Steve Bannon
Attorney for the Southern District of New York has resigned. That's according to a senior news official.

Stephen K. Bannon
Speak NBC News senior official speaking to NBC News.

Emil Bove
There is a new letter. We have obtained the letter that was sent today by Bove after the acting U.S. attorney, Ms. Sassoon, resigned. Let me share that with all of you. So this is Emil Bove writing a letter that was hand delivered to Danielle Sassoon this afternoon, quote, Ms. Sassoon, in response to your refusal to comply with my instructions. That's the earlier letter Chris and Mimi are talking about to dismiss the prosecution of Mayor Eric Adams. I write to notify you of the following. First, your resignation is accepted. This decision is based on your choice to continue pursuing a politically motivated prosecution despite an express instruction to dismiss the case. You lost sight of the oath you took when you started at the department by suggesting that you retain discretion to interpret the Constitution in a manner inconsistent with the policies of a democratically elected president and Senate confirmed Attorney General. Second, you indicated that the prosecution team is aware of your communications with the Justice Department and is supportive of your approach and is unwilling to comply with the order to dismiss the case. Accordingly, the AUSAs principally responsible for this case are being placed on off duty administrative leave pending investigations by the Office of the Attorney General and the Office of Professional Responsibility, both of which will also evaluate your conduct. At the conclusion of these investigations, the Attorney General will determine whether termination or some other action is appropriate. Andrew Weissman, is that a threat of prosecution?
- [01:43]
Andrew Weissmann
Well, it's certainly a threat of firing of potential civil and I guess potentially criminal cases. You know, when I've been thinking about what is the sort of upshot, what's the ramification, this is one where the employees who are, who may suffer these, these adverse employment actions, and Emil Beaufe goes out of his way to say, this is not an email, this is not an adverse employment action, when of course it is, it's another sort of false denial. This is going to end up in a court. This is where I just don't know that there's playing chess and thinking about what's going to happen. The palpably thin and fallacious letters that we're seeing out of Emile Beauvais are going to be challenged. The ones that have been given to the FBI. Those are going to be subject to litigation. The things that he's doing now with the SDNY and with the Public Integrity Section, those are going to be subject to litigation. This is the kind of thing where it's going to tie them up because they're going to have to put meat on the bones on these allegations that are just false. I mean, it's really sort of an interesting thing that they are not deft in the way that they're doing this because there will be litigation and if it's not brought by the department, it's going to be brought by the employees saying, what you did here is illegal. You know, again, we can go Back to Trump 1.0. We saw Andy McCabe bring his case and win. We saw Pete Strzok bring his case and win. We saw Lisa Page bring her case and win. And so here, when you're trying to do these sort of mass terminations and mass employment actions, you are going to see a host of litigation where these people in the departments and Emile Beauvais being the top one, are going to have to stand up and under oath, justify what they're doing. And, and I do not think it's going to stand up. So this is, it's, I think, you know, it's worth, it's worth thinking about where this is going to go and how much I think this is going to end up sort of biting them later in the day when courts get their hands on this and they're not able to just take a unilateral action. Because we do see that the courts are also standing up to what they have determined to be illegal and improper activity by the Trump administration.

Unknown Speaker
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people.
- [04:36]
Steve Bannon
The people have had a belly full of it.
- [04:38]
Unknown Speaker
I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything.

Steve Bannon
In the world to stop that, but.

Unknown Speaker
You'Re not going to stop it.
- [04:42]
Stephen K. Bannon
It's going to happen.
- [04:43]
Brian Glenn
And where do people like that go.
- [04:45]
Steve Bannon
To share the big L. Maga media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
- [04:54]
Unknown Speaker
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
- [04:57]
Steve Bannon
If that answer is to save my.

Stephen K. Bannon
War Room here's your host, Stephen K. Banner.
- [05:13]
Steve Bannon
It's Thursday the 13th of February, year of our Lord 2025. So many, many, many stories. And of course, we just don't chase stories. We try to get you the signal, not the noise in the nation's capital and particularly around President Trump and dropping, throwing the thunderbolts on the days of thunder. This one may be. Well, we'll get to the Bobby Kennedy. We get all of it, plus a judge trying to reverse and the federal court judges are coming in and, you know, in this first wave, trying to slow things down, give temporary stays, local judges trying to give them for the nation all that. Terry Schilling will join us here. What's so important? And we're going to go back and forth. I think the. Are they starting already in the. We have. Let's go. Let's go ahead and go to Trump and Modi right now. We're going to cut to the east rim of the White House. Let's go ahead and go.
