Sharia Law Threats
00:08:29

||
| Islamic jihadis are plotting against you. | ||
| Why in the hell you think they're in Houston and the north of Dallas? | ||
| They are working together to overthrow Western civilization. | ||

Sharia compounds, which are areas governed by religious rules. | |
| We know who you are, we know what you are, and we know what you're trying to accomplish. | ||
| And it is not going to happen in the jewel of the crown of the union of this republic. | ||
| We purge any attempt to impose Sharia law in Texas. | ||

|
The Amath coming. | |
| They are already here. | ||
| You are not here properly, and you're going to leave. | ||
| On the 3rd of March, Sharia law goes on the ballot in the state of Texas. | ||
| The United States Constitution and Sharia are fundamentally at odds with one another. | ||
| We're going to tell them, take your Sharia law and shove it. | ||

Islam will never dominate the United States. | |
| And by the grace of God, it will not dominate Texas. | ||
| As Texas goes, so goes the nation. | ||
| As the nation goes, so goes the world. | ||
| Are you prepared to fight for this state? | ||
| Are you prepared to fight for your country? | ||

War Room, Texas. | |
| Your host, Stephen K. Bannon, starts right now. | ||
| It's Tuesday, January 20th, in the year of our Lord 2026. | ||
| It is the first anniversary of President Trump's first year of the miraculous return. | ||
| Colonel Keith Self joins us. | ||
| Colonel, first off, we started this morning with the Secretary of Treasury in Davos live. | ||
| We had him for about a half hour. | ||
| And one of the things we talked about is the situation in Greenland and all this, but it underpins this issue about NATO and about the defense of the United States. | ||
| And what underpins that is the national security strategy memo that came out that's 33 pages long. | ||
| It's kind of an overview. | ||
| It's required by law for the president to put it out, the commander-in-chief. | ||
| He put it out in being 33 pages as an overview. | ||
| He didn't really get to Europe until page 29. | ||
| And I've told all my European colleagues and I've done interviews, that's a signal in and of itself. | ||
| Inside the first paragraph on the 29th page, they talked about the issue of civilizational erasure. | ||
| And what one of the fundamental issues we have with NATO right now is we don't know where Germany and France and the Netherlands and Belgium and the United Kingdom are going to be. | ||
| They actually say they don't know who's going to actually govern them in 20 years. | ||
| Now, that is talking not just about their financial problems, but the financial problems that are based upon this unlimited migration they've had. | ||
| Can you comment on that, sir, about this is a civilizational issue? | ||
| Absolutely, I can. | ||
| In fact, in my subcommittee, I chair the Europe Subcommittee on the Foreign Affairs Committee. | ||
| I will have a, in the next few weeks, I will have a hearing on the mass migration because the mass migration is part of the hybrid war that is going on in Europe today. | ||
| China, Russia are importing these masses of people to basically change from a Christian civilization, a self-governing civilization, into something that represents chaos and to change them into tyranny, to put it bluntly. | ||
| So yes, I can comment on it, and it is ongoing. | ||
| And look, a ambassador, and I'm not going to name the ambassador and the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee in a foreign country, a European country, just left my office. | ||
| And I will tell you, they are very concerned about this. | ||
| It's one of the conservative nations because Europe as a whole may not be Europe in 10 to 20 years from now. | ||
| Look at the UK. | ||
| Look at France. | ||
| They are already fundamentally changed. | ||
| In fact, I'd ask: should the UK still be part of the Five Eyes Intelligence Program? | ||
| The Five Eyes Intelligence Program are those closest allies that we share the most sensitive intelligence with. | ||
| I'm not sure that the UK still deserves to get our most sensitive intelligence. | ||
| You know, this is exactly the reason we've launched War Room Texas. | ||
| It's the reason we had this amazing conference that Glenn Beck helped us put on. | ||
| And we had Geert Wilderss. | ||
| We had Geert Wilderss for a reason. | ||
| He was probably the Cassandra warning 20 years ago about what was happening. | ||
| And we had Peter McIlvaney from UK came over, and Peter told us after spending a week in the Dallas Metroplex, Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex area, he said, Hey, guys, I got a heads up for you. | ||
| At the same kind of time frame in the beginning of this invasion in Britain, he says, You guys are much farther gone. | ||
| So connect, was it commerce in McKinney, Texas, to what's happening in Europe? | ||
| And this is the whole reason we started this show. | ||
| We're trying to wake people up early enough that this situation could be handled because all of my colleagues, and I've spent a lot of time, I've done a lot of business, a lot of finance in the United Kingdom and France particularly. | ||
| The closest friends I've got there are saying, Steve, this thing may be too far gone. | ||
| There may not be any alternative than some sort of violent civil war. | ||
| Colonel Self. | ||
| Yeah, I think you're referring to the invasion of Sharia law through the mosques, through the Muslims in North Texas. | ||
| And yes, it is reaching a critical point. | ||
| The number of mosques that are being built. | ||
| Epic City, now renamed the meadows in my district, in my district in North Texas, 400-plus acres meant to be built around a large mosque built to be a Muslim-only community. | ||
| And you know what will happen next. | ||
| There will be no-go zones for police, but this is a serious issue. | ||
| And Steve, I can't tell you how fast this has moved just since you and I talked last. | ||
