but we've got to get serious about this. | ||
| Let me play. | ||
| I got Mike Lindell. | ||
| I want to play, if I can, quickly, can I play the Lieutenant Governor and Governor Waltz again from the cold open? | ||
| I want to play some people who just, yes, yes, yes, I know. | ||
| I want to rub your nose in it, but let's go ahead and repeat this so we can get Lindell's observations. | ||
| As-salamu alaykum, my name is Peggy Flanagan. | ||
| I am the Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota, and I'm really honored and humbled to be here with all of you today. | ||
| I am incredibly clear that the Somali community is part of the fabric of the state of Minnesota. | ||
| I think about my friendship with NIMCO. | ||
| We've been friends for almost 25 years. | ||
| And when I think of being part of Minnesota and growing up here, the Somali community has always been a part of my Minnesota. | ||
| So I want to just encourage the community to know that we're with you. | ||
| We've got your back. | ||
| I am here shopping today and just encourage other folks to show up, support our Somali businesses, support our immigrant neighbors. | ||
| And I know that things are scary right now. | ||
| And just know that there are more people who are looking out for you. | ||
| There are more people who are here to support you than you know. | ||
| I will continue to stand with the Somali community to be with you and to do all I can to return the friendship and community that the Somali community has shown me. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| So this is what happens when your own federal government wages war against you. | ||
| This is what happens when they target communities for their own benefit. | ||
| This is what happens when they scapegoat. | ||
| And this is what happens when they no longer hide the idea of white supremacy when you hear the vice president of the United States talk about now white people won't have to apologize for being white. | ||
| That's never happened once in my whole damn life. | ||
| And I think everybody in this room knows what they're doing. | ||
| So we're here today to say enough of this. | ||
| We're here today to stand that Minnesota will protect their neighbors. | ||
| Enough of this. | ||
| Mike Lindell, you're running for governor. | ||
| Let's say you got the lieutenant governor right there, cosplaying a Muslim. | ||
| And then you've got the governor who's directly responsible and accountable for this mess, sir. | ||
| It's disgusting. | ||
| I mean, this is the biggest cover-up of the biggest fraud in United States history. | ||
| I mean, everyone, they got to be put in prison, all the ones that did this. | ||
| And it's got to be accountable right up to the governor that he let it happen under his watch, everybody. | ||
| And right now, Steve, this came out yesterday. | ||
| Lisa Damuth, the head of the Speaker of the House, a Republican, by the way, a person I'm running against for governor, they come out yesterday and go, yeah, we knew about this last February, and boy, the Democrats Waltz said nothing about it. | ||
| Well, what did you guys do about it? | ||
| I mean, they should have been sounding the alarm for us in Minnesota that, hey, this is going on. | ||
| They should have went to the and got this, went right to a police report and say, this is so blatant. | ||
| There's no children in these daycares. | ||
| I mean, and Steve is despicable. | ||
| And then they act like, oh, we all want this Somalians that we want them there in Minnesota, that they're part of our, part of support these communities. | ||
| Their waltz is trying to cover up and deflect, deflect, deflect. | ||
| And Minnesota media, when this came out, Steve, back in January, KSTP came out with a big report on this fraud, finally. | ||
| And the Republicans, they did like Lisa Damuth did. | ||
| They did nothing as far as I'm concerned. | ||
| That's why running for governor, you know, when you hear something like this, you take care of it that day. | ||
| You don't let up the gas. | ||
| You get, you know, it's action. | ||
| We got, you better fix this now. | ||
| You get rid of these programs. | ||
| I don't know why they were set up in the first place. | ||
| All these daycares you need that they, and by the way, Steve, one of the daycares that actually had children had so many violations, they put them under probation or whatever, and they still got $8 million. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Hang on for one second. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| The reason they do it, Mike, James O'Keefe broke it. | ||
| They have a ballot harvesting operation. | ||
| Somalians run a ballot harvesting operation. | ||
