Steve Bannon
Steve, your show.
Eric Bolling
Have a great show. Good to have you back. My friend. Eric, great to see you again, sir. We look forward to seeing you and doing the handoff tomorrow.
Mike Davis
Me too.
Eric Bolling
The great Eric Bolling getting a shout out by the president. I states Eric deserves it. Doing a great job there. Four o' clock. Great lead in for us. We've got a cold open. We're going to go ahead and play it. I got Mike Davis. Are we going to start on the floor of the House of in Texas, But Brian Harrison is going to join us about 5:30. I'm going to start with Mike Davis. There's a lot going on in Texas and there's a lot that stinks to high heaven in Texas. We're going to try to get to at least start to get to the bottom of it today. In the first hour. Let's do the cold open and then we'll get the viceroy. Mike Davis will join us.
Stephen Miller
What do I think?
Eric Bolling
What do you think of this again? We're not a market watch show. It's not about whether the market goes up or down. We are trying to keep our eye on what America is telling the world. And chaos, no matter who's telling the.
Mike Davis
Story, is clearly the message Donald Trump is sending the world.
Stephen Miller
No doubt about it. What he's sending the business community is uncertainty. And if there's one thing the business community can't deal with, it's uncertainty. They won't invest, they won't grow, they become paralyzed. And you saw the pictures of ports. The, the supply chain is going to end up having impacts on shelves. There's no doubt about that. And what items aren't going to be on them. Shell on those shelves is going to be be interesting to see probably all the items that this gentleman talked about that's with the Port Authority. But, but in the end what this is going to do and what it's doing is it's going to have pretty negative impacts on our economy. And nobody wants to see a recession. Nobody wants to see a depression and you certainly don't want to see it if it's self inflicted. And I've seen a lot of self inflicted problems that have arisen over the last four months escape with some issues like the price of grain right now, soybeans, it looks like a roller coaster ride on those markets. But we talk about imports, what about the exports? You know, because of a lot of our export markets are being filled by other countries and that is not good for agriculture or processing or any of those kind of things. So the uncertainty that this is created in the marketplace is going to have long term impacts. And the fact that it was dropped from 100, the taxes were dropped from 145 to 30, sure, it's a good sign, like I say, a self inflicted sign that was solved by the person who created it. But in the end, there's got to be long term certainty here or our economy is still going to be very, very fragile.
Lisa Rubin
Let me put it this way. Nations depend on rules, fair rules. Sometimes they're written down, often they're not. But either way, they give shape to our values, guide us towards our rights, of course, but also our responsibilities, the obligations we owe to each other. Now in a diverse nation like ours, and I celebrate that these rules become even more important. Without them, we risk becoming an island of strangers, not a nation that walks forward together. So when you have an immigration system that seems almost designed to permit abuse, that encourages some businesses to bring in lower paid workers rather than invest in our young people, or simply one that is sold by politicians to the British people on an entirely false premise, then you're not championing growth, you're not championing justice, or however else people defend the status quo. You're actually contributing to the forces that are slowly pulling our country apart. So, yes, I believe in this. I believe we need to reduce immigration significantly.
Mike Davis
Well, the Constitution is clear and that, of course, is the supreme law of the land, that the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus can be suspended in a time of invasion. So I would say that's an option we're actively looking at. Look, a lot of it depends on whether the courts do the right thing or not.
Eric Bolling
Wow. That was White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller suggesting that the administration.
Mike Davis
Would suspend habeas corpus if it disagrees.
Eric Bolling
With how the courts are ruling on immigration cases, arguing the president alone has the authority to revoke this country's bedrock legal right. So can he. Joining us now, I miss NBC legal correspondent Lisa Rubin and NBC News justice and intelligence correspondent Kendallane and also Eli Sokols, who's still with us. Lisa, first off, to find habeas corpus. Habeas corpus is a form of asking for relief from a court where you're essentially asking for a release of a body. Conventionally speaking, it just means that you're asking to be released from custody. This is something that all sorts of.
Mike Davis
People who've been caught up in immigration.
Lisa Rubin
Proceedings have been asking for lately.
Mike Davis
Usually you see it in the context.
Eric Bolling
Of a prisoner who believes that they've been wrongly convicted. After their conviction, they can ask for habeas relief, but lately we've been seeing.
Mike Davis
It in cases like the Alien Enemies.
Eric Bolling
Act cases President Donald Trump fired the Director of the U.S. copyright Office, Shira Perlmutter. Perlmutter was appointed by the former Librarian of Congress, carla Hayden, in 2020.
Lisa Rubin
Hayden was also fired just days prior.
Eric Bolling
Like Hayden, Perlmutter was also notified via email.
Lisa Rubin
The director of the copyright office oversees.
Eric Bolling
Six directories and 450 staff at the agency. Representative Joe Morelli, the ranking member of.
Lisa Rubin
The House Administration Committee, blamed Perlmutter's firing.
Eric Bolling
On her recent report on using copyrighted.
Lisa Rubin
Material to train artificial intelligence systems. According to Perlmutter, such a practice would.
Eric Bolling
Undermine rather than further the constitutional goals of copyright. Morelli said of Donald Trump's firing, quote, it is surely no coincidence he acted.
Lisa Rubin
Less than a day after she refused to rubber stamp Elon Musk's efforts to mine troves of copyrighted works to train AI models.
Eric Bolling
The union behind Canadian and American musicians.
Lisa Rubin
Also issued a statement lamenting Perlmutter's firing. The union says she she understood what.