- [06:02]
Narendra Modi
And I firmly believe that every person in India respects your sentiments.
- [06:06]
Stephen K. Bannon
Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you.
- [06:07]
Steve Bannon
Thanks a lot.
- [06:08]
Stephen K. Bannon
Any questions, please?
- [06:09]
Steve Bannon
Yes, you are, you are both very.
- [06:12]
Stephen K. Bannon
Popular leaders in your respective countries. You have spoken about a common sense diplomatic doctrine.
- [06:18]
Narendra Modi
So what's the Trump Modi doctrine that.
- [06:20]
Steve Bannon
We should expect from the meeting, make.
- [06:23]
Stephen K. Bannon
Our world better and safer? Well, I think more than anything else will be the unity. We have great unity. We have great friendship, he and I and our countries. And I think it's only going to get closer. But it's very important that we remain united as countries. We are, we're friends and we're going to stay that way.
- [06:42]
Narendra Modi
President Chaucer, how are you going to fight China?
- [06:46]
Steve Bannon
If you're going to be tough with.
- [06:47]
Narendra Modi
India on trade, how are you going to beat China then?
- [06:50]
Stephen K. Bannon
We're in very good shape to beat anybody we want, but we're not looking to beat anybody. We're looking to do a really good job. We've done a fantastic job for the American people. We had a great four years and we were interrupted by a terrible administration, absolutely terrible. They didn't know what they were doing. And now we're putting it back together and I think it's going to end up being much stronger than it was before, even much stronger than it was before.
- [07:23]
Narendra Modi
President Trump, first of all, congratulations for the fantastic 24 days of your presidency, historic and unprecedented decisions that you made, transformational reforms. I am particularly impressed by the expose on usaid. And I would like you to share with us if you think USAID had a role in election interference in the US in 2020 and Indian elections in 2024.
- [07:57]
Stephen K. Bannon
So it could have had a role. There were a lot of bad things that happened in 2020. I think bad things happened in 2024, but it was too big to rig. We won by a tremendous margin. We won every swing state. We won the popular vote by millions of votes. So it was too big to rig. But yeah, I think they probably tried. We're looking to go to a system now much different where one day voting voter ID and you just, we have to do that. And paper ballots, we want paper ballots. And when they do that, we're going to clean it up very, very well. But we had a great 2016. We had a much better 2020 election, but bad things happened and we had the best of all. We had, they say, the most consequential in history. 129 years, most consequential. So it was a great election and it gives me a chance to work again with the prime minister. And India, we're going to be, we're going to have a great relationship together.
- [09:15]
Steve Bannon
Do you see India playing a role in your plan to broker a peace in Ukraine? And if I could ask you about a development in your Hometown Today, the U.S. attorney has resigned over the DOJ's request to drop the case into Eric Adams. Did you personally request the Justice Department to drop that case?
- [09:31]
Stephen K. Bannon
No, I didn't. I know nothing about it. I did not. I think that just to answer your other question, we're just going to get along well. We're going to get along with all countries. We're going to do very well. We're going to be doing, I think, record business, record numbers. And we're going to work with India also. We have some very big trade deals to announce in the very near future.
- [10:06]
Narendra Modi
Or a presidential similar. And Mr. President, what you would like to say about the Bangladesh issue, because we saw and it is evident that how the deep state of United States was involved in regime change during the Biden administration. Then Mohammed Yunus made junior sorrows also. So what is your point of view about the Bangladesh and what is the role that the deep state played in the situation in Bangladesh?
- [10:48]
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, there was no role for our deep state. It was this is something that the prime minister has been working on for a long time and has been worked on for hundreds of years, frankly, I've been reading about it. But I will leave Bangladesh to the prime minister.
- [12:08]
Narendra Modi
As far as Russia, Ukraine conflict is concerned, I'm very happy that President Trump has taken initiatives to restore peace and had telephone calls with President Putin and President Zelensky. The world had this thinking that India somehow is a neutral country in this whole process. But this is not true. India has a side, and that side is of peace. From the very first day, I have been talking about the importance of dialogue and diplomacy and a peaceful solution. And when I met President Putin in the presence of media, I had told him that this is not the era of war. And I have firm conviction that problems cannot be resolved on the battlefield. The two sides will have to come to the negotiating table.