| This is not a bug. | ||
| This is a feature of the system. | ||
| I'm going to get you to read Daily Signal's got Jared Stepman. | ||
| He's got an article about this. | ||
| This is the way they fund it. | ||
| This is the way the system works. | ||
| They're laughing at you. | ||
| They're laughing in your face. | ||
| Your hard work, your effort, your tax dollars, all of it. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| Let the Republicans off the hook here because mass migration from the third world into the United States was a bipartisan failure. | ||
| For example, Tom Emmer, the number three House member on the Republican side from the state of Minnesota, was ardently in favor of this mass invasion of Somalis into the United States. | ||
| And it has been disastrous even outside of the outrageous fraud. | ||
| Yes, this criminality is the most offensive aspect of it. | ||
| However, for most Americans, it's not the crime that matters so much. | ||
| It's the mass migration that competes with Americans in the labor market, that competes with them in the housing market, that makes their life unaffordable, that makes the standard of living for working class Americans decline. | ||
| We know that nationwide right now, the majority of immigrant-headed households in America are on some form of welfare, a means-tested benefit from the American taxpayers. | ||
| That means we are not doing immigration correctly. | ||
| And I say this as an immigrant son. | ||
| We have, as American citizens, every right, and I would argue every obligation to say that immigration exists to serve the existing citizens of the United States. | ||
| And if it does not, we need to stop it. | ||
| So, of course, stop and prosecute criminality. | ||
| But there's a bigger issue here of who are we prioritizing. | ||
| And the Dems overwhelmingly, and too many Republicans simply want to prioritize foreigners over American citizens. | ||
| And this horrific example of abuse of generosity from American citizens, I hope it will compel a much bigger conversation about what we're doing with immigration. | ||
| Yeah, Emmer, he made himself head of the Samaya caucus. | ||
| You got the person you run against, the woman you're running against, the speaker, she's another disaster. | ||
| They've all been disasters, right? | ||
| Some are just kind of looking the other way and going along with it. | ||
| And of course, the Radical Democrats are trying to change, radically change the United States by bringing in the third world here, which they can then control with tax money stolen from taxpayers. | ||
| Mike Lindell, what are you going to do about it? | ||
| Yeah, this Lisa Damuth, she's just the Speaker of the House. | ||
| These guys have done nothing. | ||
| See, that was perfect right there, what they just said. | ||
| This is a big problem, even if you take the fraud out of it. | ||
| You've got to stop these programs that they're taking advantage of. | ||
| You've got to put the ones that are here illegally, get rid of them immediately, deport them. | ||
| And you've got to re-look at these programs if they're even needed, because they're bringing in, they're not helping the people that are here. | ||
| And all these people like when is Keith Ellison, the radical Muslim Attorney General of Minnesota, going to stop attacking your Christian centers for trying to get people off drugs and start going after the Muslim community here that's ripping off, committing felonies every day. | ||
| When is his prejudice against Christians, his anti-Christian bias going to be diverted and to go after all the Muslims that are ripping people off? | ||
| And Walls and Flanagan, I think she's Catholic, go off Flanagan cosplaying a Muslim, right? | ||
| Oh, they all change. | ||
| It's humiliating for her. | ||
| Well, someone needs to investigate them, Steve. | ||
| You need to investigate them. | ||
| It's not going to change. | ||
| Keith Ellison has turned it up on me now because we also have not just my Christian network, but my foundation where you have a replacement for these welfare platforms that are put into place that people are using to fraud and then people coming in and taking advantage of these. | ||
| And he's not going to let up. | ||
| And we can only pray that they get exposed. | ||
| And if they were part of this, they need to be put in prison too. | ||
| What they're doing to our country, starting with Keith Ellison, it's despicable. | ||
| It's illegal. | ||
| They don't love her. | ||
| He doesn't love her country. | ||
| He's got there. | ||
| You have a completely different agenda. | ||
| And it's an evil agenda. | ||
| Steve is pure evil. | ||