Eric Bolling
We all know to be true. Human creativity and authorship are the foundation of copyright law and for that it appears she lost her job. 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. 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.
Mike Davis
And where do people like that go.
Eric Bolling
To share the big lie?
Mike Davis
MAGA Media I wish in my soul.
Eric Bolling
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. Ban. It's Monday the 12th of May in the year of alert 2025. Thank you for joining us for the late afternoon early evening edition of the War Room on this, a very historic day starting in Geneva three in the morning Eastern Daylight Time with a press conference by the Secretary treasury and the Ambassador. Our trade Republic, Jameson Greer, you should understand, was Lighthizer's wingman, his deputy in the first term and was there every day for the two year negotiation with the Chinese Communist Party that ended up in that magnificent deal that President Trump, Peter Navarro, Lighthizer Jamison and others worked on that the Chinese Communist Party ripped up and spit in our face on just to make sure that we put a peg in that. And let's remember who we're dealing with historic in the, in the Oval Office day. I'm going to have a little package on that later. Bobby Kennedy speaking truth to power about who really owns this town and the courage of President Trump to do this. Brian Harrison, a great warrior and a, I don't know if an acolyte of the Viceroy, but clearly a buddy of the Viceroy. Two fighters. Brian Harrison is going to join us at the bottom of the hour from the Texas State House. There's something down in Texas. I was reading his Twitter feed today. There's something definitely not right down in Texas. And we're going to start trying to get to the bottom of it with a real warrior, Brian Harrison. I want to start with the Viceroy, Mike. Of everything going on and there's so much right. You know, we're hurtling towards a constitutional crisis. He's cutting trade deals, peace deals, drug deals, everything, this, this. And people, all of a sudden you don't understand. Maybe the Library of Congress, she looks a little woke. She's gone. Then you get the head of the copyright and then you start hearing, hey, the tech bros have been all over this and there's a reason. Explain to me why that last clip on the. By the way, we play the first part of those clips just to make sure everybody, it's a wake up call in the afternoon. We want to get your blood pressure up. We want to get you angry. We're showing you what the, what, what the Democrats are saying. Just a complete total nonsense. But the last clip was actually very, very important. What in the hell is going on with this copyright. Copyright protection and the head of copyright got turfed out, sir.
Lisa Rubin
So we've been fighting these trillion dollar big tech monopolists, Google, Amazon, Facebook and Apple for five years at the Article 3 project and our sister organization, the Internet Accountability Project. And we have been very successful in changing the politics, particularly on the right, on ending the big tech antitrust amnesty that they've enjoyed for too long. And we have Andrew Ferguson as the FTC chairman. We have Gail Slater leading the antitrust division. We have two very good antitrust law enforcement forcers in the Trump administration. And now where big tech is pivoting is on artificial intelligence. What they want to do is they want to take every copyrighted work in the world and put it into their AI machines. And they want their, they call it to teach the AI machines. But let me just give you an example of what this means. And they want to do this without compensation. They just want to take all this copyrighted material, put it into the AI machines. They want to call it fair use under the Copyright act, which means theft, essentially. And they want to do this under the guise of trying to compete against China, apparently. They want to steal like China so they can compete against China. They want to have slave labor like China so they can compete against China. That's not how it works in America. But let me give you an example. If I went onto this AI machine and said, give me a summary of every Bannon War Room hits by the Viceroy Mike Davis over the last six months, what this AI machine would do is go take all this content from the war room. It would summarize Steve and my discussions over the last six months. And then you have a very good idea of what we discussed. And you don't have to go click on the link for the Bannon War Room. You don't. That means that Band's war room has all their content used by Meta or whoever the AI company is, Google. And then the war room doesn't get paid for the clicks. The War Room doesn't get paid for the advertisement. So what it will do is this will destroy conservative media. Liberal media will always be good because you're always going to have China, you're always going to have Soros propping up liberal media. Conservative media has to make money the old fashioned way. They have to do it through people clicking on their content and advertising, Right? And if you don't have people clicking on conservative ad, conservative content and getting the advertising, it's going to destroy conservative media. Big Tech tried to do this. They tried to go to the Justice Department and get the Justice Department to say that stealing content for these AI machines is fair use. We shut that down. They tried to take over the Copyright Office, right? That's the Copyright Office at the Library of Congress and has every copyrighted material in the world, right? And so now they want to take over the Copyright Office and put in one of their big tech shills to run the copyright office. One of their big tech tech shills to, to be the Librarian of Congress and then have the copyright director take over that. I think we're shutting that down now. Their next move is they've gone to Congress and essentially they want to give these AI companies 10 years of amnesty from, from states where the states cannot regulate them. The states can't bring any actions against them, similar to what Big Tech did on section 230 immunity. So you have section 230 immunity. Where they are, they can't be sued for the content that they put online, but they can profit off of it and then they have antitrust amnesty. These trillion dollar big tech companies are going to do whatever they can to steal as much content as they can from creators and then they're going to try to get as much amnesty as they can out of the Justice Department, out of Congress, out of states, out of, out of the Copyright Office, out of whatever. And that's where this is so important that we're calling this out. Because obviously President Trump does not want to kill every conservative media outlets in America by having copyright.