| We now have a school district in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that had CARE, the NGO of the Muslim Foundation, sponsoring this event. | ||
| It was going to be an Islamic event sponsored by them. | ||
| Look, the state officials are all over it. | ||
| I hope they can stop it. | ||
| I hope they can put a stop to this. | ||
| But then Joanne Fleming, who is one of the true conservatives in East Texas, just recently said that as she interviews candidates, what they are telling her is as they doorknock now for that March 3rd primary, the number one issue they're hearing is Sharia, the invasion of Sharia into Texas. | ||
| So it's moving fast. | ||
| Look, the commissioner's court back to Epic City, the commissioner's court said you have these problems with your application, but the application has already gone to the commissioner's court. | ||
| Now, they pointed out some problems with it, but they will come back. | ||
| And the commissioner's court will have to address this issue from a county, a Collin County standpoint. | ||
| So this is moving very fast. | ||
| The indicators are starting to pour out. | ||
| I hope that people are beginning to be aware of just how dangerous Sharia is in North Texas. | ||
| I mean, think about that. | ||
| Texas, rugged individualism is our hallmark. | ||
| And yet, Sharia is on the march in North Texas. | ||
| As I tell people, it was a couple of months ago we had this meeting and we were there after the redistricting fight in Texas. | ||
| And it was a group of people that had been instrumental in bringing that up to the governor's attention and fighting. | ||
| And you joined that meeting and you said, hey, this is the most important issue we have. | ||
| And my understanding of your background, I said, man, if Keith Self is saying that, this thing is big. | ||
| And then when I drilled down, it blew me away. | ||
| Just give a second for audience, particularly people that are now joining War Room Texas. | ||
| What are your bona fides? | ||
| I mean, it's kind of serendipity or providential that it turns out that in this part of North Texas, north of the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex area, they actually have a congressman with your background. | ||
|
Vouchers and the Islamic Threat
00:15:42
|
||
| Well, thank you for asking, Steve. | ||
| It starts out, I was in the embassy in Cairo, Egypt, back in the 80s, spent two years there. | ||
| That was when Mubarak was in charge. | ||
| And frankly, Mubarak was having his security forces kick down doors and shoot the Muslim Brotherhood inside the room. | ||
| That was when Mubarak in Egypt understood the danger of the Muslim Brotherhood. | ||
| Then I worked with, while I was in Germany, I worked with the IDF in Israel. | ||
| So I've seen both sides of the Palestinian issue there across the Egypt-Israel line. | ||
| I'm actually one of the few people in Congress that has ever been through the Rafah Gate into Gaza and driven through Gaza. | ||
| Now, it was years ago when the Rafah Gate was still open, but I'm one of the few people that's done it. | ||
| Then I was in active duty in Afghanistan. | ||
| I saw the tribalism there. | ||
| I was in the Gulf with Central Command during the Second Gulf War for Iraq. | ||
| So I've got several years and then I've traveled throughout the Middle East. | ||
| So I've seen the impact of Sharia, because when you think about the countries that have been conquered by Sharia in the Middle East, they were not Sharia-based organizations and governments back 100 years ago, but they are today, which is why I have such optimism in Iran, because Iran is different than the other Arab Muslim nations. | ||
| First of all, they're Persian, ethnic Persians. | ||
| Secondly, they have an old and ancient civilization. | ||
| Thirdly, they're Shia. | ||
| Now, we think of Shia as being aggressive, but frankly, the Wahhabis under the Sunni sect are the more aggressive, the more jihadist. | ||
| So I have great, great hope for Iran because Iran could be pulled out of the Sharia Muslim orbit if we do things right, because they've got a civilization that's older than Islam itself. | ||
| Before I let you go, I know you got to bounce. | ||
| You've got congressional duties today. | ||
| People, given your background, given you're seeing, you've been seeing secular Islamic societies taken over by Sharia and turned into kind of radical societies, the pushback that we get is that, hey, guys, this is really a religion and you can't attack a religion in the United States or America. | ||
| What is your response, Colonel Self? | ||
| My response, that is a great question. | ||
| That is the key question, Steve, that you've asked. | ||
| Sharia is a law. | ||
| It's a culture. | ||
| It's a civilization. | ||
| It takes precedence over whatever law you have in your country. | ||
| It takes precedent. | ||
| It is the supreme law. | ||
| It's not a religion. | ||
| It's a law. | ||
| It has a patina of religion. | ||
| So frankly, what I say, even to the moderate Muslims that say, we simply want to pray or whatever. | ||
| And I say, look, you are free to exercise your religion. | ||
| You are not free to impose your religion on other people. | ||
| Because if someone is walking their dog down the sidewalk, you cannot tell them they can't because it offends you. | ||
| So my response to them is, frankly, I'm an infidel under Sharia. | ||
| I'm an infidel. | ||
| I am punishable by death if I do not submit to Sharia. | ||
| They also have a tax that is no longer in vogue, but let's stick with the punishment by death. | ||
| Frankly, these moderate Muslims are considered apostates. | ||
| I'm an infidel. | ||
| They're apostates. | ||
| We are under the same rule under Sharia, which is punishable by death. | ||
| So the moderate Muslims that give this argument to you, When the jihadis take control, they will be given the same choice that I have, submit to Sharia or face death. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What are they going to do? | |
