Stephen K. Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. You're just not got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
Natalie Winters
And where do people like that go.
Stephen K. Bannon
To share the big lie? MAGA Media I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War room here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Okay, welcome. Tuesday the 19th of November, the year of our Lord 2024. The importance of the show. Remember, you were the leaders of the mass mobilization efforts underneath what Elon and others and Miriam Adelson and other people. Charlie Kirk, you're the volunteers. You're, you know, precinct strategy. You're a cadre. And every revolution needs a vanguard in a cadre, and that's what you are. So we are celebrating, right? We are, you know, making sure everybody enjoys this amazing victory. The greatest come from behind in history, but the reality is it's a process. And you're fighting over control of the most powerful nation in the history of the earth. More powerful than the Roman Empire, more powerful than the British Empire, more powerful than the Spanish empire, more powerful than the Chinese Empire. At the top of their games. And at no time in any of those fights for control of the empires, very rarely did the common man and woman have a say. So you have a massive say. So you have driven this revolution with in back of our leader, Donald John Trump, who is a blunt force instrument who is inflicting blunt force trauma onto the system right now, but is a massive resistance. They're just not going to sit there and go, what a great idea. You know, Charlie Kirk's guys and Steve Bannon's war room and, you know, MTG's people down in Georgia and all these, you know, all the deplorables and all the garbage and all these Nazis and all these fascists and all these brown shirts, they all showed up to vote and they outworked us and, you know, we weren't prepared for it. They're sitting there on MSNBC going, oh, college campuses are turning out. Wait, did you see it? You see the compilations? They're sitting there all night. We warned about the college campuses Right. They're saying the college campuses are going to. They're long lines in the inner city of Philadelphia, talking, talking, talking, talking, talking until about 10:30 at night. Boom. North Carolina. Then it started. They have no intention of turning this thing over to tossing the keys to you. They don't. You got to fight for it. You have to seize the institutions. You have to seize the institutions. Obviously, with the rule of law, we just won. They. It was not. It was. They made democracy the number one. That was her thing. Democracy, democracy, democracy, democracy. More so than even abortion. Democracy, democracy. Okay, hey, if that's what you want, let's roll. He took a bullet to the head and then won in a landslide. Full stop. Suck on that. Democracy that. How's that suppository working out for you? So we won. But it doesn't mean when they control the institution, when they control Wall street, when they control Silicon Valley, when they control Hollywood, and when they control the imperial capital in every one of these institutions, embedded like lice, that they're just going to sit there and go, this is terrific. He's got a couple thousand people come wandering in here. No, we're going to chop block this in every way at the state level, at the local level, at the city level, resistance. And then all the way up through it. And like MTG said, they got plenty of billionaires. Money's not their problem. Money is not their problem. Natalie Winters, you were all over this and by the new. I haven't had a chance because we're so busy get so much stuff going on. It's crazy. Good, crazy. Right now in the war room, we are dealing. And really, in the MAGA movement, these are high class problems, right? This ain't January 2021. Right now we have high class problems. There are problems and we're going to win. But man, you're talking about control of the Senate and the House and budgets and war and everything that you're dealing. You, the audience, you're right in the fricking room, right where you've always fought to be, and you got a seat at the table. Not too shabby for a bunch of grand dunes, right? Not too shabby. But hey, in New York magazine, having a child really read it, were with us and followed us from the time I got prison to the broadcast on the roof of the Willard Hotel. And I think the article, I'm getting a lot of feedback. People love it. And Natalie Winters, you are described in there as the sunny blonde that does epic rants.
Natalie Winters
I'll take it.
Stephen K. Bannon
We, we Call you my wing. You'll take it. We'll call you my wingman. So I'm going to turn it over to our sunny blonde in West Palm Beach, Florida. Natalie, as you always do, because you're the best investigative reporter in town. This resistance goes very deep. It's very sophisticated, it's very well financed. And hey, they are down. And I admire them. They're down for a fight. You want to fight? We're all ready to go. Natalie Winters, Take it away, ma'am.
Natalie Winters
Well, the New Yorker may say that I'm a sunny blonde, but let's be clear, I'm dark MAGA to my core. But it's important to, I think, drill down on this resistance. It's sort of a nebulous term, but make no mistake, their plans for action are very concrete. And it really should be viewed, I would argue, as just a continuation of the lawfare legacy that we've seen over these past four years. Really a testament to the evolution of not just the asymmetric, but really advanced forms of information and psychological and legal warfare that the Democrats have really been waging on the American people. Right. The enemy has evolved. And I think you see their sort of battle plans quite clearly in Rachel Maddow's show last night.
Unknown Speaker
Right.