Eric Bolling
It's also the other copyright. We're going to talk about this. This is, these guys are rapacious. They're rapacious the people. It really hurts too is those of us who have not put up paywalls that have everything out for free. And we have sponsors, we have advertisers, but it's kind of on a click basis. So we don't charge. Nobody's charge. You come to the word or all the times it's put up and it's on a click. And so it's many people like us that do it like that. They have not put up paywalls. But it's not just conservative media. I mean this is deeper and darker than that. This is what they've been trying to do it. And this is why I called for a total audit of everything Doge has done. I still haven't seen the numbers on the cost side. I've seen some stuff kicking around and there is a couple hundred million dollars here and Johnson says he's not going to support it. We're going to unpack this entire mess. Also we're going to go to the Lone Star State, the railhead of the MAGA movement, folks. Think you have a problem in Georgia. Think you have a problem in North Carolina. Thinking you have a problem in South Carolina or Colorado. This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro. The bloc of emerging superpowers including China, Russia, India and Persia are meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency. They're calling this the Rio Reset. As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for US Dollars will decrease, bringing down the value of the dollar in and your savings. While this transition won't not happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio. The Rio reset in July marks a pivotal moment when BRICS objectives move decisively from a theoretical possibility towards inevitable reality.

You know you had John Tester, the guy that was blown out in, in Montana as a total complete goofball. When they finally got somebody could run against him, blew him out and he's up there yammering. Yeah, it's so unstable. Markets back up. I think we're back up to the middle April high, remember mid April, it's going to be the worst since the Great Depression. Worst April. You don't hear them yammering about that anymore. They got come up with something to yammer about. There's never a real program that comes forward and say here's we're going to do as an alternative. They don't have any economic populism, no nationalist economics, nothing. They got nothing. I'm not saying that Robert Reich has got a great piece up in the Guardian and maybe I'll have time to talk about it tomorrow. He, he says hey, they got to come up with the left wing populism on the economic side or they got nothing. It's a credential class. This is part of the I was telling the Financial Times crowd on Saturday night they got nothing right now. Here's what they got. The courts and Viceroy's here to break it down. I want to go back over this because the big input for artificial intelligence and this is how these guys operate. This is why you got the H1B visa problem. These guys in the age of the algorithm, what they're trying to do is take the human cost out of everything. They're trying to get slave labor from over in Asia to come here as indentured servants and work for 50% less. And that's why you have no Americans. These jobs. I challenged the FT audience on Saturday at the Kennedy Center. Show me And I've challenged tech. Show me one billet where there's one person that has a better, better education or in or experience than you could find an American. They can't do it because it's not about that. That's a lie. A bald faced lie. What it's about is hiring people at 50 cents on the dollar and then make them live, tend to a condo in Silicon valley and work 20 hours a day, seven days a week. Is that what America's about? That's indentured servitude? I thought we kind of worked through that in the 19th century. Why is it back in the 21st? Because these oligarchs are the worst people on earth and they're created by the Democratic party. And that's why you any antitrust. This is why they didn't have Lina Khan's back. They had some great people over there. They were prepared to go off these oligarchs but the people who created them, the billionaires on Wall street, all Democrats or a lot of Democrats wouldn't let it happen. And you got Tesser up there yammering on birchgold.com Gold down today. But hey, it ain't the price, it's the process. We're going to go through times of turbulence. We're heading to Rio for the Rio reset. Make sure you understand it all. Birchgold.com Bannon End of the Dollar Empire we worked on this for four years. We ain't Johnny come lately to this folks. This is now taught in undergraduate level because it's accessible quite complicated topics but we make it accessible to folks just like you Take the challenge today. It's totally free then to talk to Philip Patrick and the team over there. These guys always want a free ride. They want to free ride on labor, but particularly in AI. The two things that drive this folks and you're going to be on the hook for both of them is information, intellectual property, information and energy. Have you noticed that you don't hear so much about the green new dealing board? You notice you haven't. The cult of climate change is not on the front every night on msnbc. That's because all Silicon Valley is all about AI. You got to power up. And when you power up off of what they've left this grid on, it gonna be ugly unless you put a bunch of money into it. And guess who they're looking at with their hands out for the money. That would be you, the taxpayer at the federal and the state level. Oh yeah. These guys want nothing but free ride. They Want to socialize the costs and keep the upside. It's not a bad business model, but we're gonna strip it away. Mike, this is very sophisticated. Here's the thing you should understand. They had a. Just like Zuckerberg had a full on assault with the lobbyists and lawyers and everybody bugging President Trump, like President Trump trying to save the world. He's got to take this pimp's calls and have him going in there and crawling around on his belly in the Oval Office leaving a trail that he doesn't want to go to trial. The pressure to keep, to keep Zuckerberg out of court was huge. These guys put a full on assault at Main Justice. They took their shot, right? They're kind of legitimate shot. And it got rejected. Did it not? Did it not? Mike Davis.
Lisa Rubin
It did. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanch, who is great on these tech issues, shut that down. Fortunately, President Trump made Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche the acting Librarian of Congress, along with one of his deputies, Paul Perkins, as the acting head of the Copyright Office. These are two of my friends and these are two people who understand that we're not going to let every copyrighted work in America, every creator's hard earned work get stolen by the tech Bros. So they can make billions of dollars off of other people's work.
Eric Bolling
And this is just not the conservatives. I mean this is copyrighted material that creative people make and it's their thing. It's like the time when I talk about home title, I get, it's equivalent to the title. The, the little thing you got, the title to your home that shows that you own that real asset called your home. The copyright is to show that, hey, this is their, this is their ownership of something they created themselves. And then you could take distribution rights and sma. For years I was in the movie business financing this stuff. The copyright of a film. This is why Turner Classic Movies has all the great, you know, old films is that they've, they've bought these libraries, they partner with people. The copyright protection is what gives artists the ability actually to make a living and get cash. The tech Bros don't care about that. They just want to go in there like barbarians and just get it for free. Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme. All these guys are about gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme. Right? That's all they want. They want it for free. And thank God, Todd Blanchard there. Yes, sir.