- [13:06]
Stephen K. Bannon
I just want to add to that. We had a very good phone call yesterday with President Putin. It lasted maybe an hour and a half. It was excellent. And I think we went a long way toward getting a solution to the horrible war where so many people are being killed, especially soldiers, on the battlefield. At least a million and a half soldiers have been killed on a ridiculous war that would have never happened if I were president. But we've got a long way to. I think we've got a long way to solving it. Tomorrow there's a meeting in Munich, and then next week there's a meeting in Saudi Arabia, not with myself or President Putin, but with top officials. And Ukraine will be a part of it, too. And we're going to see if we can end that war. That war is a horrible war. It's a vicious, bloody war. We want to end it. To your other question, that U.S. attorney was actually fired. I don't know if he or she resigned, but that U.S. attorney was fired. Okay, go ahead.
- [14:11]
Narendra Modi
Mr. Prime Minister, I have a question. What is the role that you expect India to play? Visa, the US Competition with China, and in your broader vision for peace in the Middle East?
- [14:25]
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, I think we're doing very well in our competition with everybody. I think you're going to see a nation that really is going forward at a very rapid pace. Our economy is going to be fantastic. We're doing things to make it that way. And we announce some very big elements today of success. I call it an element of success, reciprocal tariffs, so that somebody charges us. We charge them the same amount, which has never been done in our country before. We've always been taken advantage of by other countries. And we allowed that to happen foolishly, but we can, and we're not going to allow that any longer. So I think we're going to do very well. We've been doing. They say the last three weeks was among the best three weeks ever for a start in a presidency. There's never been anything like it. And when you see what we've been able to do in three weeks, people are really amazed. Even the Prime Minister mentioned it. I think other countries are looking at it. But I just want to thank everybody for being here. This is a terrific man. We're going to make some wonderful trade deals for India and for the. The US and thank you all very much. Thank you.
- [16:03]
Steve Bannon
Okay, right there. That's called a press avail, like we said. And they're running behind. I gave, I told you that was going to be in the East Room because I thought they were close to being on schedule. The East Room, I believe. Check with Brian Glenn. I think they're doing a more formal press conference. So here's the evolution of these events.
- [16:25]
Unknown Speaker
They're called bilats.
- [16:27]
Steve Bannon
That means bilateral meetings. It's President Trump with a head of state or another dignitary of, you know, state level. What happens, you see, we've shown it outside the West Wing entrance. The color guard comes out to kind of a guard of honor for the dignitary given by the President of the United States. The detail will roll up, you know, in the SUVs and the big security cars. President Trump will greet the individual at that entrance to the West Wing. They'll take a few photographs. He'll step inside is a very small kind of foyer. Foyer that's right there with a couple couches. They won't sit, they'll talk. And they'll walk right past the Roosevelt Room, the historic Roosevelt Room that's right there and into the Oval Office. And in the Oval Office, they will then spend a few minutes with each other, catching up, talking. And then President Trump always wants to let the press in for a press availand you saw a lot of journalists and you heard accents from the disembodied voices asking the questions. Many Indian journalists. And President Trump always likes to have the, the local journalists and the people that cover in the press poll for the dignitary, in this case Modi of India, to ask questions and be there for photography. If we have the we've got breaking 911 has really an incredible photo from the side because right there you're seeing the camera pointed towards the fireplace, pointed towards where the President always sits in his chair and then where the dignitary sits. But 911 has this incredible from a side angle, so you can see how crammed the Oval Office is. Not that big BC how many photographers and journalists cram in there. Now why is that and why wasn't it in Biden? The White House has been turned into an action center. It's essentially the field headquarters of President Trump. Like Washington had his field headquarters in Cambridge. Then he headed inyou know, outside of New York, and then he headed in, you know, south of the river, Delaware River. He always put his, you know, field headquarters in Morristown or other places. Trump's field headquarters is the White House. As he's on a full on assault against the administrative and deep state. Now, during these press avails, the President Willand, he normally likes you to kind of stick on the subject since you're sitting there with the dignitary. So he likes the questions that come in. Hey, tell me how it's going. What are you working on? And President Trump right there, very, you know, out there, very aggressive, very, very magnanimous. Hey, we're working a lot of trade deals. Modi's my good friend. Modi's like Abe Trump and Abe and Modi. These are nationalists that see the world through the lens of their country. And