| Most of them will not abandon Islam. | ||
| They will submit to Sharia. | ||
| That's the problem we have going forward. | ||
| The state of Texas has been the most advanced in this. | ||
| I can tell you from my time in the U.S. government trying to, the one big failure I had is try to get the Muslim Brotherhood designated terrorist organization. | ||
| The firestorm that kicked off in the intelligence services State Department, but even the Pentagon at the time, to me was shocking. | ||
| And it made me even more focused on getting care in the Muslim Brotherhood designated. | ||
| Governor Abbott, for all the criticism of Governor Abbott, he did designate even before President Trump did partially and before Governor DeSantis, he designated the Muslim Brotherhood and CARE terrorist organizations. | ||
| He also said to Glenn Beck the other day, which we're going to play probably on Thursday's show, to say, hey, the law they passed for Sharia doesn't have enough teeth in it. | ||
| He's going to get that. | ||
| He's going to get more teeth in that. | ||
| But there's a ballot initiative, Proposition 10 on 3 March, the primary, to ban Sharia law in Texas. | ||
| In your mind, sir, how important is that? | ||
| This is absolutely vital. | ||
| As you call Texas, we are the jewel in the crown of the United States. | ||
| As Texas goes, so goes the nation. | ||
| We lead the conservative states. | ||
| California leads the progressive states. | ||
| We must pass this. | ||
| But Steve, not only must we pass it, I want to pass it with a huge margin because this is simply a proposition. | ||
| It doesn't hold any weight under the law. | ||
| So I want to pass it with a huge margin so that the people speak very plainly to our state government. | ||
| We must ban Sharia. | ||
| We must do it in a strong way. | ||
| We must make sure that there is no possibility for Sharia to take hold because we're behind the power curve right now, Steve. | ||
| So I implore the citizens of Texas, the voters of Texas, go out and vote for this because it's important we pass it with a huge margin. | ||
| Colonel Self, where do people go for social media at your coordinates? | ||
| Because you're putting up great material all the time. | ||
| And where do they go for your site, your congressional site? | ||
| Well, my website is keithself.house.gov, keithself.house.gov. | ||
| You can sign up for my newsletter, weekly newsletter. | ||
| On social media, it's whatever the format is, rep Keith Self. | ||
| Rep Keith Self, whatever the format for that individual platform is. | ||
| I would appreciate people coming and looking. | ||
| This is an important issue. | ||
| We intend to stay on it, Steve. | ||
| Well, we thank you for your leadership. | ||
| I know the people down in Texas and your district appreciate it too. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| Thank you, Colonel. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Appreciate you coming on. | |
| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| Congressman from the McKinney Commerce Area from the great state of Texas and a real leader. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I want to go. | |
| We've got Lynn Davenport now, an activist. | ||
| So Lynn, you've been an activist, and this kind of strikes conservatives odd throughout the country. | ||
| You've been actually an activist and been making the case, I guess, for years about the situation of school choice of that it's not all of what it seems. | ||
| Now, here recently, besides the issues of finance and underwriting, are you subsidizing certain people? | ||
| It's become obvious that the law of unintended consequences, something I don't think was fully explained to people, and people around the nation are seeing this in the school choice movement, that this has been used, | ||
| that Muslims have gamed the system here to actually look at this to get taxpayer money to fund either Islamic centers or schools that I know this problem is in Northern Virginia big time that are based on Islam and Sharia law. | ||
| Can you walk the audience through how this happened in Texas? | ||
| Yes, it's largely been driven by my own party where I've served as a delegate at the state convention. | ||
| And as well, I served as a precinct chair trying to grow the Republican Party. | ||
| I've also run for school board and community college. | ||
| So I'm in this battle at the local level and at the state level. | ||
| And I find when you're knocking on doors, people are not asking for school choice vouchers. | ||
| They have other issues that they're concerned about is crime and property taxes and the border. | ||
| The border is a huge one. | ||
| But the privatization agenda, which is to shift the control and the money into private hands, the education dollars, that's the crux of the school choice pitch is they want to take that money that's going to our traditional public schools and put it into private hands. | ||
| Well, the privatization agenda has actually opened up the door for Islamization of Texas. | ||
| So under the guise of choice and competition and freedom, because that's the campaign slogan that they use for pushing vouchers, that we've actually undermined, we are less free. | ||
| We have less choice if the Islamic schools can take the voucher, which I guarantee you they will be able to. | ||
| They have not been approved yet, but there are 30 Islamic private schools in Texas. | ||
| They will be applying for the voucher. | ||
| And because of previous court rulings, there's a precedent set, not just with Plyler versus Doe, which is why we have to educate undocumented kids in Texas in our public schools, but also there was a ruling for it was Carson versus Macon. | ||
| So they cannot discriminate against religious schools and taking the voucher. | ||
| So this stuff will be tied up in litigation, and we will spend millions of dollars fighting these Islamic charter schools. | ||