Lisa Rubin
I would say this. They, they say we need to let these AI companies steal everyone's Copyright to compete against China. Okay, let's, let's talk about movies. You brought that up, Steve. How many people enjoy going to Chinese produced movies because they're so creative in China that, you know, there's such a draw to go to Chinese movies? Of course there's not. They steal American movies, they steal American content, they steal American everything. And if you make it easy for these AI companies to rip off everyone's copyrights, you're going to make it where we have no more creative content in America. Why the hell what people put in their blood, sweat and tears to create creative content so Mark Zuckerberg can steal their content and make billions of more dollars.
Eric Bolling
By the way, as you can tell, because Mike Davis is from the great heartland of this country, Iowa boy that now hangs out in Colorado most of the time. Maybe not as the cutting edge of culture. There are actually some magnificent Chinese movies, particularly the Chinese, some of the martial arts movies, but not the depth that the dead America has. The film libraries of Turner, of Warner Brothers and Paramount. And all these is what they're trying to steal. Plus all the tv, everything, everything is created, novels, all of it. They want it for free. That's the audacity. Let's pull the camera back, Mike. We got Google kind of where we want them in Northern Virginia federal court and D.C. federal court. You got Apple getting fined, you got Facebook. We're trying to break up Facebook. Gail Slater, Omid over at Main Justice. Incredible. Davis over at fcc. The great Andrew Ferguson in the lineage of Lina Khan at the ftc, which they tried to shut down. And because of Mike Davis in Article 3, we stopped that. The big tech bros are taking it on the chin. This why I'm so proud of Trump. The pressure he gets from that crowd and the pressure he gets from big pharma. And he kind of goes, I don't know, man, the people that put me here, I don't know, I can kind of hear him. I don't think they want to do it. What are we supposed to do? This audience who gets revved up in this? What do we need to do to kind of shut down the tech bros?
Lisa Rubin
Well, I think that this American movie mogul Steve Bannon has them scared because, you know, we're up against Mark Zuckerberg and Google and it sounds like he's a Chinese movie baron as well too. If he's criticizing me about, about culture. But I would say this.
Eric Bolling
Just make an observation.
Lisa Rubin
Exactly. The tech bros have the money. They can, they can pay the lobbyists, they can pay the lawyers, they can pay the campaign donations and they're going to get these politicians attention every time. The counterweight to that, the superpower that the War Room Posse has is we have a massive amount of followers and viewers with the War Room Posse teaming up with the Article 3 project. And Steve, you have the most engaged, smartest audience in the conservative ecosphere. And so that's what these politicians fear. They fear that crazy Mike Davis is going to go on your show and raise these issues and light up these politicians and these policymakers. And so that is our superpower to keep big tech in check.
Eric Bolling
And this is why it was so important in the confirmations. Guys like Todd Blanch, who's been spectacular. I mean, this is the team Boris put together. Remember the dark days of 21 and 22, when no law firms, all those big shot law firms that are now bending the knee, wouldn't work for President Trump. It wouldn't defend him against these outrageous charges. That's where the Emil Boveys and the Todd Blanches and a great team, and it's a great team over at Maine justice has come up. Mike, I know you got a bolt, but I do want to hold you through the commercial break. And your brother, your, your buddy Brian Harrison, who is kind of an acolyte, those two know each other. It's scary. It's a scary thought. Harrison's going to be on because of what's going on in Texas. But I do, when we come back, I want a quick update on what we're doing because over the weekend after we had you on late in the week and talked to you on Saturday, the I got tremendous from all over the world wanting to know about this constitutional crisis we're hurtling towards that's got to get somehow rectified by the end of June because it can just not, it cannot just, you know, simmer over the summer before the Supreme Court leaves. There's got to be some adjudication of this. There has to be somebody step up and say what's going on. So Mike Davis is going to stick for a few more minutes. We're going to take short commercial break. We're going to go down to Texas. The great Brian Harrison is going to join us. Also, we've got Terry Schilling. I'm trying to get EJ And Tony. EJ and Tony's on fire. Up on Twitter today about the the debt numbers are out $101 billion, folks, of interest payments only of the federal government in the month of April. Let me repeat that $101 billion. Didn't go to schools, didn't go to education facilities, didn't go to hospitals, didn't go to fire stations, didn't go to roads, didn't go to help the community, didn't go to food programs. It went to pay bondholders. Why? Because we are drowning in federal debt as we've talked about. Hopefully EJ and Tony in the second hour. Birchgold.com One of the reasons is because we're the prime reserve currency. We can do it. Understand what that means. Right now, take your phone out, text Bannon B A N N O N. That would be me at 989-898 get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and silver in the Era of Trump. Let's change that. Let's make it the Age of Trump. That's what I told the FT craft. I had a couple of hecklers in the back kind of laughing. Oh, that's not true. Not true. Suck on this. It is true. Go to Birch Gold today for the Age of Trump. Short Commercial break the Viceroy on the other side, there's something happening with our farmland here in the United States that isn't getting enough attention. The Chinese have been buying up hundreds of thousands of acres of U.S. farmland. They're also taking control over critical supply chains, things like fertilizer, animal feed and farming equipment. Why? It's not clear. They're tightening their grip on global food production. That is clear. And if things go south and it could happen quickly, we need to be ready. That's why I trust my Patriot supply. They're America's largest emergency preparedness company. And right now, when you get there, four week emergency food supply, you'll get a free 4,24 7 food kits, an extra 12 days of food absolutely free. Okay, full stop. You're gonna have to insert this. Okay. And right now, when you get their four week emergency food supply, you'll get four free 72 hour food kits, an extra 12 days of food absolutely free. Let me repeat that. You're gonna get four free 72 hour food kits. That's an extra 12 days of food and it's absolutely free. That's four weeks of delicious meals that last up to 25 years, delivering 2,000 plus calories per day. It shipped fast and it's shipped free. We can't control what the Chinese Communist Party does. You can't control what China does. But we can control how prepared we are. Go to my patriotsupply.com today to claim your 12 days of free food. Shop my patriotsupply.com my patriotsupply.com do it today. Do not let this thing get ahead of you. Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban the Viceroy. Mike, people really responded to your, hey, you know about habeas corpus and something's going to happen before they leave for the summer. Any update on that, of what happened on the weekend? Well, we left you the radical Judge Clinton appointee in San Francisco. Nobody ever heard of shutting down President Trump's Article 2 powers on basically not funding things and letting people go. So where do we stand?