Natalie Winters
She bifurcated her into two distinct segments, really creating what I think is sort of the three part stool of the resistance. The first leg being what you've been hammering and what we've been saying for a while now being the judges. The second is basically the idea of these NGO type activist groups, right. Those are the ACLU's. And then the third being the States Rights, the Democrat Governors Alliance. And there's been a lot of reporting over the last few days. So I want to sort of start with the NGO activist wing of the Democratic Party. There was a brilliant piece in the New York Times running through sort of the new Resistance 2.0, their strategies. And you were just talking about the financing of so much of this. Well, one of the groups that has emerged as sort of the financial railhead, the nexus point for all this is something called Democracy alliance, which people are very familiar with. It's funded by basically all the prominent left wing billionaire types, of course, George Soros, Tom Steyer. But they currently are having their DC based meeting to sort of plot essentially the financing of this next resistance movement. And I was able to get some of the information about what their panels are, what they're discussing, and I'll read it for the audience because I think it's important to understand the contours of what we're up against. Some of the panels include Making Meaning and Meeting the Moment, Resistance and Reorienting. It's time to resist the fight against Project 2025. And per the New York Times, they had, quote, more focused discussions about abortion rights, immigration, racial justice, taxes, countering disinformation and other issues according to a draft agenda. Buried lead. One of the presenters at this conference, none other than Alex Soros, but to really, I think, speak to how calculated and advanced this warfare operation is going to be. They're also talking about creating new, basically liberal dark money organizations. In this case the one that the New York Times highlighted. They were pitching donors where the opening bid, the minimum investment, was a million dollars. They were looking for an annual budget of around 10 to 15 million for just this one group to what they say, target the hidden sources of disinformation and expose them for what they are shopping around dossiers on Elon Musk and the Murdoch family. And of course, Rick Wilson of Lincoln Project fame is back being a senior advisor there, kind of shopping around all these opposition research firms. Now, the corollary to that, you have a group called Democracy Forward, which is sort of the legal side of this NGO apparatus they've already built, amassed a multimillion dollar war chest. They have over eight lawyers basically waiting just to hit print on a bunch of lawsuits that they're gonna file against the Trump administration come day one. I think another buried lead in this New York Times piece is that they admit that they were always sort of cagey about Kamala Harris winning and that the preparations and planning began all the way back in 2023. Also, I think something that's worth noting, the DNC is already working on sort of what they call a war room operation to pull up dirt and smear, of course, any Trump nominees, Trump appointees, and in of RFK Jr. A group called Protect Our Care, basically just big pharma puppets have set up what they call a stop RFK war room to really oppose his nomination. So I think it's just important to sort of conceptualize and internalize, right, the rape allegations, the sexual assault allegations against Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth. And I'm sure whoever is going to step up, right, they're going to get smeared as the next worst thing in America. These aren't actual, credible allegations. Right. It's Kavanaugh 2.0. It's just more examples of lawfare. And I think the most dangerous form of lawfare that we're seeing Right now, where when you use the term enemy within which I hope becomes the enemy exposed. I'm of course looking at the aclu. They're actively suing, preemptively suing right now, the Trump administration, to try to get ice, particularly their air and airplane operations, to try to get the idea of how they're going to be able to carry out these mass deportations. And I think the legal activism and the immigrants rights, you know, cry me a river aside, they're actively suing to try to what, give convicted criminals here in the United States advanced notice about how to avoid deportation? I mean, if you wanna talk about treason and being a traitor to your country, I think the ACLU should receive a medal for that with the actions that they're doing this year. And just the last point on all this, I was also able to get my hands on this group that I think this audience needs to become familiar with. It's called Indivisible. And it was really the railhead of the 2016 iteration of Resistance. But their playbook, and I'll just read one quote, we will play hardball wherever we've got Democrats in local, city or state office pushing them to block, delay and challenge Maga's attacks. It's a long winded 2030 page document about all the ways down to what they want their constituents and their supporters calling their congressmen and senators to push for. So this is very well organized and well calculated.
Stephen K. Bannon
And it's a brilliant job to break that apart. Do we have the clips? Maybe I played that in. Coming back. Okay, hang on a second, Natalie. And there's three phases. The New York Times to smarts. On their site, the Maggie Haberman. The Maggie Haberman Jonathan Swan piece talks about flooding the Zone now with Trump with policies and personnel. Right. And the blunt force instrument, as you can see, Natalie, is shattering, is shattering all conventions here in D.C. and they're not handling it well. But they are reforming right now and regrouping. They're going to be quite powerful. This resistance will be orders of magnitude more powerful than we saw in 16 and 17, although. And this is why you need Matt Gaetz and this is why you need Matt Gaetz's team at Dojo. And this is why you need Hexbeth at Defense and Kristi Noem at DHS and Tulsi Gabbard at DNI and Radcliffe at CIA. They will not have access to the, to the. They should not have access to the levers of state power. That's what didn't happen in the first Trump term, they had, they had their hands on the levers of state power. This is why I say the watchword here in this, what they call the lame duck or the interregnum before we take over on the 20th of January is seize the institutions. Seize the institutions. Seize the institutions. And you see the way the resistance is coming up, any weakness in that, they're going to use that as operating leverage to stop the Trump revolution. Kate Johnny Khan is going to take us out. Birchgold.com it's going to be a little turbulence, folks. You know, that's coming. It's here now, but it's going to really come as President Trump gets into his first and second year because they're going to try to hit him with everything. Birchgold.com Bannon the end of the dollar empire. But more importantly, go talk to Philip, Patrick and team. This is why we have these sponsors, give you access to senior people. Talk to them about your IRAs, talk to them about your 401ks, talk about your financial situation and let them explain to you why gold has been a hedge for, I don't know, 5000 years of man's recorded history. So check that day plus home title lock hometitleoc. Please don't let anybody take your title and monetize it for themselves. Very simple. Natalie Dominguez and the team over there, education at home title lock Slash Bannon. Right, you go there right now, check it out, get all the information, make informed decisions. That's what this show is about. Give you access to information, learn you up and then your free men and free women. Make your own decisions. Johnny Khan takes this out. American Heart, Natalie Winters, the Sunny blonde. According to New York magazine anchors down in Palm Beach. West Palm Beach, Florida. Back in a moment. Big victory on the 5th of November. Now the work can finally start on the big issues facing the country. One of the biggest is the national debt and the deficits that drive it. Hey, you think the country's broke? The country is broke. We're just printing money to keep this house of cards going. The strategy remains the same for you. You got to diversify, diversify your savings. That's why buy gold from Birchgold. So many things are out of your control, out of the president's control. It's important to have a safe haven for your savings.