although President Trump is not just a global leader, he is the global leader. He has to take a bigger field of vision. These men look at the world through the prism of what is best for their nation and what is best for their countrymen. And that's why you can tell President Trump does not have that rapport with someone like Macron. He doesn't have that rapport with something like Governor Trudeau. Excuse me, Trudeau of Canada, where he's got it with Bolsonaro, you know, he doesn't have it with Lula, where he has it with Giorgio Maloney, you know, he didn't have it to the even forget the guy's name, the socialist president of France. When we were. There was just no chemistry at all. Not just chemistry, but not even same framework. He likes Modi a lot. I think he likes him as a person. And what I think he respects about Modi is Modi's tough. Modi's a tough negotiator. Modi is tough for his people. And President Trump respects toughness. Doesn't hold against somebody, particularly when they're fighting for their people. He respects that. He was looking forward to this day. Also. India is the linchpin of the Indo Pacific strategy and the ability to contain the Chinese Communist Party and ultimately to tee it up so Lao Baijin can take down the Chinese Communist Party. You need some big allies. Since the elites in this country forced Russia into the hands of the Chinese Communist Party. And the worst geostrategic move since the Bolsheviks allowed Nixon to carve off Mao Zedong and the Chinese Communists against them in the early 1970s. President Trump's very attuned. He's very attuned to the fact that Modi's important and Modi's the largest representative of a democracy. I think it's what, 800 million people voting in some enormous amount takes him a month. And Modi is well respected. Modi's strong at Home. Although he has lost some regional elections and some interim, he's not as strong as maybe he could have been. Once again, people will tell you it's because they, they eased up. They got some elements of them. They got a little too rhino, a little too establishment, very powerful. We love showing you the bilats because you get to see, you get to see pure Trump right there. These things inside the Oval Office, you have to understand how rare this is, how rare this is. In fdr, it was so big just to have the fireside chats and every now and again you have very staged, very stylized. You know, these was so kind of kabuki theater. What the press does. President Trump and it shows you his confidence and his confidence builds every day. He's now when he signs an executive order or he has a bilat, he's always having the media in there, it's full. And he takes every question. They're not curious. He just takes hardball questions right there and he answered them. One of the questions, what we started today, the Southern District, district of New York and the situation with Eric Adams. And this gets to be the warning I gave outside the state Supreme Court the other day when I walked to the mics and I warned President Trump's administration that in Manhattan, it's a rigged game up there. Manhattan in elements of Manhattan. And look, I love New York City. I lived in Brooklyn Heights for years. I lived in Manhattan for years. I loved it. I love that city. It's the financial capital of the world. Anybody that's ever had a chance not just to visit, but to live there, you realize the confidence you get when you get to New York and you're able to kind of figure your way out. New York is incredibly empowering when you kind of learn, you break the code of how you're supposed to do it, how you can do it, particularly as a young person. But it's gotten very radicalized and they have a rigged system up there with a source backed prosecutor Alvin Bragg, a Attorney General Tish James. You have a compliant press or left wing media and you have a jury pool, you have these corrupt judges and you have a jury pool of these radicals who get more radical and more and they realize the longer they're out of power. That's kind of what I call the Upper west side crowd that can form grand juries and juries. It's dangerous to the Trump administration. These are dangerous people because they're legal gangsters. It's total lawfare also in the Southern District. And I said, and Terry Schilling is going to be on. There is another injunction or stay today, but we want a big one on the, on President Trump offering the buyouts. And I've said at the federal level, yes, they're going to slow you down. Some of these are going to get tangled up. But by and large, it's going to move forward. You're going to go to appellate court, you're going to get expedited hearings, you're going to go to the emergency docket. Because I think what President Trump's doing, everything you can see, everything I can tell, and I think we're pretty close to it looks like it's constitutional separation of powers is what the executive is supposed to do. However, in the state courts, it's different. This is why Pam Bondi, I think responding to that or at least taking consideration in this whole thing about sanctuary cities, put a shot across their bow with telling with they filed against, against Bragg and Tish James. Big Tish James. That was at the state level for that was the Justice Department coming after him. But it was about sanctuary cities. Eric Adams, the same thing. Eric Adams, the charges were going to be dropped by Southern District and Eric Adams was. And I don't know, I don't think there's any quid pro quo. I don't know of any. I'm not in the loop