| They will be able to take the voucher money, the voucher subsidies, which have been pushed by the Republican Party. | ||
| You cannot get reelected without supporting not only the vouchers, but also the charter schools and the Islamic, the Gulen Islamic charter schools. | ||
| That privatization agenda has been pushed by Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick. | ||
| I loved the question that you asked yesterday of Grassroots America's Joanne Fleming. | ||
| You said, why is Dan Patrick a major driver of this agenda? | ||
| Well, he's featured on that documentary film by Mark Hall, the Killing Ed film. | ||
| It's a fantastic film. | ||
| Dan Patrick makes a cameo and Mark puts him on the spot. | ||
| Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick knows that the Gulen Charter Schools are the largest Islamic charter schools. | ||
| That's the largest charter school chain in Texas. | ||
| And that was run by a Turkish Imam who was exiled in the Poconos and was tied to the attempted overthrow of the Turkish government. | ||
| Our American tax dollars were allegedly used to fund that. | ||
| So this is a national security threat that comes in through charter schools. | ||
| And we're talking about all the other The nonprofits and those tied to the Islamic network and care and Muslim Brotherhood and all those things. | ||
| What we're not talking about is $93 billion in education funding that only about 40% goes in the classroom to the teachers and the students and for curriculum and things like that, the basics. | ||
| There's this whole other chunk of the money, you know, 60% of that money is going to other things. | ||
| Charter schools are real estate deals at the core. | ||
| So these are real estate and business deals. | ||
| You just had Representative Keith Self on, and he unknowingly, or hopefully unknowingly, is supporting the Islamization of Texas through privatization because he supports vouchers. | ||
| He couldn't get reelected if he didn't support vouchers, right? | ||
| I mean, Trump did an auto-pen endorsement for anybody who supported vouchers. | ||
| He stepped in just before the vote. | ||
| We had the votes to kill the voucher subsidies because it's not a conservative principle to give subsidies to private entities with our public tax dollars, our taxpayer dollars. | ||
| It's not conservative. | ||
| It actually grows government. | ||
| It creates a whole new lane of education that we, the taxpayers, will have to absorb. | ||
| So we're going to have to absorb the schooling of Muslim children. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| I want to cut this Gordian knot because it gets quite confusing. | ||
| But for the, because this has a big national, but and help me out here because so many friends of mine, so many colleagues have been school choice people because they think the public education system is just collapsed. | ||
| It's really a propaganda. | ||
| So they want another alternative. | ||
| It was from moms on the East Coast, particularly in the tri-state, the greater New York City, and in Manhattan and in Northern Virginia, that a while ago started warning me to say, hey, look, the school choice thing has been turned into this is what's going to finance these Islamic schools and the Islamic business community and people putting in money from overseas is really in back of this. | ||
| Explain to our audience, because the theory of the case, I thought, is if you had these vouchers, the public school system would decrease in population and therefore the budget would be cut and it would basically be awas. | ||
| But isn't the practice of it that the public school system's money stays exactly the same or grows? | ||
| And then you have this underwriting of these vouchers. | ||
| So how does that work? | ||
| How did it not, how did the theory not work out that the public school system would actually decrease by whatever the offset was for the vouchers? | ||
| Right, because people think that, oh, we're going to drain these woke DEI-driven public schools in favor of these voucher and choice options, right? | ||
| No, that's not actually true. | ||
| Now, you could lose some students who leave the public schools and take the voucher and go elsewhere. | ||
| But really, what it does is we absorb a new crop of students. | ||
| So Texas has 5.5 million kids in the public schools. | ||
| So we have kids in the public schools. | ||
| We have charter schools. | ||
| That's the second lane in a redistribution of wealth that came in the 90s. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Now you've got the voucher lane because it just passed. | ||
| The governor had four special sessions. | ||
| This was his number one issue. | ||
| It's the only thing he cared about. | ||
| He didn't care about all the other top Republican Party priorities, right? | ||
| Like the border and election integrity and property taxes, all those things. | ||
| He only cared about school choice. | ||
| That was the thing. | ||
| And so, okay, so going back to, let's go back to the history of where this choice thing came from, because Milton Friedman wrote that he's, you know, the Jewish economist who's kind of the father of school choice and the free economic system, right? | ||
| So he writes a paper in 1955, the role of government in education, and kind of proposes this voucher idea of taking the privatization where you can take the funds and divert them to your own private school of choice. | ||
|
Dan Patrick's Media Stronghold
00:02:19
|
||
| Then in 62, he wrote a book about capitalism and freedom. | ||
| So this is when I say that it's ironic that it actually undermines our freedom. | ||
| This agenda that came from him, and then you've got Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who's also Jewish and converted to Christianity, but he came from the radio, he was a radio broadcaster. | ||
| I think he bought a radio station. | ||
| So he kind of moved up through media in that way. | ||