Steve Bannon, his old political advisor, actually says that in the first months of the Trump administration, the idea is to pierce tradition, obliterate it, put a hand grenade over it. And so you see all of these appointees that Trump made that he's standing by. What does he want? He wants a revolution where he controls completely. And to achieve that, he has to destroy the system because Donald Trump has proven time and time again that the Republican parties are loyal to him or the Republican Party's loyal to him. I think Hex has sails through. I know that sounds crazy, but there are just enough Republican senators that will blindly wrap themselves in the fact that Hex has 20 years in the National Guard and will overlook any other true questions of fitness or administration. And I think what is common among all of the nominees, which is so unsettling, is they're each kind of activist nominees, right? In past administrations, as you know. Well, Jason, the nominees are typically administrators, maybe with executive experience, the ability to run a large agency. They're not really activists, cabinet nominees. In each one of these cases, you're talking about nominees with their own agenda, their own activism. And most of that activism is typically to turn on the department that they're due to lead and try to dismantle it and break it down. Look, Heg says it should also be known another reason that he'll likely sail through 20 years in Republican politics. A former Republican Senate candidate paid for by the Koch brothers, tried to privatize the va. He knows how to speak Republican Senate language. Okay. Welcome back, Natalie. New York Times. The quote is from me is that President Trump is a blunt force instrument and he's giving blunt force trauma to this system. They're reeling back now. They're regrouping and forming the beginning of a resistance. But we're on offense. And this is what he's driving, not just the narrative, he's driving action. He's using his agenc as president or as president elect in this regard to form a team down in Mar a Lago to put policies together. But Also to begin to fight and to hit this system, this cartel, where they can't even, you know, they can't comprehend it because they understand HGS is there to radically restructure the defense part, which we have to do. Gates is there to purge DOJ, and hopefully if cash gets FBI, I'll talk about more in a second. FBI, you got Noam and Homan at DHS, Tulsi Gabbard, what a magnificent picture is for the 18 intelligence agencies. You got Radcliffe at FBI and then you got Bobby Kennedy. Here's a great thing about Hegsith and Gates being so controversial right now. Bobby Kennedy, nobody's even talking about him. He's probably the most radical of all of them to take on the biopharma industrial complex. Your observations and how this is driving the resistance. Because they're sitting there with Reid Hoffman and guys saying, hey, if you don't form something now, we don't start chop blocking. Number one, we get as many judges as possible in the Senate. Number two, which Rachel Maddow is calling for, she's calling for the Senate now, why they have power to do many confirmation hearings, to call people before them, why they're in charge before January 3rd. And you just heard Natalie's report of these NGOs, which by the way, many of which will be under criminal investigation. Sonny Blond, Ms. Winters down in west, down in West Palm beach today, as you know, you've covered it better than anybody. They understand what's coming for them and that's why they are at their ramparts. And I admire that. We like a good fight. This is how democracy really works. I kind of dig it if they were just in the fetal position or they're doing and kowtowing like Morning Joe. I mean, Mika and Joe Scarborough showed all of their character of what they went down and kowtowed to President Trump. Right? You would never see us do that. You never see the Bonginos of the world and the Charlie Kirk's of the world, the Riddlemere, Jack Posovic, the fighters. Natalie winner. Natalie, would you go kowtow to Biden and Jill to get access to the White House so you could get scoops? Would you do that? But you see the resistance, the real fighters. And remember our enemy here, they are real fighters and they're smart. That's our Rachel Maddow bifurcated her show last night. Part was warrant on the judges and let's call these guys again and have confirmation. And the whole second part of the show, Natalie was laying out the framework in the Details. Because they've got a playbook of the resistance, ma'am.