on that, but I don't know any. But Eric Adams is going to look like going to work with people on making sure the sanctuary city element is not there because New York City is such a mess. And I believe the Southern District of New York, the assistant U.S. attorney just said, no, we're not going to do. I'm going to do what I'm going to do on Eric Adams. And Emil Bovey, who's become a hero on this fired hero, said, you've already tendered your resignation letter because everybody has to. When a president comes in, he says, hey, it's accepted. You got to clean out your office. And they're in meltdown right now. Weissman, msnbc, the entire crowd because they realize Trump's not playing by the old rules. Pam Bondi is not playing by the old rules. This is smash mouth. We're not going to, this is not a gentleman's game of cricket. We're fighting for our country and we're going to fight. And this goes back to the people that, you know, partying on Inauguration Day. It's fine, it's great. But hey, the hardest days are ahead of us. Of all the hard days you've had and it come back, you ain't seen nothing yet. They're not going to give it up. They're not going to give it up. You're going to have to take it from them. They don't care that President Trump won. They don't care that President Trump's in the White House. They don't care if Elon Musk is the richest guy in the world. They don't care what Stephen Miller has to say or Susie Wiles has to say or Howard Lutnick has to say. They don't care. They're going to fight every step of the way. Hey, I wouldn't have it any other way. I wouldn't have it any other way. So every day is going to be a throwdown. Every day is going to be a fight. And there's different parts of this fight, as you know, different verticals. The two central. You know, I said from the beginning, let's look at the three big things. Number one is ending the kinetic part of the Third World War. Look at. They're shredding Pete Hegseth over there. Pete Hegseth said what is obvious and it's time to get on with it. We're not going to support NATO. We're not going to be part of any security guarantee, and the borders are going to go back to 2014 at the minimum. Let's move on. They're saying, oh, he's giving up huge negotiating leverage. Not giving him any negotiating leverage. Come on, cut to it, man. It's time to move on. It's time to move on. And they're shredding Pete on the ending of the kinetic part of the Third World War. President Trump gives an ultimate Hamas. I think they kind of blinked. I think they're giving up some hostages. I'm not sure that High Noon is still the watchword. It's got to be as on as it was the other day. But President Trump's trying to stop that. And they're all over him every second of the day. And he just says, hey, look, I had an hour and a half. He dropped a bomb right there. Yeah, I had had a call with Putin. Hour and a half. Suck on that. Hour and a half with Putin and their arrange. I think they're going to meet in Riyadh. I think they're going to meet in Russia, Moscow. I think Putin's coming here. Wouldn't that be great, you think? Msnbc, Rachel Maddow, you think she'll be catatonic? Putin's coming to Washington and, oh, yeah, he called up and said, hey, JD. So he called Zelensky. JD's over there. Can you sit down with him? Make sure you meet. Because he's got more bad news. Zelensky, the big shot. Not so big anymore. Not when you're stealing our money on the deportations. This is why Eric Adams is so important. Deportations. Things are slowing down. Why are they slowing down? Local officials are fighting the President. They're also getting embeds, like in the FBI. FBI? A bunch of good people leaked the big LA raid the other day. That's going to get ramped up. It's going to get. Need a little more cash to get some logistics and some organization. But it's. You can tell it's a stiff fight from the courts, a stiff fight from the people that don't want this to happen. Not the NGOs, but the embeds, people inside the system. Then you've got the mother of all debt problems. You got the thing in the middle, which is, I say, hey, it's the existential threat. It's the. It's the deficit, the debt, all of it. And today we're kind of having a performative, perfunctory, you know, budget meeting to take care of a budget that's kind of a fantasy that has no meaning when you talk about cash in or cash out. Money has to be raised. Birch Gold. Go to Bannon right now. B a n n o n text 989-898 get the free paper on investing in gold in the age of Trump hit another high today.

Less money. The solvency has now been expedited because.
- [32:51]
Steve Bannon
The priorities in the IRA were green energy subsidies. That was the trade.
- [32:59]
Stephen K. Bannon
With that I asked Mr. Amo or I give Mr. Amo the last minute to close.
- [33:06]
Steve Bannon
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. You have my word that congressional Democrats will always fight for policies that protect.
- [33:14]
Brian Glenn
Medicare benefits and extend its solvency.
- [33:17]
Steve Bannon
And I am hopeful that the commitment.
- [33:20]
Brian Glenn
From my colleagues on the other side is also steadfast.
- [33:26]
Steve Bannon
And there's nothing unnecessary about making that commitment time and time again because our seniors deserve it. In the Inflation Reduction act, we saw historic negotiations of prescription drug prices, lowering.
- [33:41]
Brian Glenn
The cost for seniors of vital drugs, capping the cost of out of pocket expenses a year. So millions of Americans, okay, what we're.