| You know, one of the things coming back to me as one of the first things as governor, I mean, you got the Minnesota flag right here, but there's also a statue sitting in the capital, a satanic statue that's got to go immediately. | ||
| They gave Waltz an award because he's back to saintness or whatever. | ||
| It's disgusting. | ||
| These people are evil. | ||
| They're running our state and they're letting all this happen. | ||
| It needs to change. | ||
| And you can't have the establishment of these people like the Speaker of the House yesterday that comes out. | ||
| They knew in February this Lisa Damuth. | ||
| No, I'm sorry. | ||
| I want to be the next governor of Minnesota. | ||
| I will take care of these problems immediately. | ||
| And by the way, everybody, we need your help. | ||
| MikeLindellGov.com. | ||
| We need it now. | ||
| We're going into all these debates in January with people like Lisa Dama. | ||
| I'm going to be debating them. | ||
| These governor debates. | ||
| There's like 12 candidates. | ||
| I need to be the one. | ||
| And I need your help. | ||
| MikeLindellGov.com, Steve. | ||
| Mike, thank you so much. | ||
| Keep fighting. | ||
| It's a fight that we need for the country. | ||
| Minnesota to the new beating heart of this. | ||
| Cortez, Emmer, the entire Republican establishment, you don't get 20 million illegal alien invaders into the country, plus all the scams. | ||
| We're calling for, we've been doing it for a while, but now we've got to bang the drum even louder. | ||
| A 10-year moratorium on all immigration until we get to the bottom of all the, because every visa program, every immigration, the legal immigration program, they're all scams. | ||
| All of them are scams. | ||
| H-1B visas being the worst. | ||
| Steve Cortez, your thoughts. | ||
| You know, regarding Tom Emmer, with friends like these, we don't need opponents in the political arena. | ||
| So here is the message to Tom Emmer from Patriotic Americans. | ||
| You are one of the arsonists who cause this fire, and you do not then get the privilege of complaining about the damage caused by the very conflagration which you helped to start. | ||
| All right, so show a bit of humility and honesty. | ||
| Right now, Tom Emmer is coming out with tough guy statements stating how he's going to start expelling Somalis, using rough language in his posts. | ||
| Guess what, Tom Emmer? | ||
| The internet is forever. | ||
| We know what you did, and we have the receipts. | ||
| And speaking of receipts, if we can show, please, chart number one, which I sent over. | ||
| This is from the Minnesota Star Tribune, not exactly a right-wing publication. | ||
| And there you have it in the headline from 2015. | ||
| Steve, you mentioned Keith Ellison, the radical Muslim in Minnesota. | ||
| Keith Ellison and Tom Emmer, guess what? | ||
| They're chums together. | ||
| They created the Somalia caucus together all the way back in 2015. | ||
| And by the way, Tom Emmer also, you can go to my social media, I show the receipts. | ||
| Tom Emmer also verifies this in his own words on his own social media posts from that time. | ||
| He also castigated one of his constituents in Minnesota who complained about the influx of Somali migrants, who just pointed out the reality that they are not assimilating into American society. | ||
| And what did Tom Emmer do? | ||
| He played the race card very predictably. | ||
| So realize that we're not just up against the Dems. | ||
| Yes, the Dems are unanimous in their radical open borders, pro-third world extremism. | ||
| But there are a lot of pro-business Republicans, many of them in positions of great power, like Tom Emmer, number three Republican on the House side, who are totally aligned with the radicals when it comes to these migration issues. | ||
| And I've been dismayed, unfortunately, in the last 24 hours or so, Steve, to see a lot of very good folks on the right on social media who have been retweeting these tough statements in the last 24 hours from Tom Emmer. | ||
| Now, I hope that they're just ignorant of the reality of who he is and not complicit With his dishonesty and his hypocrisy, but it's really important for those of us in the patriotic populist movement to realize who our real allies are here. | ||
| This mass migration from the third world, which has been so destructive to the United States and destructive way beyond this fraud. | ||
| Yes, the fraud is horrendous and offensive in every way and criminal. | ||
| And a lot of people need to go to prison for a long time. | ||
| A lot of people need to get deported. | ||