Natalie Winters
Well, I'll visit the Bidens in prison. How about that? Is that nice enough? Look, the Democrats have admitted the quiet part out loud, right? What was it just last week? They said they want a shadow government and they nominated Adam Schiff for the Foil AG to Matt Gaetz. But what this really is, and Steve, I even think we called this on the show two weeks ago, it's the concept of a shadow impeachment, right? Since Jamie Raskin doesn't have the levers of traditional House power, they're essentially trying to impeach and nullify and neuter any authority that President Trump has. Because the tool of impeachment back in the early years of the Trump administration, if you look at it through the lens of the color revolution playbook, it was not actually about impeachment, right? It's a means to an end. And that impeachment process is just to generate and throw sand in the gears of the Trump administration or frankly, any administration that would try to get in the way of business as usual or the status quo. And I think I would just sort of, frankly, at face value, reject the premise, right, of the cold open. You just played the idea that loyalty and tradition and status quo politics have gotten us anywhere that's worth preserving just falls flat at face value, right? A foreign policy that's left what hundreds of thousands of Americans dead, defending the borders of other countries, trade policies that have hollowed out the middle class, immigration policy that seen Springfield turn into essentially a penal colony for the worst of the worst from the most, most backwards country that exists. I mean, what these people are trying to do on the personnel and subversion front, I mean, let's call it what it is. It's a continuation of the legacy of what Thomas Matthew Crooks and Ryan Ruth attempted to do on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania, and down here in West Palm beach, respectively. Right? They wanted to get in the way and block the American people's ability to a choose or vote for President Trump, just like they were doing out in Colorado on the ballot, but to deprive him of his ability to rul. And yes, I'm gonna use the word mandate because he has it despite the mainstream media's efforts, best efforts to try to reduce it into what, you know, something much less than what his overwhelming and stunning victory was. But they're on par with the same actions, using these alternative warfare strategies to try to essentially make President Trump render him unable to actually implement his agenda. And you're seeing, right, the Democratic sort of shock troops assemble. I think if you wanna carry out the Revolutionary War metaphor, right, The British, the loyalists, the sort of globalist ruling classes that's gonna be carried out via the judges and the law fair. But the Hessians, right, the sort of boots on the ground mercenary types, and I don't just use that example because these people are foreign. They have no allegiance to America. I'd love to audit their financials and see who they're funded by. But they are gonna engage in guerrilla warfare like we've never seen. Right? But at the end of the day, much like the Hessians, the issue is that they don't have any allegiance to this country because they're not actually American. They wanna radically transform this nation. Right. They'll say the quiet part, they'll admit that, but they're going to be funded to a T like we've never seen before. Like I said, they're already plotting that right now. They have the lawsuits, the cases ready to go. They just have to hit print. And it's really going to be, I think, one of the other buried leads and Norm Eisen's report about how they're gonna counter and try to cut off the supply lines to go into the Trump administration. They're banking on bipartisan support for a lot of this. Right. And that establishment wing of the Republican Party, that's part of the resistance. Right. We're facing resistance on both sides, which is a great spot to be in. But when you read if Denver wants to Throw the pictures up, I mean, they have charts about how to artfully craft the best phone calls to your congressmen and senators to be the most convincing that you can. Frankly, I encourage our audience to read their report. We can culturally appropriate some of their tips, but this is a full scale warfare operation that I think eventually you will see turn kinetic. But in the meantime, they're just sort of dabbling in the realms of legal warfare, information warfare, psychological warfare and media warfare. But until we get to that point, like Elizabeth Warren says in that interview with Rachel Maddow, she corrects Rachel Maddow and says the fight doesn't start on January 20th. The fight is right now. I only have 12 minutes to do your show because we're busy ramming through judges and what Senate Republicans are busy doing God knows what. They're not even putting up a fight. So they need to fight. We need to call our senators. I'd also, real quick, just encourage people to call the House Two, There's a new bill coming to the floor on the funding of a lot of these NGOs, which we can get into after the break if you would like.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on. We're going to get into that. And I may have a special guest drop by Garrett Ziegler for a moment if we can do it. The nomination. I want to repeat what she just said. I don't think we had a chance. That was not in the club what Warren was in. She says, I'm in my hideaway, which is actually in the Capitol. Not the way the system set up is that you have the Capitol, which only have very few offices. Then you have the buildings for the House side and the Senate side where their offices are. Some of the senior people have hideaways are actually in the Capitol and they use that when they got to be there for votes. She started the Rachel Maddow show by saying I'm in my hideaway, which is pretty stark and not great lighting because she said I'm here 24 7. Because we have to get these judges through. Correct. Natalie, that was very powerful. She says I've only got 12 minutes, right? I got 12 minutes. Let's get it done because I got to get back down there. They're fully engaged in the fight. Okay, we're taking a short break and Natalie, we're going to get to more of this. Remember the New York Times headline this morning in this new story is about Gates nomination and maybe, you know, some people getting wobbly. Nobody's wobbly on Gates. President Trump took a bullet to the head and then won in a landslide. Four months later, he gets to pick the people in the government that he wants. That's his prerogative. You can give us all the advice and then give us your consent. We kind of demand it. And MTG is absolutely correct. Not looking for a lot of conversation here. It's time now and I think they ought to start on January 3rd or 4th. Let's have all the nomination hearings simultaneous. Let's flood the zone. You're flooding the zone right now. Let's flood it then and flood it on the 20th of January. I see three big nodes here of action, action, action. Short commercial break. Back in a moment. It's obvious the unthinkable continues. Most Americans know something is very, very wrong. The people in charge keep telling you that everything's fine and to stop noticing, but you know better. That's why self reliant folks are investing in emergency food storage. And you should too.

Unknown Speaker
Here's your host, Stephen K. Battle.
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, welcome back. Right now, FBI FBI director looks like Cash Patel from our, you know, we kind of jumped the gun a tad yesterday and you can tell we think the world of cash and understand that Cash would just do an amazing job as FBI director. It seems like, and this is almost unbelievable that now the semaphore is. Semaphore is reporting that Mike Rogers is actually maybe in the hunt here, which absolutely sounds incredible, but we're going to deal with that. Look, Mike Rogers is a good guy, former FBI guy, ran for Senate, barely lost, but it is, he is not the right guy for this job. You can't send a former guy and he says, oh, I need to reform the FBI. No, we don't need reform of the FBI. You need to hit the FBI with a blowtorch, okay? An absolute blowtorch. Cash Patel is that blowtorch. Cash Patel is equivalent Matt Gaetz at Justice. You need Cash Patel. We can't go half measures. And Rogers is just another swamp guy from the swamp. They cleaned him up a little bit to run. And Katie Britt, no offense, you know, you came begging for MAGA support, you came begging for President Trump's nomination to put a statement out that you support Roger because you never heard of Cash Patel. Ma'am, you ought to fire your staff. If you have not heard of Cash Patel in the last couple of years and what he did in President Trump's administration, no offense, you don't deserve to be representing Alabama in the United States Senate. That's just a clown show. Speaking of a clown show. Okay, I get him. He's on. Okay. He's right there digging out a book. Here we are, right here. We got him in the studio. Garrett Zigler, good morning.