Lisa Rubin
Sir, I would say this to the chief Justice. You have let these Democrat activist judges sabotage American vote voters. They are election deniers by sabotaging the President of the United States exercising his Core Article 2 powers. And if you refuse to get your judicial house in order because you're scared of bad press in the Washington Post and the New York Times, Congress is going to get your judicial house in order for you. And it's going to be through oversight, it's going to be through funding cuts, it's going to be through jurisdiction, jurisdiction stripping. It could be through impeachment. But frankly, the simpler approach as Speaker Newt Gingrich has been talking about is just eliminating a judge's seat. So if the chief justice is not going to step up and get his judicial house in order, we're not going to let, as American voters, we're not going to let these activist judges sabotage our will and sabotage the President of the United States.
Eric Bolling
And you still see your date is still before they leave on the last day of June to go for their three month summer break. They don't come back, I think to the first Monday in August. Your belief is it will somehow will have some sort of lease attempt at a rectification of this?
Lisa Rubin
Sir, look, illegal aliens do not have constitutional due process rights related to remaining in this country. And the only, the only time they get due process rights is when Congress provides those due process rights as it relates to remaining in this country. If these six, I guess if these seven generals on the Supreme Court, Commanding General John Roberts and his six lieutenant generals think that they're just going to create constitutional due process rights for these illegal aliens, including Trende Aragua terrorists, where the president can't get these people the hell out of our country, that the Supreme Court is going to lose its legitimacy with the American people, when that happens, it loses everything. So this is a dire warning to the chief Justice. Proceed with caution.
Eric Bolling
Mike, where did they go for Article 3 and particularly what do you got for us on this Copyright thing. Have you guys figured something out? Are you working on it? I want everybody to go to Article 3. But what's, what's the call to action today?
Lisa Rubin
I think that the call to action, we've been pretty successful. So it's article3project.org article number three, Project Dawg. You can follow us on social media, you can donate, but only what you can afford and take action. Action, action, action. The two biggest action items right now are to move forward with getting rid of Judge Boasberg who sabotaged the president, and to cut $2 billion in the federal judiciary's funding. And I'm very happy you're having my friends Brian Harrison up next. This guy is a true warrior down in Texas who's fighting the uniparty establishment in Texas.
Eric Bolling
How do you know, by the way? The stamp of approval for fighting spirit. Maybe not for cultural as we just saw about Chinese movies, but for fighting spirit. The stamp of approval is no, there's no higher stamp than the viceroy. How do you happen to know Brian Harrison looks like the all American boy, right? Kind of looks like Spieth the golfer, right? How does a brawler like you know Brian Harrison?
Lisa Rubin
Well, this is probably going to be the kiss of death for Brian Harrison's political career, but I know Brian Harrison going back to our George W. Bush White house days almost 20 years ago. He was a bit of a country club Republican back then, but now he's a full MAGA warrior. He's a savage down in the Texas house. He worked in the Trump Department of Health and Human Services as the chief of staff. This guy is the real deal. His days working for Dick Cheney are over. And he is a full MAGA warrior.
Eric Bolling
No, he's a fire breathing agrarian populace down there in Texas. Mike Davis, we love you brother. Look forward to seeing you in the next couple of days.
Lisa Rubin
Thank you.
Eric Bolling
Not letting the tech bros steal the copyright of everybody, particularly the war room. Not that we have a dog in this fight, but it just ticks us off that even the concept of it. Brian Harrison, we met you when we were down with Glenn Story and the team. You guys came on that day. You know, it was post impeachment of General Paxton. This audience has been very engaged. What's happening in Texas? We have a massive audience in Texas and I've been hearing, I've been telling the audience every day, hey, we're gonna get to the bottom of this. There's something going in the house. But your Twitter feed today, brother, blew my. And all the top news people should know we wanted to start with Brian to kick the show off. That's how big important it was in the afternoon. Your Twitter feed has my head imploding. What is going on in Texas? Have we turned over after? Texas is the railhead of MAGA. Trump won by 14 points that Ted Cruz won by nine. Right. The people have put their shoulder to the wheel down there. These the hardest working from Tarrant county to Denton, all over the state. What has gone on in the last couple of days in the Texas, Texas legislature, sir?