| And he got elected because of a curriculum management system that was very controversial, C-scope. | ||
| So Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick has had a stronghold. | ||
| He's had his thumb over the education system for, oh, gosh, a decade now or more. | ||
| And so he is behind the scenes at the state board pushing these charter schools to be approved and then they replicate. | ||
| So once they're approved, they can spread metastasize like a cancer across Texas. | ||
| And so they don't have to get approval once they get that initial approval. | ||
| They can spread like wildfire. | ||
| That's what we have since 2000. | ||
| We've had these Islamic schools flourishing in Texas taking public dollars and shifting those into private hands. | ||
| And they don't have democratically elected boards like our school boards do in Texas. | ||
| They have appointed boards, so corporate boards. | ||
| I don't know if that does that answer your question. | ||
| I think it's important for people to understand. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, perfect. | |
| Yeah, no, no. | ||
| How did this become the governor? | ||
| Dan Patrick's been driving this for years. | ||
| When did it become the governor's? | ||
| Because I remember people telling me, hey, property taxes, redistricting any of the priorities, border security, deportations, anything are not a priority. | ||
| This school voucher. | ||
| Abbott talked to the president. | ||
| This is why you have this whole situation with President Trump endorsing these people, because it was Abbott's recommendation about school choice. | ||

We've got about a minute. | |

Globalism's Grip on Texas
00:15:21
|
||
|
unidentified
|
I'm going to hold you through the break. | |
| How did it become Abbott's end-all and be-all? | ||
| Your guess is as good as mine, but I think it's a global agenda. | ||
| Abbott is a globalist. | ||
| He's advanced globalism in the state of Texas as he's been governor for the last 10 years. | ||
| The Republicans have the majority in the House and the Senate, and Republicans have been in charge. | ||
| Dan Patrick, Abbott, and actually, you can go back to Bush because the charter schools came in when Bush was governor. | ||
| So charter schools flourished under him and Perry and then now Abbott. | ||
| I think it's to advance globalism. | ||
| And I think that the party needs to look in the mirror. | ||
| The Democrats are not running it. | ||
| The Republicans are. | ||
| They're driving this agenda. | ||
| Hang on for one second. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| You're at War Room, Texas. | ||
| Take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to return in a moment. | ||
| But we've got Lynn's going to continue with us back in a moment. | ||
| Texas goes, so goes the nation. | ||
| As the nation goes, so goes the world. | ||
| Are you prepared to fight for this state? | ||
| Are you prepared to fight for your country? | ||
| Okay, welcome back, Warroom, Texas. | ||

|
Lynn Dev. | |
| So Lynn, I'm sure people throughout the country's heads are blowing up and folks in Texas too, because we've kind of reversed everything, the propaganda that they've been acclimated to. | ||
| I'm going to have you back on this. | ||
| I have had so many people, particularly in Northern Virginia and in the New York City metropolitan area, that have told me, they said, look, until you get back to this school choice situation, you are bringing in the tip of the spear of the invasion. | ||
| This is what they're going to build it around, these Islamic schools and Islamic centers. | ||
| And you people have no earthy idea what's going on here as they've seen people throughout the country. | ||
| You've been a great voice of reason here, but I think it's been kind of shock treatment. | ||
| I want to have you back on hopefully Thursday when we have our, we're booked for tomorrow, but on excuse me, Thursday is our next free show, I'm being told. | ||
| So we'll have you back on. | ||
| Until that time, I want people to get up to speed as much as possible. | ||
| So where do they go? | ||
| What's your social media and what's your website to explain this to folks? | ||
| I'm active on Twitter, Lynn S. Davenport. | ||
| And then I have a Telegram channel called Social Impact with Lynn Davenport. | ||
| And I've been sounding the alarms on this and fighting my own party about it for almost a decade, going to the legislature year over year, fighting this school choice agenda because it is a carrot to control and to fold all children under this government system, but also a vehicle to advance globalism through this Islamization of Texas. | ||
| And Sharia law, as we know, is not compatible with our U.S. Constitution and constitutional law. | ||
| And yet it's coming in through the back door. | ||
| And our party's not talking about it. | ||
| They're talking about the nonprofits. | ||
| They're not talking about the education system being the vehicle. | ||
| And if they get the next generation, you know how it, I mean, that's where they get in and change the worldview of the child and the indoctrination happens. | ||
| This whole thing with the Harmony schools, and because I followed, obviously the situation in Turkey, this was a huge issue when I was doing Breitbart News Radio, the daily radio show years ago after Andrew passed away and I took over Breitbart. | ||
| This became a big deal because of Erdogan and NATO and these guys were part of overthrowing him. | ||
| People didn't realize whether they were Muslim Brotherhood or not. | ||
| It was very murky. | ||
| And to know that they have a foothold with these schools and to know that Dan Patrick's been the cheerleader for it and to know that Abbott picked this up. | ||
| I could never figure out. | ||
| I said, with everything going on in Texas that we cover, I said, everything going on, how is this their number one priority? | ||
| How does he make a deal with the president of the United States for these endorsements? | ||