| But the bigger offense against the American people is the importation of a replacement population in a very deliberate way that competes with Americans every single day in the labor market, in the housing market, in the educational markets of the United States and makes life harder for working class Americans while it enriches a credentialed elite who benefit from this kind of borderless globalism. | ||
| So Tom Emmer and his ilk need to be called out by the right. | ||
| And if there's a silver blessing to this horrendous event in Minnesota, it's that hopefully it's going to wake a lot of Americans up. | ||
| That not only do we need to stop illegal migration, we need to significantly restrict and in my view, stop legal migration to the United States, at least temporarily. | ||
| Well, temporarily for me is 10 years. | ||
| That's what it's going to take. | ||
| Well, I'm fine with that. | ||
| 10-year more terminal. | ||
| Steve, one question. | ||
| You know, Hal brings it up. | ||
| The Bloomberg people notice it right away because it's a business issue that you have guys like Yemer. | ||
| They're hiding behind the bad hombres. | ||
| We got to get the criminal element out here, the bad ombres. | ||
| And that whole wing is trying to make sure we don't get to mass deportations. | ||
| Your thoughts on that? | ||
| Look, of course, prioritizing the bad ombres makes sense. | ||
| Get the dangerous people out first. | ||
| But this deportation operation needs to be far bigger than that because, again, it's not just the brazen criminality once they're here in the United States. | ||
| Let's remember, they're all criminals for trespassing into our home. | ||
| And anyone who breaks into your home is de facto a criminal. | ||
| But let's, of course, prioritize the most dangerous ones. | ||
| But again, when it comes to everyday quality of life, when it comes to prosperity for Americans, when it comes to getting your children into the flagship university of their state, let's remember how much life has been degraded, how much quality of life has suffered from illegal migration to this country. | ||
| And I would argue, from far too much legal migration to this country, from far too many worker visas, from far too many foreign students, especially from China at American schools. | ||
| It is time for us to prioritize Americans. | ||
| And if it takes a scandal of this magnitude from a third world hellhole Somalia, where one-third of their GDP is based on remittances, by the way, think about that for a moment. | ||
| If it takes a scandal of this magnitude to shake Americans and to wake them up to this reality that this country belongs to us, and that there's nothing merciful, there's nothing compassionate about prioritizing people from across the world before you prioritize the people who live down the street from you, the people in your community, your American brothers and sisters. | ||
| That is actually the moral choice. | ||
| It's the logical choice. | ||
| And it's what the American people have demanded and deserve. | ||
| They've demanded it at the ballot box. | ||
| Now we must fulfill that. | ||
| Donald Trump has done amazing work at closing the border. | ||
| Now we need to accelerate the deportations. | ||
| They cannot be limited only to people who committed additional crimes once they broke into our country. | ||
| And again, hopefully this scandal in Minnesota, and I think this scandal will widen, right? | ||
| We see a lot of evidence. | ||
| Similar things are happening in Columbus, Ohio, similar things in Maine, probably all over the country. | ||
| Hopefully this scandal is going to wake people up that this country belongs to us. | ||
| And there's nothing selfish about saying that. | ||
| As a matter of fact, it is actually the altruistic thing to say, I am my brother's keeper. | ||
| My brother is an American who lives in my neighborhood who is struggling right now. | ||
| And we need to take care of him. | ||
| We need to take care of his family before we worry about Somalians who mass migrate to our country, don't assimilate, and then have the gall to rob us blind and to take advantage of our generosity. | ||
| And they are then protected by powerful people like Tom Emmer, who wants to now pretend that he's a tough guy and who wants to pretend that he's a pro-sovereignty, America first patriotic poppins. | ||
| No, he is not, and we're exposing him with his own receipts. | ||
| Yeah, coming in with the tough guy hockey routine, right? | ||
| When it's when it's always been exposed by other people, when he was part of the problem. | ||
| Let me repeat this. | ||
| The Republican establishment is a big part of the problem here with these radicals supporting these radical Marxists and jihadists. | ||
| Steve, where do people go to get your investigative reports, all your content? | ||
| Yes, please go to CortezInvestigates.com. | ||
| Cortez with an S at the end. | ||