Mike Davis
Well, let me make this as painful as it is, let me make this as simple as possible. Texas voters support President Trump. Texas voters are maga. The Texas government is not. And while Trump, you know, won by 14 points here in the state of Texas, the Harris Biden agenda unfortunately is alive and well in the Texas House. Because even though voters gave us an 88, we had 88 Republicans in the Texas House, a massive majority, the radical Democrats were able to actually select our fake Republican sellout leadership team and pursue big government socialism. So while President Trump's doge is is cutting government, slashing dei, reduced, cutting agencies, firing bureaucrats, the Texas House is doing the exact opposite of all those. We're increasing spending, we're growing government. We've created more agencies and bureaucracies just in the last week than I can even keep track of. We're increasing funding for dei, we're increasing funding for transgender ideology in our public universities. We're increasing funding for corporate welfare. We got a proposal on the table right now to spend $2.5 billion to liberal Hollywood. And in the Texas House just today, when we're four days away from the deadline to pass House bills for the entire session. What does our fake Republican speaker do? He clogs up our whole calendar with 142 Democrat bills put on the floor just today and then put another two or three hundred Republican bills and all the big Republicans priorities are after that. So Texans are being taxed out of their homes to pay for the Biden Harris agenda down in the state of Texas. It's an absolute outrage. I would argue it's the biggest form of voter fraud because what's the point of election integrity? And I'm so grateful President Trump got involved and Ted Cruz and Ken Paxton and you and the posse was involved to help us flip so many seats down here to Republicans in the House. But what's the point of election integrity? What's the point of voting for Republicans if elected Republicans, once they get in office, are just going to turn around and hand the progressive leftists, all of the power. So it's one of the biggest outrage. I think it might be one of the most underrated political scandals in all of America because people don't talk about Texas being a battleground state. But Steve, I know you know this. Texas is the crown jewel of the left's plan to take over America. And I've had it and I'm doing everything I can to fight back against this.
Eric Bolling
So, Brian, this is what stuns people. They put 350, $400 million in to do this, to get it purple. This is why the grassroots responded, went door to door, did precinct strategies. They have responded to every call to action and they won. Not big blowout. Okay. Even sources. How did they. It's, it's almost inconceivable. And as bad as it was when we were down there, last time I heard about it, it's like building to a crescendo with what? Every policy that we're killing in Congress, right, that President Trump's doing executive orders, they're actually now doubling and tripling down on those policies in the state of Texas. How is this happening?
Mike Davis
It's like the anti Trump agenda is what's happening in the Texas House down here. I mean, just, just a couple quick points on that. I mean, we've got, as I said, the Democrat caucus elected our speaker, even though we've got a massive majority coming out of the last primaries. Let me tell you who the most powerful person is in the Texas House. He's our chief parliamentarian. Well, who is that? He's a Democrat Party activist and get this, a former Barack Obama White House lawyer. So we have an Obama staffer controlling the floor. In the Texas House, Democrats were made co chairs of every single one of our committees. We've got a BLM activist, anti second Amendment, open borders Democrat is the speaker pro tem. And I'm telling you, just in the last week or two, I bet we have passed over 200 bills. And while Democrats are empowered, conservatives are silenced down here. I am routinely, they will routinely cut off my microphone when I go and speak against liberal bills that grow government or that challenge what President Trump is trying to do in Washington D.C. and they get away with this with impunity because they believe, and it's been true for too long. People haven't known this is what's happening. And I always say this transparency is like kryptonite in the swamp. But we don't just have the swamp in D.C. we've got 50 state level swamps and the biggest state level swamp in the country unfortunately is down here in Texas where the liberal uniparty controls the thing. And it's about its past damn time that we start treating Texas taxpayers with the respect for they deserve. This whole session has been one giant middle finger to the taxpayers of the state of Texas who have been forced to be. They're being taxed out of their homes. And to fund a radical leftist agenda, the exact same leftist agenda that President Trump is fighting in D.C. we are doubling down on here in Texas.
Eric Bolling
I think Texas right now the projected is going to be is something like the fifth or six. I think California's fourth now right in back of China, the United States, Germany, I think Japan's. California is right up there fourth or fifth. I think Texas the sixth, seventh, eighth largest economy in the world.
Mike Davis
Yeah, we're the seventh. We're the seventh, seventh or the eighth, depending how you can it. So it's basically the economy of France or Germany and we have the Biden Harris team in control of at least half, at least half of our legislature down here.
Eric Bolling
For first off, what your, what is your guy's strategy and how can the war room posse help here? Because people's heads, I can tell in the chat room they're blowing up, sir, as they should.
Mike Davis
Yeah, well, the biggest thing that we can do right now is expose the corruption and that's what I'm spending all. They've already told me they're going to kill all my bills because I've refused to bend the knee to the corrupt, failed rhino leadership. That's America last. It's Texas last. And so every single day, multiple times a day, I do what none of the mainstream media in Texas will do and I go directly to the voters and I tell them the truth on my X feed, which is ryaneharrison. So if they just want to go ryaneharrison, I will literally post from the floor. Our speaker tried to gavel in just two days ago unconstitutionally. He declared there was a quorum when there weren't 30 people or he was just about to. On the floor of the House, you got to have 100 to conduct business. And after they screamed about that so that we were all. I was slowing things up. No, no, no. They brought in a mariachi band and I am not making this up, Steve. They put on the floor of the House a new bill to create a Mexican guest worker program that was put on the House floor in the last two days. Just as President Trump is trying to undo the invasion, the 9, 10, 11 million illegal aliens that Joe Biden imported. Trump's trying to deport these illeg legal aliens. The Texas House is trying to create a Mexican guest worker program as we speak. Texans have been betrayed. Texas voters deserve better. And quite frankly, I firmly believe as goes Texas, so goes the nation. So I don't care what state you live in, you need to care about Texas staying. We should be the number one state in America for liberty, for freedom, for private property rights, for secure borders, for limited government. And we have a reputation for that. But Steve, here's the reality. For far too long, the uni party government in the state of Texas has been just coasting on that reputation. And you mentioned a couple other states. Steve, let me tell you something on occupation. People think Texas is low tax, low regulations. We've got one of the highest property tax burdens in all of the country. We have the number one highest regulatory burden to work in the state of Texas. We have more occupational licensing regulations than any every state in America. And yes, that includes California and that includes New York. Texas has been just coasting on our small government reputation and it's past time we start living up to it. I want Texas to be the number one state in America for freedom and liberty.