| Because he told the president, we must get school choice. | ||
| We must get school choice. | ||

I said, this makes no sense. | |
| Given everything else going on, it made no sense what was the priority of the topic. | ||
| That is how it works, is that they have to get all children folded into the system. | ||
| The only way to dangle, to do that is to dangle the money carrot. | ||
| So it gets those who are outside of the system, the homeschooled and the private school children. | ||
| They will now be folded into the very system that we have failed to begin with with the public schools. | ||
| So all children will be under the government system. | ||
| It's the only way to do it. | ||
| And we had the votes to kill it. | ||
| And because Trump threatened to primary those who didn't vote for it, we lost this battle in April, April 17th. | ||
| But that was because of Abbott. | ||
| Abbott convinced me. | ||
| Anyway, Lynn, one more time. | ||
| Where do people go for your Telegram channel and where do they go for your social media? | ||
| Yes, Lynn S. Davenport on Twitter and then, or on X, and then Social Impact Podcast on Telegram. | ||

| So look forward to having you back on Thursday. | ||
| We can go into more detail. | ||
| So thank you, ma'am. | ||

I appreciate you. | |
| I want to debate. | ||
| That's all I want. | ||
| I always appreciate Warriors. | ||
| Good. | ||
| We'll try to find, we're trying to line up somebody. | ||
| Bo French. | ||
| Bo, why are you, you've done such a good job in Tarran County and the fight up there. | ||
| You've been warning people about this situation, about the Islamic invasion. | ||
| Just take a minute, though. | ||
| You've actually decided to step into the arena. | ||
| You're running for Texas Railway Commission. | ||
| Now, as a Southerner and somebody that read Caro's biography of, you know, the three or four volume biography of Lyndon Johnson, we're always told that the Texas Railway Commission runs Texas. | ||
| As a young boy, you're taught that. | ||
| What is the Railway Commission? | ||
| Why is it run Texas? | ||
| And why is Bo French running for it? | ||
| That's a great question, Steve. | ||
| Thanks for having me back. | ||
| Listen, the Texas Railroad Commission doesn't have anything to do with trains anymore. | ||
| It's just strictly the regulator for the oil and gas industry and the mining industry in Texas, which is our most important industry. | ||
| You know, Texas produces almost half the oil and gas in the United States. | ||
| And so I think rightly, President Trump, you know, recognizes that our energy prices are a national security issue, which is why he's focused on Venezuela, potentially Iran, with two of the largest oil reserves in the world. | ||
| But Texas, we have to solidify our industry here and make sure it is as strong as can be, as competitive as can be. | ||
| And I'm running because my family's been in the oil business for 80 years. | ||
| I've been in the oil business most of my career. | ||
| It's a hugely important industry to me personally and to my family. | ||
| And so I want to make sure that we have the best industry we can. | ||
| And my opponent, the guy that I'm running against, has drastically increased regulations. | ||
| He's increased the focus on DEI at a time when most of the country has recognized that DEI is racist, like affirmative action, and is working to reduce that. | ||
| And then, you know, I've been the leader really in Texas. | ||
| I was the first elected official, I think, to really come out strongly against Islam and what it's doing here in Texas with over 330 mosques now. | ||
| Just here in DFW, we have over 70 mosques. | ||
| So it is a threat. | ||
| And I saw you had lots of people on the show and they're talking about the threat. | ||
| And I'm glad because two years ago, when I was first talking about it, I was getting attacked from all sides. | ||
| Not only were the Democrats coming against me, not only did CARE try to cancel me, not only did some of the leaders right here in Texas, some of the Republicans we have here in Texas, try to call me racist for pointing this out. | ||
| But it really is a threat. | ||
| And it speaks to a bigger problem that it's not just Islam, which I think is a huge problem, but it is this degradation of our culture that we've watched over the last several generations. | ||
| And it's not just Islam. | ||
| It's the H-1B issue. | ||
| It's the fact that young people getting out of school can't get jobs. | ||
| They can't even get into colleges because of DEI. | ||
| So all of this just really wraps up together and it's a problem. | ||
| And I think it's time we start confronting these issues. | ||
| I want people to understand that you were at Tarrant County and you did an amazing job of turning that around because we did, I think, lose it. | ||
| Look, we think the 2020 election was stolen, but we did lose it. | ||
| Why is Tarrant County, Tarrant County? | ||
| I tell people, Tarrant County and Harris County and Texas are more important than most states in the Union. | ||
| Why is Tarrant County so important for the nation? | ||
| Because what happens in Tarrant County resonates through the entire state of Texas, sir. | ||
| Yeah, Tarrant County is really a bellwether for Texas. | ||
| Tarrant County is 2.5 million people and has historically been a very red county. | ||
| But we started seeing this urban, you know, urban growth in Tarrant County over the last decade or so. | ||
| And really, you know, the economic growth has been phenomenal. | ||
| But with that comes big city, blue city problems. | ||
| And we've seen all of that with crime. | ||
| And for the most part, our leaders have done a pretty good job. | ||
| But the average sort of city council person in Tarrant County is really focused on economic growth, which is kind of the historical Republican Party platform, right? | ||
| Let's, you know, low taxes, low regulation, things like that. | ||