Garrett Ziegler
Thanks for having me.
Stephen K. Bannon
Thanks for being in town. I've got first off Let me go back to. We don't have you hooked up, Natalie. New York magazine, they didn't have you as executive editor at War Room and as your role as the co host here. And really stepped in for me as a host during much of the time that I was at Spa Danbury. Ma'am. What is the problem? Are these progressive organizations, they look at everybody's Handmaid's Tale. Ma'am.
Natalie Winters
Well, maybe they look at everyone like Olivia Nuzzie. I don't know. Right. I think the author who wrote that piece actually used to write with her. I think for reasons unknown, she was not assigned to cover this piece. I digress on that. Yeah. They said the only reason that I was there to provide election night coverage was to, quote, troll the libs, which I think is a little reductive about a lot of my reporting. But hey, when we're. Like I said, Steve, when you were in prison, retribution will be when you're sitting there providing live coverage on what the trials of Merrick Garland, Hillary Clinton, Victoria Nuland, and everyone else who's just so wonderful and so America First. Of course, maybe that's where I'm trolling the libs, but they can see how funny everything that I say is when that materializes. And I look forward to the follow up New Yorker piece on not just election night coverage, but on the coverage of the trials.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on for one second, Natalie. I want to go. You're here in town.
Garrett Ziegler
Yes.
Stephen K. Bannon
So real quick, because we're cramped for time. Hunter Biden and the pardons of Hunter Biden. They should come from Joe Biden, they shouldn't come from Donald Trump. But talk to me about that. There's some confusion. People are coming to me about. There's articles about Biden, Trump. No, Trump should not pardon the Biden. And I actually agree. I know you're gonna disagree. After being at a. At a prison. I was not in a camp. I was in a prison. And I said this, Hunter Biden wouldn't last 48 hours in Danbury.
Garrett Ziegler
Okay.
Stephen K. Bannon
It's psychologically crushing because it's too hard. It's also a dangerous environment. And the drug. The place is swamped with drugs. One of the reasons these young men get sentenced for 15, 20 years for drug discipline. They get there. Just getting your mind around the fact I'm not getting out of here in 20 years when I'm 25 years old. Do the math. It's a swamp of drugs. He will literally be. He will crack.
Garrett Ziegler
And some of that's because of his Own daddy, you know, he instituted the mandatory minimum is absolutely ironic and pathetic.
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, no, this is one of the reasons. And she and Kamala Harris is queen of the mass incarcerations. That's why the African American and the Hispanic men are no fans.
Garrett Ziegler
Yes.
Stephen K. Bannon
Talk to me about pardons though for the Biden family. Are they going to do blanket pardons for themselves? They have to, Right?
Garrett Ziegler
Well, I think that if he had to prioritize, it would be Hunter and Jimmy. Jimmy has gotten off scot free, basically. He's gotten a couple of interviews on the Hill. He perjured himself when he got interviewed by the Hill. And that's Joey's younger brother, the twin. He basically looks like Joe. And we have dozens of federal felonies for Jimmy, money laundering, far violations, the things that they should have charged Hunters with and they didn't. And you know, one of the value adds of this report is not just going through things that occurred from 2017 to 2019. It's. We have now a list.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hold it up.
Garrett Ziegler
Of every.
Stephen K. Bannon
So the camera can see it.
Garrett Ziegler
644 pages. So it's a fifth printing. One of the, one of the people wanted something on the spine, so I'm going to leave some copies.
Stephen K. Bannon
And they tried to shut it down. The lawyer.
Garrett Ziegler
They still are.
Stephen K. Bannon
The lawyer for Hunter Biden tried to get you rolled up in the courts, sue you and try to shut it down, Correct?
Garrett Ziegler
Precisely. They want a permanent injunction to take our websites down. Our trial with Hunter is set for September of 2025. They just set a trial date.
Stephen K. Bannon
They set a trial date.
Garrett Ziegler
They set a trial.
Stephen K. Bannon
But that all go away with the pardon, Right. Is that going to be part of the negotiations?
Garrett Ziegler
We don't know.
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay.
Garrett Ziegler
We don't know. But we have listed.
Stephen K. Bannon
Just take your number two principal out and break that down. That's. I'm giving you a hint there, bro. Make sure that you're, making sure that you're, you're, you're, you're in all of it.
Garrett Ziegler
It's cost us 400 grand.
Stephen K. Bannon
But, but President Trump should not get involved in this.
Garrett Ziegler
No. And he never committed to doing it. He was, he was not going to rule it out because I think art of the deal. Why would you take something off the table if you can get something in return? He doesn't want his only surviving son to go to prison. He wouldn't make it. Even if it's a Club Fed situation.
Stephen K. Bannon
I'm an advocate of and I detest these people and I think they're feral dogs. But just in the concept of the American republic. His son won't make it, I can tell you. They won't make it in a federal prison. And his charges are federal prison charges. They're not club fed like Cohen and Peter were in camps. He would go to a. He would go to a lower medium. He'd be dead in 24 hours. But in a low, he's not going to make it. His father should step up. And I think other members of the family are going to have to get blanket pardons, are they not, sir?
Garrett Ziegler
If Joe is looking out for them, he should. But, you know, if the gates comes in, God, you know, wills it. We have to have one standard of justice, meaning Jimmy clearly committed felonies, some of which are still in the statute of limitations.
Stephen K. Bannon
You've looked at this, looked at his administration. His regime is referred to here as deeply as anybody. The just for justice sake. And make sure their use of lawfare can never happen again.