Eric Bolling
Bryant, real quickly, the Twitter feed, where do people go? Because we're going to pile people in there to start watching this.
Mike Davis
At Brian E. Harrison. At Brian E. Harrison on X. Like it? Share it. Tell your friends because I'm doing more on that X feed, Ryan E. Harrison than the entire Texas media has done in the last decade. And Steve, I'm telling you, I can feel it out there. Texas voters eyes are being opened like never before. Not to the Democrats. And I'm so sick and tired of the uni party establishment Republican blaming the Democrats for every big government socialist bill that passes or blaming Democrats for killing conservative Republican legislations. There's not enough Democrats in Austin to pass a birthday resolution unless Republicans help them. Every conservative bill that dies dies because elected Republicans.
Eric Bolling
And the unipart health isn't just a personal issue. It's a family issue, a community issue. We're living in unpredictable times. Supply chains can break down, hospitals can get overwhelmed.

Lisa Rubin
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
Eric Bolling
I want to make sure before you take off, go back to his last point and thanks for hanging around. I know you get to jump on the floor for a vote. BRIAN harrison, we can't blame this on Democrats. This is about Republicans and this about a grassroots effort down it that stood up and put Trump on their shoulders and took Trump across the goal line at a 14 point win and won all these houses, won a majority. They did what they were supposed to do. How is it, is this the Bush junta? Is this the, is this the Karl Rove crowd? Is he the same people impeach Paxton?
Mike Davis
Well, yeah. Let me tell you what I think, something your viewers are going to know just instinctively, but you can't say it enough. As you mentioned, I worked or actually it was my buddy Mike Davis that mentioned it. And I was, I was the chief of staff for President Trump at the biggest cabinet agency during his first term, hhs. And you know this, Steve. Your viewers know this. There's this coalition in the swamp of D.C. that fought us tooth and nail and everything we were doing. They're fighting President Trump again right now. It's three parts of this coalition. It's the liberal Democrats, it's their mouthpieces in the mainstream media. And then the third, which is probably the most pernicious and the worst of them all, weak, feckless, spineless, liberal establishment Republicans. And that is the exact same coalition that has taken over the uniparty swamp in the state of Texas. And here's just the reality. The voters of Texas, they did their job. If you're in the state of Texas and you're a Republican voter, I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for re electing President Trump and Ted Cruz and, and giving us big majorities in the legislature. But let me also apologize to you because here's the reality. For too many years, these elected Republicans in the State legislature that promised, they said, they came to you at election time in March and they said, vote for me, I'll stand up to the Democrats. Vote for me, I will push back against the liberals that want to bankrupt our state and our country. But then the second they get elected to office, they vote to put those very Democrats in charge and they collude with them to destroy liberty for the next generation of Texans and the next generations of Americans. So it is past time that the Texas government stop putting the liberal special interests first, stop abusing the taxpayers of the state of Texas who they're taxing literally out of their homes to fund a liberal Marxist big government agenda. And we start putting the taxpayers of the state of Texas first. We, we remember that the goal of government is to protect our God given rights, our freedoms and our liberties. We should make Texas the number one state in America for liberty. Texas should be the boldest state, locking arms with President Trump and his agenda to protect the next generation, to shrink government, to maximize freedom. Because as government grows, liberty shrinks. And the voters of the state of Texas, the taxpayers of the state of Texas, they deserve better than the failed uniparty leadership that's coming out of the Austin swamp. And I think voters are seeing this like never before. And so, Steve, I'm so grateful to you, to the war room posse, for everybody else who is starting to shine a light on what I think is the biggest example of voter fraud in perhaps all of the country, which is Republicans were given massive majorities and a mandate to govern, not just with President Trump, but all at every level of the state of Texas. But Republicans in Austin have handed the keys to the castle to Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden's team. We're growing government. And even when we do Republican things like Steve Bannon, you know how important school choice is to President Trump, and he was so involved in our primaries for that reason. Well, we finally passed school choice. But guess what? Here's the reality, what they're not going to tell you. The school choice program we just passed, that everyone's calling universal, it's not going to apply to 99% of Texas families. So even when we do big Republican bills, they're gutted, they're watered down, and it's past time we start being bold. We start leading again. When's the last time you heard about Texas leading on just about anything? I think Texas should be leading the nation in every dimension of freedom, in every dimension of liberty. We haven't been doing that. And I'm Grateful for you and the posse for. For joining us down here in the trenches that the small number of us that want to retake the state of Texas for bold conservative Republican principles.
Eric Bolling

Podcast Summary: Bannon’s War Room - Episode 4480: Texas House Betrays Its Constituents
Release Date: May 13, 2025
In Episode 4480 of Bannon’s War Room, host Eric Bolling delves deep into the political turmoil unfolding within the Texas House of Representatives. The episode, titled "Texas House Betrays Its Constituents," scrutinizes the actions of Republican legislators who, despite holding significant majorities, are enacting policies contrary to the wishes of their MAGA-supporting voters. The discussion highlights the broader implications of such political maneuvers on national stability and conservative media integrity.