- [33:52]
Steve Bannon
Cutting into, we're going to dip in and out of is the budget. And they want to know that the budget hearing and Jody, Aaron, somebody just got explained to me how this has any real cuts at all. Not out your cuts. Even when they talk programmatically. It doesn't mean anything because they don't stick to them. I want to know. Just. Basically, somebody just riddled me this. Just let's be simple. Technically, we are at the debt ceiling, so we can't borrow any more money. What we are doing is that Scott Besant is under what's called emergency measures, is managing cash flow in what we call the waterfall. So the cash comes in and all the interest on the securities are rolled or paid off as they are, and you don't have any issue of default. And there's clearly a little Runway there because they seem to be managing fine. The second part of this is on the 14th of March. Consider the 14th of March, like the 30th of September, when this whole fiasco started at midnight. You don't have the ability, the technical ability to allow any more funding of the United States government, the federal government. It ends. It can only be extended by what's called a continued resolution that continues on what had happened before September 30th because we never got the appropriations. But remember the single subject appropriations bill, we follow those fights over. And why is single subject appropriations bills fine? Because that is theoretically where happens. What Doge is doing now, it allows a full vetting line by line in these various subcommittees, the committees of jurisdiction on different aspects of the budget. You know, if it's the Pentagon, it's Armed Services, if it's section 8 housing, it's HUD, if it's things related to farm programs, it's the Agriculture Committee. And in these committees, supposedly as the budget is put together, this gets argued out. And in the appropriation process, you get, you get, you argue it, you go through it. And like usaid, the reason these things are not shocking to us is because Eli Crane and Andy Biggs and Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert and I could go on and on and on. Freedom Caucus members and non Freedom Caucus members went through this and fought this at the subcommittee level and the committee level. And you have arguments and votes. That's what democracy is. And you expose what you can expose, or if leadership tells you not to, you don't. And so what is this? And what happened is that leadership always voted them down, tell them to shut up, and they got to a little bit of it, but clearly not to what, to what Doge is doing. So to be clear, folks, as I said now, since we kicked the kid down the road before Christmas on 14 December, around 15 December, gave us January 1st gave us 90 days, 90 days into Trump's administration. So President Trump could have his budget and have his numbers. Because they've been running around on reconciliation, which is a totally different process, believe it or not. And this will be tied to. And they're going to do two reconciliations. And look, they were saying one, one, one. We said it was not going to be one. It was never going to be one. It's too big, too complicated, and it's not going to come. You wouldn't get one bill out until July or August. And they're going to try to bleed Trump out by then. And then it wouldn't be, they go on break. They wouldn't be debated and negotiated and voted on in October and November. Trump's not going to wait that long. And the border and other aspects can't wait that long. But in looking at the reconciliations and spending time with the reconciliations, they took their eye off the ball, maybe purposely, I don't know. I can't get a response on it. The response I get is all kind of, is all kind of gobbledygook, right? All kind of gobbledygook. Okay, we got Brian Glenn. I will hold this, my thoughts on this for a moment. I'm going to go to the East Room. And Brian Glenn, here's the point. Right now, we're hurtling down towards, we're hurtling down towards a situation. We're going to prove a continual resolution. They're going to want to Biden's budget, Biden's numbers, $2 trillion deficit and not one penny of doge in there is going to be cut. In fact, you're going to pay for all the waste, fraud, abuse they've identified. It's insanity. It can't happen. It's got to change. Let's go to the East Room, Real America's Voice, man on the spot in the White House. Brian Glenn. What do you got for us, brother? Put us in the room.
- [38:51]
Brian Glenn
Hey, good afternoon, Steve. Yes, we are in the East Room and waiting for Modi and President Trump to make their way in here. I can imagine, Steve, that a lot of the conversation today is based around tariffs. That seems to be the dominating news headline today. President Trump signing that reciprocal tariff act executive order earlier today and really kind of laying out the groundwork for additional revenue for this country. And I watched Peter Navarro earlier on CNN absolutely give an economics class on the purpose of these tariffs and what this really means to US Revenue and bringing manufacturing back to this country. I asked President Trump in the Oval Office up specifically about the steel tariffs and the aluminum and what it means to the state of Pennsylvania and what it means to them bringing manufacturing back, jobs back, production back. And President Trump, Steve, was very open and said, here's the deal. Make your product here in the US and you don't pay the tariffs. Steve, it's that simple. But we'll also see kind of the kickback as far as the media really scrutinizing these tariffs and actually, you know, putting a lot of fear in the consumer that essentially that would raise prices. Consumer prices. Go ahead. Yes, sir.
- [40:20]
Steve Bannon
Hang on. We're going to cut the Navarro thing. I want you to go back on something. Here's what Trump's saying. He's saying, look, I look at this as external revenue to help, to help pay for this. And don't look them as tariffs because this is a premium market. When you get here, you're going to have to pay a premium, like buying a skit in a skybox at a ball game or a front row ticket at concert. However, if you make it here, you don't pay a tariff. Repeat that. Brian, this is so basic. This is about. This is how you use. Well, how do you think Hamilton came up with the American system? This was Hamilton's logic. You make it here, you don't have to pay. You don't have to pay anything. You make it here. Brian, repeat how simple it is and how the media, particularly the business media, is on uproar.