Garrett Ziegler
Yes.
Stephen K. Bannon
Where do you think we ought to go in investigations? Whether should a special counsel be set up? What should doj? What should Matt Gaetz do at doj?
Garrett Ziegler
Well, I think his first priority should be getting good 93 US attorneys because they're the ones overseeing all these careers in the 93 districts. I think Guam and the Mariana islands share a U.S. attorney, but that's where I'm focused. And we have 45 names of people within the DOJ who were involved in the Biden investigation. Priority number one, get good U.S. attorneys. Number two, demote, preferably fire, people who were involved in this, because they're gonna be.
Stephen K. Bannon
You have the names?
Garrett Ziegler
Names. In fact, we're being. There's a criminal investigation of our group at the DOJ over doxing. And all we did was post government email addresses, something you and I pay for.
Stephen K. Bannon
So walk our studio. This again, you're saying there's actual people in there that you think. Because they're already putting a list together of senior officers involved in the Afghan withdrawal. Yes, because the family wants justice for that. Right. You're saying at DOJ and other agencies, you guys have already compiled a list of who you believe should be investigated for four agencies.
Garrett Ziegler
That same concept which the irs, the doj, main justice, the FBI, and the US Attorney's Office for the District of Delaware, which that new political appointee would have oversight of. That concept that they're mulling over with the General should be applied to every single agency. And whatever Rachel Maddow and others fearmonger about, what we're doing is simply delivering accountability. Nobody is going to get put in. This isn't the 17th century. But people need to lose their jobs and that requires making them Schedule C and letting the president people through that.
Stephen K. Bannon
When you talk about that Schedule C versus Schedule F, all this, when you talk that technical language, let our audience know what you mean by that.
Garrett Ziegler
Yes. So there is different grades of federal staffers. Some are what they call GS14. It pertains to PACE or SES. Yes, and the SES is a huge problem too. If they're classified as Schedule C, there is less paperwork that has to be done for the President to fire them. I'm a unitary executive guy. I don't believe in these quasi judicial, quasi congressional agencies. For example, the fcc. There is nothing that is an. Even if we keep the fcc, there's nothing that says the President shouldn't be able to direct the FCC to do what he wants to do. Sure, the commissioners can vote.
Stephen K. Bannon
This gets to the heart of the administrative state.
Garrett Ziegler
That's what I'm obsessed with.
Stephen K. Bannon
Unitary executive tell our audience for nomenclature means what?
Garrett Ziegler
The President is the sole authority. The chief executive officer, the chief executive officer who can direct his executive agencies to do what he wants. Within the Constitution. Nothing you and I or anybody else is suggesting is unconstitutional. In fact, we're trying to return it. The Constitution does not create a quasi judicial quasi executive entity. Right. So the Congress created the F. I'm just picking the FCC as one of them because Brendan Carr got appointed yesterday. They created the thing, but then they gave the President the power to appoint the commissioners. And yet the staffers are career. There should be no such thing as career. And if there is, the new president should be able to fire at will. You work at the pleasure of the President. If the President doesn't like me one day I should be gone.
Stephen K. Bannon
Right.
Garrett Ziegler
And everybody else. That's how it was with Peter and everybody else.
Stephen K. Bannon
Also this fantasy post Watergate and post the Kennedys that the Justice Department is an independent entity. It's not with when Obama has Holder over there, the Democrats. Because it's all infested with progressive Democrats. So the Justice Department is always the lawfare department for the Democrats. But when Republicans in it's got to be totally separated. That is also another thing you're trying to shatter too. That as the chief executive and the chief magistrate, as the Constitution sets, the Justice Department reports directly to the President.
Garrett Ziegler
Precisely. The President is the chief law enforcement officer. It's popular in Washington to say that the AG is. No, that's delegated. And if Jack Smith were still relevant, one of the defenses I think President Trump would offer in the D.C. case is that his election fraud investigations were a direct result of the take care clause. Remember, the president has a different oath than even the vice president. Every single other federal he in his in the Constitution itself, it says he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed. How can you do that if you don't have sole authority over your agencies?
Stephen K. Bannon
Jack Smith, the investigations. Let's talk about the investigations of these people. Jack Smith should be they're all talking about they're going to leave the country. Your thoughts?
Garrett Ziegler
Well, I hope that they give us an update on when and where so we can stage celebrations at the airport. I would love to be able to see these people off. We have to hold them to it. That's one thing that Marco Polo might do is we might reach out to the publicist of each and every single bigwig celebrity, politician, etc. That said they were going to leave and make sure that they're gone.
Stephen K. Bannon
What about his pick so far? Matt Gaetz?
Garrett Ziegler
Various people like this tremendous. I'm most excited about Gates and even if JD has to break a tie, I don't care. Kamala did that with the inflation reduction.
Stephen K. Bannon
Would you do a recess appointment of the attorney general?
Garrett Ziegler
You absolutely have to. If they're not going to. If you know that JD can't break the tie and it's going to be 51 to 49 because it seems like the two women, Collins and Murkowski are going to vote no. Tentatively. We don't know.
Stephen K. Bannon
Cash Patel versus Mike Rogers.
Garrett Ziegler
No, there's no question.
Stephen K. Bannon
Cash, tell me about Rogers.
Garrett Ziegler
Well, I can't say better than you did. It's a total status quo pick. I think that Mike Rogers would have been a 2017 Trump picked and that's not what we need.
Stephen K. Bannon
Right.