The episode opens with a conversation between Eric Bolling and Mike Davis, focusing on the economic implications of President Donald Trump's policies. Stephen Miller, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, contributes insights on how Trump's messaging is sowing uncertainty within the business community, adversely affecting investment and economic growth.
Stephen Miller [01:03]: "What he's sending the business community is uncertainty. And if there's one thing the business community can't deal with, it's uncertainty."
Miller emphasizes the precarious state of the economy, citing disruptions in supply chains and volatile commodity prices. He warns of potential long-term fragility unless consistent policies are implemented to restore business confidence.
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to the controversial suggestion by Stephen Miller to suspend the writ of habeas corpus in response to immigration challenges. Eric Bolling introduces Lisa Rubin, NBC News's legal correspondent, to unpack the complexities surrounding this issue.
Stephen Miller [04:42]: "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus can be suspended in a time of invasion."
Lisa Rubin clarifies the traditional role of habeas corpus and critiques the administration's stance on immigration enforcement, highlighting the potential erosion of constitutional rights.
Lisa Rubin [05:07]: "Habeas corpus is a form of asking for relief from a court where you're essentially asking for a release from custody."
The discussion evolves into the firing of Shira Perlmutter, Director of the U.S. Copyright Office, by President Trump, underscoring tensions between the administration and legislative bodies over intellectual property rights and AI training.
Lisa Rubin further elaborates on the conflicts between big tech companies and content creators. She criticizes AI firms for utilizing copyrighted material without compensation, labeling it as theft disguised under "fair use."
Lisa Rubin [09:34]: "They want to take every copyrighted work in the world and put it into their AI machines... they want to steal like China so they can compete against China."
The conversation underscores the threat Big Tech poses to conservative media outlets by undermining advertising revenue through unauthorized content usage, potentially leading to the collapse of platforms like War Room due to loss of ad income.
The heart of the episode features an extensive interview with Mike Davis, who passionately describes the unrest within the Texas House. Despite Republicans holding a substantial majority, Democratic activists have taken control of key legislative processes, pushing a progressive agenda contrary to the electorate's preferences.
Mike Davis [36:00]: "The Texas government is not. And while Trump... is cutting government, slashing DEI, reducing, cutting agencies, the Texas House is doing the exact opposite."
Davis highlights several key issues:
Increased Government Spending: Contrary to Republican promises of reducing government size, Texas legislators are amplifying spending, especially on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) initiatives and corporate welfare.
Legislative Manipulation: Democratic control has led to the proliferation of bills that expand government oversight, including a controversial $2.5 billion proposal to support "liberal Hollywood."
Suppression of Conservative Voices: Conservative legislators like Davis are systematically silenced, with instances of microphones being cut off when opposing liberal bills.
Mike Davis [34:09]: "We have passed school choice. But... the school choice program we just passed, that everyone's calling universal, it's not going to apply to 99% of Texas families."
Davis frames the situation as one of "voter betrayal," where the mandate given by Texas voters to Republicans is being undermined by a "uniparty" establishment that prioritizes progressive policies over constituent interests.
The episode also addresses the broader struggle between conservative media and Big Tech’s dominance. Eric Bolling and Lisa Rubin discuss the challenges faced by platforms like War Room in maintaining financial stability amidst Big Tech’s exploitation of content for AI training without fair compensation.
Eric Bolling [14:03]: "The tech Bros don't care about that. They just want to go in there like barbarians and just get it for free."
Rubin reinforces the importance of protecting intellectual property to sustain creative industries, warning that unchecked Big Tech practices could lead to a significant decline in original content production by conservatives.
Towards the episode's conclusion, Mike Davis urges listeners to actively engage in addressing the corruption within the Texas House. He emphasizes the necessity of grassroots efforts to hold legislators accountable and preserve conservative values.
Mike Davis [43:30]: "At Brian E. Harrison. Go to X at Brian E. Harrison. Like it? Share it. Tell your friends because I'm doing more on that X feed, Ryan E. Harrison than the entire Texas media has done in the last decade."
Davis stresses that only through transparency and direct communication can the conservative base counteract the entrenched progressive agenda within Texas politics.
Episode 4480 of Bannon’s War Room presents a fervent critique of the current dynamics within the Texas House, highlighting the dissonance between Republican legislators and their MAGA-supporting constituents. Through incisive discussions on economic uncertainty, legal challenges, and Big Tech's influence, the episode calls for heightened awareness and proactive measures to safeguard conservative principles both at the state and national levels.
Stephen Miller [01:03]: "What he's sending the business community is uncertainty. And if there's one thing the business community can't deal with, it's uncertainty."
Mike Davis [36:00]: "The Texas government is not. And while Trump... is cutting government, slashing DEI, reducing, cutting agencies, the Texas House is doing the exact opposite."
Lisa Rubin [09:34]: "They want to take every copyrighted work in the world and put it into their AI machines... they want to steal like China so they can compete against China."
Mike Davis [34:09]: "We have passed school choice. But... the school choice program we just passed, that everyone's calling universal, it's not going to apply to 99% of Texas families."
Eric Bolling [14:03]: "The tech Bros don't care about that. They just want to go in there like barbarians and just get it for free."
This summary aims to encapsulate the essence of the episode, providing listeners with a comprehensive understanding of the key discussions and takeaways.