- [41:07]
Brian Glenn
You're absolutely right. It was almost like they could clip that Oval Office executive order and just play that for high school economics class and go ahead and throw it in college as well. It was simple. Make your product here and you don't pay a tariff. If you're a country and you want to import your goods and you're going to charge us 2% on our stuff, then we're going to charge you 2%. It's equal. Equal. He laid out several examples of countries absolutely charging us eight times as much as we charge them, specifically in automobiles. And he's going to also lay out future plans, which he said in regards to automobile manufacturing here in this country. But to Steve, to your point, it's as simple as that. And I don't know why so many House Democrats, Senate Democrats, the mainstream media doesn't understand this concept. It seems like they are standing up more for foreign interests than they are standing up for us.
- [42:07]
Steve Bannon
Interesting. Here's my could. Yeah, no, Brian, I come to the same place you do about how can they. I think it's I think it's politics. I think they feel that Trump has stolen a march on him and he's the guy about bringing jobs back. So they, even though it's for the good of the country and quite frankly good for what used to be the Democratic base which is now all MAGA and votes for Trump, that they have to fight it and they take these bizarro theories on, oh, inflation is going to come back, it's going to be terrible. They're not worried about American workers. Trump always puts American citizens first. Trump always puts the, you know, the economic benefit of our country and our citizens first. Brian?
- [42:46]
Brian Glenn
Yeah, and also I asked him specifically on the pharmaceutical industry, if people knew how much pharmaceuticals, how much medicine that we need every day is manufactured in China. That becomes a national security issue. He wants to bring drug manufacturers back to this country, wants to do transfer the semiconductors. You and I have talked about this before. That needs to be shifted to the US the way you do that is you got to make it advantageous for companies to build and manufacture their products here in this country. Tariffs is a good conversational starter. That's where it starts. And I think we've saw a lot of movement today. Obviously, you know, manufacturers and Pennsylvania love this. They absolutely love the tariffs and what he's doing to protect US Steel. It's good for America, it's good for business, it's good for consumers. Now, will there be some growing pain? Steve, you and I both know that you could see some temporarily consumer prices go up, but in the long run it's best for this country. And it just takes a visionary like President Trump to put that forward.
- [43:52]
Steve Bannon
Put us in the room there, Brian. This is the historic East Room. So normally when you have these bilats, they go into the oval, there's some quiet, there's some time just for the two of them. Then President Trump normally wants a press avail and Biden and other people, other presidents, normally just the photographers come in there, they take some B roll. President Trump wants the media in there. He loves having local media or in this case Indian media, Indian media there to ask questions. They give some give and take. You saw Modi with the interpreter answer, then they come over for then they spend more time together, which they're doing right now. And there may be a little hot talking, particularly as they talk about tariffs because India's got a whole tariff structure. President Trump signed the reciprocity, the tariffs of reciprocity today, reciprocal tariffs and a little bit of that shots at India, no doubt talking about the East Room. Then they always break. He spent a few minutes and they come across from the West Wing through the portico open right next to the Rose Garden, back into the residence. Then they come up to the. To the East Room. Describe the East Room, Brian, where you are right now with the camera crew.
- [45:00]
Brian Glenn
You did okay, Steve. You did a great job setting that up. Austin, let's show everybody what he just spoke about. There's the podium, obviously. Let's show the podium where Modi and President Trump will be standing. Right now they're kind of doing audio check. They're making sure the cameras are positioned. The teleprompters are in place now, Austin, show down below. This is where a lot of the international media will sit. They've got the headphones for the translation there as well in each seat. So each member gets to put the headset on. They obviously can translate both languages that need be. Let's go ahead and show a shot, Austin. Be could through the double door right there actually on the far dolet go. Go over to the left, Austin, where we've got some individuals just walked out. That's actually where you're going to see the President and President Modi walk out there. Now let's turn the other way. Austin. Let's swing back around. I know you got a camera right next to you, but let's see what we can do. There's a translation booth in the back of this press riser. That is where officials from India will translate what President Trump says into their language and then sent to obviously the ones here in this room and around the world. Steve, this, this is an international obviously type of event this magnitude. And of course we have a press riser across on the other side. So the amount of media in here is huge. Steve, we'll have continued coverage here in the East Room. Back to you.
- [46:30]
Steve Bannon
Hang on one second, Brian. We're gonna take a short commercial break. Real America's voice. You're in the war room. President Trump in Modi of India about to enter the East Room. We'll be back in a moment for the press conference.