Garrett Ziegler
Seven years have transpired. They've tried to kill him multiple times. Robert Mueller is.
Stephen K. Bannon
Where do people go to get everything about you? Where have you back on you in town for a couple days?
Garrett Ziegler
No, I leave it for. That's why I'm so grateful I can come in.
Stephen K. Bannon
Ziggler always moving. Where do people get you?
Garrett Ziegler
Marco polo501c3.org and our trial with Hunter set for September. You can go there to look in 25.
Stephen K. Bannon
That's never going to happen. Right? Take your number. Take your number two. It's not prepared. That's not going to happen. That'll all be a global settlement. No, it's ridiculous. And his fathers should pardon him. Just pardon him. The kids not going to make it so. He's not men. He's not tough enough. He's a bite.
Garrett Ziegler
He's not 18 million. He's got to pay back. 18 million.
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, that's for a different thing. You're doing amazing work.
Garrett Ziegler
Thank you for having me.
Stephen K. Bannon

You know, by law can't spy on American citizens. Wait for it. They do. Natalie Winters, we're going to have you back on. We're trying to get Mike Benz on tonight. We're going to drill down Natalie on this FBI situation between cash. Okay, so we got Mike Benz. We're doing some. Mike Benz will join us at 5:00 to go through Mike Rogers versus Cass Patel for FBI summary, thoughts. Sunny. Sunny Blonde from West Palm Beach. That's, that's. Hey, not me. That's the New York magazine. Your thoughts, ma'am?
Natalie Winters
Yeah. Trolling the libs until. How about this? Biden's on trial. I think we should just have a quick moment of silence. I think two top watchdogs over at the CIA and ODNI have already resigned in the wake of Trump victory. They won't be missed. My concluding thoughts are, Look, I think mtg said it brilliantly. These next, what, 61, 60 days are going to be some of the most treacherous and precarious days that we have ahead of us. If you look at the lead up to the election, I think that was, you know, training season. It was boot camp. We deploy on January 20th, right. And they're already fighting, trying to make that deployment so much more difficult for us to the point that they're giving Ukraine long range missiles. It's treason. It's in your face. Right? They want Zelensky to be able to come to the negotiating table with the maximum ability to extract concessions not just from Putin, but from Donald Trump. And if there is no greater example of what treason or being a traitor to this country is in terms of foreign policy, I think it's on full display right there. And that enemy and that. Yeah, we're gonna use that word. Morning Joe. Morning, Mika. The enemy within, they're not just going to hand over power come January 20th. They're gonna ram through judges, they're gonna deploy their shock troops on the street and they're going to sue this administration to hell, come hell and high water, to hell and back. So this audience needs to buckle up and get ready because we certainly cannot bank on RINO senators and Rhino congressmen. Mike Johnson is not our fearless leader. He doesn't have a backbone. He doesn't do anything. He's useless. So it's gonna be up to this audience to do what they've always done and stand in the breach and hold the line. Because history has proven that they're the only ones capable of doing that. So I'm so glad we won. But I think we've also just invited a heck of a lot more fights. But like we've said, they're the fights that we've always wanted and they're the fights that we're going to win.
Stephen K. Bannon
To Natalie's point, we just had a referendum on Trump's America first versus the democracy project of the left. Part of this was peace he's going to bring peace to Ukraine. They are escalating this rapidly to. I'm not going to go to where some people are. They're trying to start World War Three. I already think we're in World War three. But this escalation is dangerous. And the American people just rendered a verdict. This is exactly what they voted against. Let me repeat that. They voted against this. They want Trump, Trump back in office and they want the peace and prosperity that the Trump years had. And you're seeing right now the apparatus in the imperial capital. They ain't going to turn it over, folks, when they're telling Zelensky, we're giving you permission to fire the long range and medium range missiles that we provided to you from the defense contractors and basically have technicians in Ukraine. Yes, yes, yes, we do. Maybe they're called contractors, but they're technicians launching this. You're escalating when the American people just rendered a verdict. We don't want that. We want a de escalation. We want peace. We want people at the table. And Trump saying, I can do it in 24 hours. Natalie, social media, where do folks get you? Ma'am?
Natalie Winters
Natalie G. Winters on all social media platforms. Thank you for having me.
Stephen K. Bannon

Don't want to hurt his feelings. But he's a guy. Johnson, you got to step up for the low. These are the easy ones. If you can't handle the easy ones, he's not going to handle the hard ones.

Podcast Summary: Bannon’s War Room – Episode 4067: Lawfare And False Allegations Of The Left
Introduction
In Episode 4067 of Bannon’s War Room, broadcasted on November 19, 2024, host Stephen K. Bannon delves deep into the ongoing battle between conservative forces and what he describes as leftist lawfare and false allegations aimed at undermining the conservative movement. Co-host Natalie Winters and guest Garrett Ziegler join Bannon to dissect the strategies employed by the left, the resilience of the MAGA movement, and the impending challenges facing the Trump administration. This episode provides a comprehensive analysis of the political warfare shaping the United States, focusing on legal maneuvers, media influence, and institutional control.
1. The Decline of the Current Regime
Stephen K. Bannon opens the episode with a vehement critique of the current political landscape, labeling the opposition as a "dying regime" engaging in medieval tactics against conservatives.
[00:02] Stephen K. Bannon: "This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people."
Bannon emphasizes the frustration with mainstream media, accusing them of perpetuating lies about conservative figures and movements. He asserts that the American populace is weary of the status quo and is ready for a significant upheaval driven by the MAGA movement.
[00:23] Bannon: "You're just not got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it."