| But we don't want to talk about social issues or how we preserve our culture because those things are controversial. | ||
| And that creates problems. | ||
| Well, one of the problems is as the county has continued to grow, we've imported a lot of just blue, you know, blue city, blue state type policies. | ||
| And we've just witnessed Our voting system got compromised, I believe, starting in 2018 with hiring a foreign national named Heider Garcia, who came in, had worked with the big voting machine systems in foreign countries. | ||
| They brought him in, and I think he compromised our elections here. | ||
| He went over to Dallas County after Tarrant County to do the same there. | ||
| So it's a problem, and we have to confront it, or we're going to go the way of Dallas County, which is now like a 60-40 Democrat county. | ||
| So Tarrant County was trending blue. | ||
| We were able to reverse that during the time that I was chairman, thank goodness. | ||
| And it's, I believe, on the right track now. | ||
| We've got a great chairman now who took my place. | ||
| And I think that we had this awakening over the last few years. | ||
| And again, Tarrant County is really the, I call it the bellwether of Texas, because as you know, if you lose Tarrant County, you're probably not going to win Texas. | ||
| And if the Republicans don't win Texas, there is no pathway for a Republican to win the presidency. | ||
| So it really speaks to a bigger issue. | ||
| Give me a minute because I know you got to bounce. | ||
| There are 300 and I think 100 or 330 mosques now in Texas, two a month are being built. | ||
| I think just in North Texas alone, I believe North Texas, broadly defined, has over 200. | ||
| What got you on to this as an issue and a problem a couple of years ago? | ||
| Because you were much farther advanced on this than any other politician in the state or any leader in the state, sir. | ||
| Well, it goes back to, remember the Holy Land Foundation. | ||
| That was a trial here in North Texas that exposed the funding mechanism that money was being funneled back to terrorist organizations. | ||
| And I think that, look, I mean, Texas is a huge state, huge economy, eighth-largest economy in the world. | ||
| People can come here and set up businesses. | ||
| Getting people across the border illegally has been fairly easy in years past. | ||
| Thank God for Donald Trump. | ||
| He's slowed that way down. | ||
| But, you know, we have huge communities of people here who haven't really assimilated, who come in. | ||
| And I think the Minnesota thing has shown that there is a way for people to come in and set up these businesses that then funnel money back to politicians, funnel money back overseas. | ||
| The same thing that's happening in Minnesota is certainly happening here in Texas. | ||
| And my friends that work in the intelligence community who I work with have exposed a lot, have seen a lot of this. | ||
| It's not really all public information yet because I think the public would be very frightened if they knew everything that was really going on. | ||
| But it is a serious problem. | ||
| There are imams here in these mosques, which are really just forward operating bases for the jihad, for the global expansion of Islam. | ||
| And they're targeting here because it is an easy place to set up shops. | ||
| It's an easy place to do business. | ||
| It's an easy place to get federal funds. | ||
| It's an easy place to launder money. | ||
| Not that we don't have great law enforcement and people like Ken Paxton who are on this issue also. | ||
| It's just when there's so much of it at scale, it's just hard to get your hands around. | ||
| So we really need an all-government approach to confronting this issue. | ||
| Bo, we got to bounce social media and where do they go for your campaign site for Texas Railroad Commissioner, sir? | ||
| Yeah, thank you. | ||
| Website's easy. | ||
| It's just BoFrench.com. | ||
| Would appreciate your support, but I'm really active on X. That's the main place where I spend a lot of time, and that's Bo French TX. | ||
| I've put Bo's campaign ad up on my getter. | ||

It's amazing. | |
| Great ad. | ||
| Sir, thank you so much, and thank you for being a leader in this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
People appreciate it. | |
| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| Thanks for having me. | ||
| Good to see you. | ||
| Let's go to Oklahoma, Senator Dusty Deavers, another leader. | ||
| Sir, can you get us updated with the folks in Broken Arrow led the way here about how you actually handle this and do it in a civil way, but relentless, not don't back down. | ||
| Can you give us an update? | ||
| What's going on in Oklahoma, sir? | ||
| Yeah, the last word is that the Islamic Center and the folks who are over it are going to file a lawsuit against them to try to overrule the city council's decision. | ||
| We'll see where that goes. | ||
| But they have awakened a sleeping giant, and we can all be thankful for that here in Oklahoma, especially up in the northeast of Oklahoma. | ||
| I think that the citizens and especially the grassroots are awake. | ||
| The just red-blooded Americans, and we have a whole lot of military who have retired in Oklahoma, and we love those guys, and they understand the fight that we're up against because they fought it on their own soil on the foreign soil. | ||
| Look, I think that's fantastic. | ||
| And that's one of the reasons we've got this show. | ||
| And we were so glad that you guys, the delegation came down from Oklahoma. | ||
| A question I have, though, looking in Minneapolis, is this attack by Don Lemon and these radicals into that Christian church. | ||
| When are the, and I know you're a pastor, and what you said the other day really excited people. | ||
| When are the pastors? | ||
| Because I think leadership here has to come from the church in some regard. | ||
| When are the pastors? | ||