| You can also follow me on X Twitter. | ||
| I'm at Cortez Steve. | ||
| Thank you so much, Steve. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| Happy New Year. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| Happy New Year. | ||
| Do I have Glenn Story? | ||
| Is Glenn Story up yet? | ||
| Okay, we're tracking down Glenn Story. | ||
| Can I put up? | ||
| So today, Kash Patel just announced, the FBI just announced, I think they rolled up in Texas at least one individual who was planning a terrorist attack. | ||
| They say he's ISIS affiliated. | ||
| We'll get more information on that. | ||
| We are going to be in Texas on 9 January for an event. | ||
| Yeah, we can get the graphic up there in the link to the page. | ||
| Geert Wilderss and myself are going to be there, plus others. | ||
| That's who has announced so far. | ||
| We're going to have an event on 9 January at Grapevine, Texas. | ||
| And we're going to talk about the Islamization of the state of Texas and what you can do as a Texan to roll it back. | ||
| It's going to be a powerhouse night. | ||
| Wilders is the most well-known, I think, of the leading politicians in Europe that foresaw this and has been fighting it for 20 years. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to turn in the war room in just a moment. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Grossman Jinx joins us. | ||
| Rosemary, before I get to, there's an article out about what the Trump administration is doing, and you've got some ideas on that and how the courts are trying to fight him. | ||
| But just give me your overall assessment of what you've heard so far this morning, man. | ||
| Well, I would say, first of all, that Mike Howell is absolutely correct that we have to focus on workside enforcement. | ||
| If every illegal alien in this country doesn't recognize that every step outside his door he takes puts him at risk of deportation, including going to work, he is not going to self-deport. | ||
| The only way to get the self-deportation numbers up is to do worksite enforcement. | ||
| We need employers going to jail for hiring illegal aliens. | ||
| They've been getting away with it for 30 years. | ||
| It needs to end. | ||
| We need some examples made, and we need serious worksite enforcement if those deportation numbers are going to go up. | ||
| We have, you know, Tom Homan promising 10,000 additional ICE agents, and that's fantastic. | ||
| We need all those agents, but they're going to have to focus on worksite enforcement. | ||
| I also completely agree, obviously, that we need a 10-year moratorium. | ||
| That should be a no-brainer at this point. | ||
| The fact is that both parties in politics are complicit in our immigration system. | ||
| They designed it. | ||
| It's working exactly as they intended for their cheap labor buddies, and it needs to stop. | ||
| Now is the time. | ||
| We cannot have our young Americans doing everything they're supposed to do and not be able to afford to start a family, not be able to afford to own a house, and yet their taxes are paying for foreigners in our country to steal billions of dollars through fraud. | ||
| It's disgusting. | ||
| It's unsustainable. | ||
| It's got to stop. | ||
| You know, was Ecclesiastes tells us there's a time and a season for everything. | ||
| And of course, for many of you, particularly folks that go back with us to the Breitbart days and to some of the films we made about this back, I don't know, 2009, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, some of the huge battles we had in those years. | ||
| In fact, Dave Bratt, our co-host here and the chairman of your organization, really won coming out of nowhere. | ||
| The biggest upset, I think, in at least primaries, because the first time a sitting majority leader in the history of this nation had ever lost in a primary. | ||
| That was Eric Kerner down in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia, against Dave Bratt. | ||
| And Brad had nothing. | ||
| He had a couple of nickels to rub together, and it was on this issue, right? | ||
| Where would you recommend, and so you've shifted now, you've shifted because you used to be at Numbers USA, Numbers USA, CIS, you guys did all this analysis for years, was the backbone of really this movement to make sure it put American citizens first. | ||
| But then you shift it over, and we talked about this a lot. | ||
| You shifted over and formed this new organization because you said, hey, look, the math is the math. | ||
| And now you've got President Trump. | ||
| You've got an entire, we've changed at least the voting base of the Republican Party to focus on this and understand what a huge issue it is. | ||