2. Celebrating the MAGA Victory and the Road Ahead
Bannon reflects on the recent successes of the MAGA movement, attributing them to the collective efforts of volunteers and key figures like Elon Musk, Miriam Adelson, and Charlie Kirk. He celebrates the unprecedented mobilization that has led to significant political victories.
[01:00] Bannon: "You have to fight for it. You have to seize the institutions."
He underscores the importance of taking control of major institutions—Wall Street, Silicon Valley, Hollywood, and governmental bodies—to ensure that the conservative agenda prevails against entrenched liberal forces.
3. Natalie Winters on the Sophistication of Leftist Resistance
Natalie Winters provides an in-depth analysis of the sophisticated and well-financed resistance orchestrated by the left. She argues that the opposition has evolved beyond traditional political maneuvering into advanced forms of information, psychological, and legal warfare.
[06:07] Natalie Winters: "Resistance goes very deep. It's very sophisticated, it's very well financed."
Winters identifies key components of this resistance, including judicial manipulation, NGO activism (notably the ACLU), and coordinated efforts among Democratic governors and legislative bodies. She highlights the role of the Democracy Alliance, funded by prominent left-wing billionaires like George Soros and Tom Steyer, in financing these anti-conservative initiatives.
[06:47] Winters: "...they are trying to impeach and nullify and neuter any authority that President Trump has."
4. Lawfare: Legal Warfare as a Strategic Tool
The discussion shifts to the concept of lawfare, where legal systems and institutions are used as weapons against political adversaries. Winters explains how organizations like Democracy Forward are amassing significant resources to file lawsuits against the Trump administration immediately upon its re-entry into power.
[09:30] Winters: "These aren't actual, credible allegations. It's Kavanaugh 2.0. It's just more examples of lawfare."
She also mentions the strategy to create liberal dark money organizations targeting influential figures and the establishment of legal war chests poised to challenge Trump’s policies from day one.
5. Indivisible and the Legacy of Organized Resistance
Winters discusses Indivisible, a group that emerged from the 2016 Resistance movement, outlining its comprehensive playbook designed to counteract MAGA efforts at every governmental level. The group’s tactics include mobilizing constituents to pressure Congress members and implementing coordinated shutdowns and delays.
[11:00] Winters: "We will play hardball wherever we've got Democrats in local, city or state office pushing them to block, delay and challenge Maga's attacks."
Winters emphasizes the organized and calculated nature of Indivisible's strategies, suggesting that they represent a continuation of the left’s broader initiative to maintain control over American political institutions.
6. Interview Segment with Garrett Ziegler: DOJ Reforms and FBI Nominations
Guest Garrett Ziegler joins Stephen Bannon to discuss the imperative for Department of Justice (DOJ) reforms and the critical battle over FBI Director nominations. Ziegler advocates for appointing individuals like Cash Patel over Mike Rogers, arguing that the latter represents the status quo and lacks the aggressiveness needed to counteract leftist lawfare.
[36:40] Ziegler: "The President is the sole authority. The chief executive officer, the chief executive officer who can direct his executive agencies to do what he wants."
He outlines a strategy to purge corrupt officials from the DOJ and emphasizes the importance of unilateral presidential control over executive agencies to prevent interference from partisan elements within the government.
7. Hunter Biden Pardons and Legal Accountability
The conversation shifts to the controversial topic of pardoning Hunter Biden, with Bannon asserting that President Trump should not involve himself in pardoning Biden family members. Ziegler counters by highlighting the deep-seated issues within the Biden administration and the need for accountability.
[35:05] Bannon: "Hunter Biden wouldn't last 48 hours in Danbury. It's psychologically crushing because it's too hard. It's also a dangerous environment."
Ziegler emphasizes that Trump should focus on using DOJ reform to hold the Biden administration accountable rather than offering pardons, which could undermine the legal process and set dangerous precedents.
8. The Battle for the FBI Director Seat: Cash Patel vs. Mike Rogers
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to the contentious nomination battle for FBI Director. Bannon and Ziegler argue vehemently in favor of Cash Patel, portraying him as the bold, necessary choice to overhaul the FBI and combat lawfare effectively.
[42:12] Ziegler: "There's no question."
Bannon criticizes Mike Rogers, labeling him a "swamp guy" unsuited to lead the FBI in the fight against entrenched liberal interests. The duo advocates for a "blowtorch" approach to the FBI, suggesting that Patel would provide the aggressive leadership required to purge the institution of its current biases.
9. The Threat of Escalating Political Warfare
Bannon warns of an escalating political conflict resembling revolutionary warfare, with the left deploying various forms of resistance aimed at dismantling the Trump administration’s initiatives. He compares the opposition to historical mercenary forces, emphasizing their lack of genuine allegiance to American values.
[48:11] Bannon: "They just have to fight this system because Donald Trump has proven time and time again that the Republican parties are loyal to him or the Republican Party's loyal to him."
He highlights the strategic importance of seizing control of institutions to prevent the left from using them as tools for prolonged political warfare.
10. Concluding Remarks: A Call to Action
In his final remarks, Bannon reiterates the need for an ongoing and aggressive counter-movement to ensure the sustainability of the MAGA victory. He encourages listeners to remain vigilant, proactive, and united in the face of sophisticated opposition strategies.
[54:54] Bannon: "Make sure the government cannot. Or a foreign government or just bad actors can listen to your devices."
He underscores the importance of securing institutional power and maintaining momentum to thwart the left’s attempts to reclaim control through legal and psychological tactics.