| And hey, I'm a Roman Catholic. | ||
| It ain't going to come from the official Roman Catholic Church. | ||
| They're absolutely pathetic in this, maybe traditional Catholics and the Latin Mass Catholics, but the evangelical pastors. | ||
| You see what's happening, this red-green alliance. | ||
| What happened in Minneapolis is outrageous and has to be prosecuted immediately. | ||
|
Rape Bans and Religious Duty
00:03:30
|
||
| But when are the pastors, particularly in Oklahoma, going to wake up and take leadership here? | ||
| Steve, that's a great question. | ||
| We've been trying to wake them up on various issues over the years. | ||
| And it is, if this doesn't do it, I don't know what will. | ||
| Maybe it will take the rape bans that have swept across Sweden and Europe and Germany and England to come in and start raping their children because that's what Islam has done in European cultures and societies. | ||
| And they are overthrowing them systematically. | ||
| Maybe that's what it will take. | ||
| But what we have to understand, what our pastors have to understand, is that they have a duty before God to love their neighbor as theirself. | ||
| And that love of neighbor is rightly ordered love. | ||
| Just think about a pastor who's a father. | ||
| Would he let these rape parties come into his house and take over his own home and rape his own children and just stand by and watch? | ||
| I would definitely hope not. | ||
| Would he let them do that in his own city? | ||
| Would he let them do that in his church and his state? | ||
| I don't know what will wake them up, but a lot of these pastors, especially the ones who have theological training, know that Islam is a civilizational military threat. | ||
| And they know some of the history. | ||
| They know because they've also gone on mission trips into the Middle East and otherwise, and they've seen it. | ||
| So I don't know, Steve, we can pray the people, the citizens who are going to those churches need to be having conversations with their pastors and calling them to love our American neighbors as ourselves, love the neighbors in your city and your state, and to uphold the sixth commandment. | ||
| It says you shall not murder. | ||
| And what that also means is you must do everything within your power lawfully to protect your own life and the life of your neighbor. | ||
| And if you don't, you have violated the sixth commandment. | ||
| Preach the gospel. | ||
| That's absolutely the first most important thing. | ||
| And then apply the rest of the scriptures to all matters in life and the civil sphere as well. | ||
| We got a couple of minutes here, but I got to ask you, the Red-Green Alliance, the Marxist-Jihadist Alliance has taken over New York City with Mamdani. | ||
| But you saw in Minneapolis, I mean, they understand that the church is the bulwark of civil society and ordered society in our nation. | ||
| They went and attacked a Christian church and mothers and small children there during service for the reason they wanted to intimidate. | ||
| They wanted to say, they would send in a message everywhere, you're not safe in your church. | ||
| We're going to come and attack you there. | ||
| Is that rattled? | ||
| Is that sunk into the pastors in Oklahoma that the war that's against the Christianity and the Christian church, sir? | ||
| I sure hope it is starting to. | ||
| The Center for Baptist Leadership, which I'm on the board for, and William Wolf is the executive director, he caught that video and posted it first. | ||
| And now we're over six and a half million views on X. | ||
|
Oklahoma's MAGA Threat
00:02:59
|
||
| And that's very important. | ||
| We're very thankful that Elon Musk bought X and is now a free speech platform so that it can infiltrate even into these pastors and pulpits. | ||
| So they understand the threat that we really do see. | ||
| And you're right, that red-green alliance, our people really need to understand the left and Islam are, they're just not obviously natural allies. | ||
| So you look at Queers for Palestine, which is a real movement. | ||
| It's absolutely and obviously absurd. | ||
| But this alliance makes no sense unless because actual Palestine would toss queers for Palestine off of a roof. | ||
| But it makes perfect sense when you realize that these two groups have a short-term alliance against shared enemies. | ||
| Islam and the left both desire to destroy Western civilization. | ||
| Senator, where do people go to on social media to find your also your website? | ||
| Because I got to tell you, the folks in Broken Era, and it's going to come down on them. | ||
| They're going to try to break those folks. | ||
| You watch, and we're going to be there to have their back the entire way. | ||
| Where do folks go to find out more what's going on in Oklahoma and your leadership in trying to get the churches to wake up to this threat? | ||
| You can go to X, and my handle is at dustydeavers.com. | ||
| I'm on Facebook as well. | ||
| You can find me there. | ||
| I also have a website, dvers2023.com. | ||
| And I would love if you could donate to the campaign that I've got coming up in June. | ||
| I'm taking on the establishment. | ||
| They have made me public enemy number one. | ||
| I have scored at the highest level of all the conservative surveys and indexes in Oklahoma. | ||
| I'd love for you to reach out there. | ||
| That does not surprise me. | ||
| Senator, thank you for coming to the conference. | ||
| You gave a very impassioned talk and motivated a lot of people. | ||
| I want to thank the delegation that came down from Oklahoma from the Oklahoma House. | ||
| Just really impressive. | ||
| And I definitely want to thank the folks in Broken Era, Oklahoma, that are leading the nation here and showed what courage takes. | ||
| So, sir, thank you so much. | ||
| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| Leave it to Oklahoma. | ||
| Oklahoma, I think I would argue is the most MAGA of all states, the Reddit states. | ||
