Stephen K. Bannon (29:38)
See the video, here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. So there's a rumor the IG Report is going to be out. I don't know, sometime today. Tomorrow we're going to dive into that big league. Carrie Lake, named as Voice of America, a huge piece in the New York Times. Kind of lead story in the New York Times. Don't know if I made a print edition. I'm going to check here momentarily. But it's all about you. This audience fixed bayonets and basically retrieving Pete Hegseth's candidacy. So you got three things going on. The world war, the debt. You got the war, the debt and the invasion. To keep it simple, the war, the debt and the invasion. Lead story on Zero Hedge is how an explosion of spending is happening. The greatest. Remember, the fiscal year of the government starts one October. So October, November, December, I think this will be the greatest deficit we've ever had Outside the pandemic, extraordinary events. But for normal course of business, I think we're on track to have by the end of December the greatest ever and nobody can figure it out. We know revenue is kind of down or off, but there's an explosion and I've got it up on. I think I've got it up on. In fact, I know I got it up on Getter put up last night and we're going to have some people here break it down for you. So, number one, the debt is exploding because they're trying to jam Trump up to the war. You know, now you get Poland. You got all the guys in NATO saying, hey, I don't know, we're not putting in. I don't know if we're putting in security forces. Who's guaranteeing that we're not going to do that. We. Poland. They talk in the general, NATO's got to do it. NATO's got to do it. NATO ought to do something. But then when they talk about specific commitments, well, I don't know if we can do it. Well, here's what the United States is never under Donald Trump, never going to put a troop anywhere near peacekeeping there in Israel or the Middle East. Not going to happen. Been there, done that. 20 years in Afghanistan, Iraq, what, 15 years in Vietnam or 13 years in Vietnam, in Korea. We're still in Korea. Korea is imploding right now. Korea is imploding. They just declared martial law last week. Not only lasted for a couple hours, but the defense minister committed, tried to commit suicide. Now, they said the guys were marching on the election thing to get to. They take that election integrity even bigger than MAGA does. They're all insurrectionists and they're running the government. He tried to commit suicide. The whole thing spinning out of control. You got Turkey and all. You remember, they're cheering over the weekend and MSNBC had every up there and CNN and all these shows, all these. I told you, they're not Jeffersonian. Democrats are hanging people right now doing all the revenge killings. And Erdogan, Erdogan, Erdoan wants to reverse everything Ataturk did 100 years ago. It's the caliphate. He's going to go back to the Ottoman Turks, the original glory when they took over Constantinople, you know, the Visigoths and the Goths, everybody took a run on Rome, but, hey, they lasted for another thousand years. Over there, the Byzantine Empire, they were taken down finally, essentially by the Kurds. They took him over. The Ottoman Empire went all the way down to Saudi Arabia, Mecca And Medina, the two holy sites. He wants it before he checks out. Note to self, he's a NATO ally doing bombing runs on folks up there. So much for NATO allies. And all day long and all they're talking about and all they're on President Trump. They call him President Trump's the advisors. They're all over Waltz. They're all over Marco Rubio. Hex does not have anything to do with him because he's going through his turn in the barrel, but nonstop. They want, you know, we got to portion this thing off. It's like Germany after the war. America's got to have. We have to have nothing. Send them a few more shells over to Israel. They took, they blew up Hezbollah. That's what started this thing, the domino effect. Hell, they did 100 bombing runs yesterday, and they're sitting there going, oh, you got to have. You know you're going to do this. Hey, get all the millions, I think, I don't know, it was 10 million. Went into Europe in the, in the first Syrian crisis, took down Merkel's government, destroy it. Started to destroy Europe, send them all back. War's over. Assad's gone. He's up in. He's up in Moscow drinking vodka with, with Putin and the KGB guys. Good riddance. He's a bad guy. Nobody. But I'll tell you, I sat in the, the National Security Council with the President. I told him right there, hey, can I see some evidence? These chemical attacks, you talk a lot about it. Where's. Where are the facts? Where's the evidence? These people will lie to you, look you in the eye and lie to you. They will look you in the eye and lie to you. That's the deep state. They got their own deal. What they want to do, they want to get up cheek by jowl. Tulsi Gabbard knows this is what I hate her. They got up cheek by jowl with the Russians and they want to get tangled because they want to get. They want. Now why are they, with everything else going in the world, why are they so focused on getting in war with the Russians? You notice I didn't say war with the kgb. Putin and these guys are bad hombres. They're gangsters. I got that. There's a lot of gangsters in the world. The framers and founders of our nation understood that. They said, don't, whatever you do. We got our own deal here, here, the new Jerusalem. Here, here, here. Don't go abroad looking for monsters to slay. We had to do it. We had. When we did it, we had to do it. Barbary pirates, we had to do that. Hell, they'd taken all the shipping. We couldn't send anything out. Even that was a little on the margin. That was a little questionable. But, hey, he had to do it. Went and did it and we did it and then came home. So the war, they're getting Trump. I'm telling you, they are sucking us into something that's 100 times worse than Vietnam. You think Vietnam was bad? Man, that's the jungle down there. When the French leave, it's terrible, and the people have fought it. The sacrifice of our troops. Horrible. Just horrible. Horrible and not supported. But that is nothing compared to what this thing is. You take that ark from Russia, through the bloodlands of Ukraine, you take it down to Romania and the Balkans, you get into Turkey and Greece, you come across Assyria, you cut all the way down the Tigris and Euphrates to Iraq, Persia. These are ancient, ancient, ancient vendettas. People have been over there killing each other for thousands of years. Thousands and thousands and thousands of years. They're going to be killing each other