| And this, and the audience is 1,000% for the good of the country, for the good of their fellow citizens, and for their children and grandchildren and their communities. | ||
| Everybody's united in this, but there's a huge headwind. | ||
| And you have to address the fact that you've guys got like guys like Tom Emmer. | ||
| They're going to work forget all these illegal aliens in here and all these migrants in here. | ||
| And then the moment the spotlight gets put on them for the, not just the theft, but the way the system's organized to perpetuate this and to empower them and to give them money, right? | ||
| And that's, and then they vote for the radical left. | ||
| You know, all of a sudden Emmer's like, he's tougher than Mike Howell. | ||
| Well, this is the hangup we have right now to shift to mass deportations, which is fighting President Trump nonstop. | ||
| They want to focus just on the criminal element. | ||
| And the business community is fighting nonstop behind the scenes to make sure we don't segue to really get to the heart of it. | ||
| The heart of it is that, hey, you've got 10 or 15 million, 20 million illegal aliens came in on Biden's watch. | ||
| They all have to go. | ||
| They all have to go. | ||
| If you allow any of them to stay, then you're just sending a signal in the future that people can come and just do it. | ||
| There's going to be no enforcement and no penalty for actually trying to do it. | ||
| But it's the business community that's fighting you. | ||
| How do you segue to get to work site enforcement? | ||
| And what industry sectors would you recommend the administration start in, ma'am? | ||
| So first of all, I just want to say that, you know, every single thing that President Trump does, and he has done some amazing things on this issue, really fantastic, made a massive difference in this country. | ||
| Every single thing he has done can be undone when he leaves office, unless Congress does something, anything. | ||
| Congress needs to step up. | ||
| One of the most important things that President Trump has done in the Republican Party is to shift it away from the Chamber of Commerce and toward Americans. | ||
| That needs to continue. | ||
| We've got more members, more Republican members of Congress who actually believe in America and Americans, but there aren't enough yet. | ||
| And we need to change that. | ||
| We need to put the blame for our immigration system squarely where it belongs. | ||
| And that is on Congress, both parties of Congress. | ||
| They designed this. | ||
| They have to fix this so that it can be fixed permanently. | ||
| And the first step in that, of course, is a moratorium. | ||
| In order to get to work site enforcement, all we have to do is for President Trump to give the order to ICE to start focusing on worksite enforcement. | ||
| The obvious industries are, unfortunately for President Trump, hotels, restaurants, the hospitality industry, the agriculture industry, construction. | ||
| You know, we have seen a lot of complaints from employers in, for example, Texas construction companies saying, well, we can't get construction done because we don't have any workers. | ||
| Well, guess what? | ||
| If you've been hiring illegal aliens for the last 20 years, that's your own fault. | ||
| We have a system called e-Verify that is free to employers. | ||
| They can use that system to ensure that their workforce is legal. | ||
| They should be using it. | ||
| If they're not, it's their own fault and too bad for you because we must get every one of these illegal aliens out of our country. | ||
| That is the minimum, minimum that we have to do to ensure that Americans have good jobs, that wages can increase. | ||
| I mean, it's just a simple matter of supply and demand. | ||
| If you tighten the labor force, wages go up. | ||
| That's the point. | ||
| We want wages to go up so Americans can afford to live. | ||
| And by the way, it'd be a nice benefit if they didn't have to pay billions of dollars in fraud by foreign nationals. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| Taxes that go to these guys are laughing in your face as they get wealthy and you grind away. | ||
| Hang on for a second because of some specifics. | ||
| The Trump administration is tightening the screws. | ||
| Of course, the courts are going to fight them. | ||
| Who's my jinx? | ||
| Also, the Wall Street Journal, my favorite paper. | ||
| The editorial section, which is really my favorite. | ||
| They're so pro-war room, pro-MAGA. | ||
| They're up in arms. | ||
| They're saying there was no stealing of any election down in Georgia. | ||
| That's all nonsense. | ||
| All a bunch of conspiracy theory from the war room posse. |