Steve Bannon
Thank you, brother. Appreciate your satellite phone store. Chris Hoare, another special. These things sell out quick, so get on it, folks. Grayson, Mo. If you can put that up in the chat room so people can see it, all the different chat rooms, gold near another all time high. Is it? Kobayasi the Great puts up these amazing charts. Talked about a generational move in gold. I think it's up 50% over the last year. We're not here to tell you about the price or about to buy. What we're here to do is give you access so that you understand, I don't know, the correlation of forces that are driving gold. Everything from the deterioration of the purchasing power of the US Dollar. Why? Because of federal spending. Why we focus so much. We'll go back to the Budget Committee. We'll go between the East Room and the Budget Committee. The pageantry of the East Room as a head of state. Modi of India is here with President Trump. They're very close personally. They're also very close in political outlook. Both men fight for their country. So every now and again they, you know, they're at loggerheads, as you would anticipate, particularly among two countries that are as big a trading partner as the US Is with India. India is also a key strategic partner in the whole situation to take down the Chinese Communist Party. The strategic, our strategic drive to contain the Chinese Communist Party on certain aspects of the Eurasian landmass. Modi's a key ally there. They're going to oppress her in the East Room, the historic East Room. And you know both individuals. President Trump and Modi will make statements. Modi will talk to a translator for most of it, I imagine then President Trump normally opens up to questions and he likes those questions to be on the topic at hand, which is the head of state. But the media being the media, will always wander off it. Birchgold.com Bannon end of the dollar empire. Get smart. Understand the forces in back of what's driving gold higher. We're trying to learn you up here, trying to teach you to fish, not give you a fish dinner. And we give you access to the team over at Birchgold, Philip, Patrick and team, and they're the best. Birchgold.com Bannon also go to Bannon. Just take it into your phone. That's B A N N o N at 989-898 and get the free brochure where you can learn a lot. It's good. It's very succinct. It's called precious metals. Purchasing gold, investing in gold in the age of Trump. So go check it out today. We're still waiting on the and I think we're taking a break at the top of the hour. It looks like they run a few minutes late. What this means is that Modi and Trump are engaged in a longer conversation. I think that's appropriate. Modi came a long way to he came a long way to see President Trump. Remember, he came to the Howdy, Modi. I think it's still the biggest event President Trump's ever had outside some of these massive rallies, the 100,000 people rallies and some of the rallies in Pennsylvania, some of these incredible rallies. But for an indoor location, I think it was 57,000 people down in Houston and then President Trump. And this was in the beginning days of the pandemic. So it really didn't get the coverage that it should have gotten if President Trump went to India. And they absolutely love him. Absolutely love him. So there'll be more on that today. The budget committee is trying to get to I understand they're going to vote it out tonight. Hey, here's all I want to know. How many cuts and the same with Steve. They're dealing with the fiscal 2026 budget. Fine. Show me the trillion dollars in cuts. I don't want a 2 trillion dollar deficit. I want to see it cut in half. How'd you do it? What they're talking about the 1.5 trillion over 10 years. That's $150 billion a year. Now, I realize this may be taken differently, but it's $150 billion. It's not going to work. And to back it up, if you got the, if you got the CR on the 14th, we got to fund the government going forward. Or maybe not. But I don't see him shutting down President Trump's government in his first hundred days. It's. How can we possibly have a 2 trillion dollar deficit? Where are the doge cuts? We need them all. They've had enough time to identify at least the waste, fraud, abuse in these different organizations. It doesn't have to be perfect because they'll go through a lot more refinement even after approval. We have to know directionally where we are. And it galls me to working off Biden's number. I hope it galls the President. I think when the President's fully briefed and fully informed, it'll gall him. Big league. They go say, what the hell are we doing here with Biden's numbers? It's an interesting question. I think it's generally confusion and mayhem with Capitol Hill. But hey, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe, maybe there's some logic here, maybe they're making some progress on this. But until we see the math, and I mean hundreds of billions of dollars of cuts. Hundreds of billions of dollars of cuts. And stop whining about entitlement. Get into that discretionary spending, get into the Pentagon, get into Medicaid. Medicaid. You got to be careful because a lot of mag is on Medicaid. I'm telling you, if you don't think so, you are dead wrong. Medicaid is going to be a complicated one. Just can't take a meat X to it. Although I would love to. Okay, right, stuff takes us out. Brian Glenn's in the East Room. Modi and the President. United States are about to enter to take a short commercial break. We're going to return in the war room. Just a moment.