a thousand years from now. That's what President Trump says is sand and death. Don't do it on the debt. Read the. Read. I'll put, Put the. Put the. We'll break it down later. Put the. Zero hit story of exploding. They're trying to handcuff Trump right now, and they just passed the NDA. Oh, yeah, suck on this. You got a trillion dollar defense budget. Well, Trump comes in and says, no, I don't want to appropriate that. I got the Doge guys, they're right here. The Doge guys are here, and they want to. And they want to. They got some other ideas. Well, we can't. We pass it. We got a top line number. We passed it. This is the games they're playing. And everybody's sitting there calling me, Steve, you're overselling that. It can still change. I said, okay, fine, just show me where it's ever changed, ever, even a marginal change. Show me. Once that top line's locked in, it's locked in. That's where they pass it. And programmatically, they kind of got the programs. We got to do this, we got to do this. We got to do this, we got to do that. You may carve it out on the side, but you're not going to get to it. You're not going to get down to it. If you don't get down to that defense budget, there's no Doges, no cuts. Where are you going to take it? You can't take entitlements now. You can't. You can't. Can't. Here's why. It's not that maybe you should the math. It's a contractual obligation to the working class and middle class. You've got one thing. You're hanging on that little $1,200 check and some Medicare and some health insurance or health, not great, but it's something. And you got to. That's in time with. That's a deal. That's a contract with you. And they can't break it. They can renegotiate and revote it, but you got to say so on that. You're at the table. They just can't do that. That's what's discretionary spending. So don't talk to me about $2 trillion unless you understand how they're jamming you up right now and jamming Trump up right now. Because you think these folks up here, you think that, you think they give a damn, a tinker's damn what Trump thinks. They do not. They may go in the camera. And, you know, I, you know, somehow I got to really look at these nominees and I got to, you know, got to advise him and consent with him. Come on, man. Behind closed doors. No way. Impossible. And Vivek. And when they walked up the other day, the only thing they understand is fear. How do you think we got rid of Ray? How do you think we saved Hexa? Don't look. Ask me. Look at the New York Times. How do we do that? This audience, you fixed bayonets and said, hey, no more gates. We should never let him go. No more wobbly Republicans. I don't want to hear any happy talk. I don't want to hear any whinging. Trump took a bullet in four weeks. Took a bullet to the head, Chris. Ray, not shrapnel. Another reason you're gone. Took a bullet to the head four months later, won a landslide victory. And you guys in the Senate wouldn't even be have jobs or have chairmanships if it wasn't for Trump who dragged everybody across the goal line as he always does. And then you got the border, and nobody's talking about the border. We got Oscar Blue and Berquam down there in harm's way again. Why is that? They're all trying to get across. Can you imagine this? They're not even kicking in ice and setting the platform and training people up and getting them in the uniforms again. And telling ice, give me a cheery aye, aye. Let's do some calisthenics. Trump's coming in. They're going to do shock and all, but we need some bodies and maybe coordinate with Texas. And hey, we got to go. You know, we relieve. They're going to do it differently. We understand that. But here you go. We get everybody lined up. No, they're not doing that. They're doing the exact opposite. And what media is trying to do because remember, all they want to do in politics is follow the horse race. Follow the horse race. That's for the dumb and lazy. He's up. He's bad. No, but Desantis and Youngkin and Nikki Haley, it's all. It's all nonsense. Doesn't mean anything. So the dumb and lazy on the nominations and we got to get them across. So we do spend some time on it, but the time is really saying, audience, hey, today we're fixing bayonets as Pete Hegseth or it's Tulsi Gabbard or it's Bobby Kennedy because they all got to get approved. We're not obsessing audiences. They just came out of Lisa Murkowski's office and we're live here outside of Lisa Murkowski for her pearls of wisdom. We don't give a damn what Lisa Murkowski has to say. It's a whole scam up there in Alaska. People in Alaska ought to be ashamed of themselves for not taking care of this thing. Ought to be ashamed of themselves in Alaska. You got good folks up there. You got this voting thing that you let them come in and you're never going to have good people up there. You're never going to have fire breathers while you've allowed to do it. Just saying. So I love the people in last, but don't give me the last frontier. And we're, you know, walking around with no shirts, jumping in ice ponds. Take care of business. Get Lisa Murkowski out of there. She's embarrassing you guys or Collins. Collins can't even talk. Man. You ought to be real proud of that one. That's a beauty. Not physically. I'm talking about the whole package. She's a beaut. But we're not waiting for her pearls of wisdom because underneath that, you've got to get the personnel boom to do it. And they're doing. The transition team's doing good for second and third tier. But it's also the convergence of the thing itself. They're not standing there in this period trying to have Trump's people, in some logical coordinated way, relieve the watch because at high noon you give them a cheery aye aye. I got the deck in the con, baby. We got this. They're not doing that. They're trying to jam it up. And this is why. Ray shocked them. Shocked them. They thought Ray would at least he's hurt the professor. He's at least going to stick out for a year. They needed a year air cover. And here's what's really shocked them. Weissman, changing your Huggies tonight? Ask yourself a question. Ask yourself this question. What does Ray know that you guys don't? Why did Ray capitulate? Why did Ray, for all the media, that for all those years. Was it Ken Dillian? What do they call him? Fusion Ken. Brother, we're all over you. You should know that. Got some bad stuff, Ken. What does Ray know that you brothers and sisters don't? Why did Ray surrender and get the hell out of town? Why didn't he stand in the breach? Why didn't he stand up for you? Why didn't he provide air cover for y'all? Ask yourself that. The one guy you needed, the one guy you needed ran next in the world. For over 10 years, Patriot Mobile has.
