Donald Trump
Attack in Boulder, Colorado has underscored the extreme dangers posed to our country by the entry of foreign nationals who are not properly vetted, as well as those who come here as temporary visitors and overstay their visas. We don't want them. In the 21st century, we've seen one terror attack after another carried out by foreign visa overstayers from dangerous places all over the world. And thanks to Biden's open door policies, today there are millions and millions of these illegals who should not be in our country. In my first term, my powerful travel restrictions were one of our most successful policies and they were a key part of preventing major foreign terror attacks on American soil. We will not let what happened in Europe happen to America. That's why on my first day back in office, I directed the Secretary of State to perform a security review of high risk regions and make recommendations for where restrictions should be imposed. Among the national security threats their analysis considered are the large scale presence of terrorists, failure to cooperate on visa security, inability to verify travelers identities, inadequate record keeping of criminal histories, and persistently high rates of illegal visa overstays and other things. Very simply, we cannot have open migration from any country where we cannot safely and reliably vet and screen those who seek to enter the United States. That is why today I am signing a new executive order placing travel restrictions on countries including Yemen, Somalia, Haiti, Libya and numerous others. The strength of the restrictions we're applying depends on the severity of the threat posed. The list is subject to revision based on whether material improvements are made. And likewise, new countries can be added as threats emerge around the world. But we will not allow people to enter our country who wish to do us harm. And nothing will stop us from keeping America safe. Thank you very much.

This is contributing to inflation. Like if you need your roof fixed or you need landscaping done, or you need some other kind of services, we're shrinking or picked or dishes washed. I mean, the number of times I hear from people who are citizens, Latinos in our community, who, who will say, I know so many people who are afraid to go outside. I mean, people aren't going to restaurants to spend money. They're not taking their families out on the weekend to go have a good time. Because there is a real feeling out there, and it's based in reality that there's a kind of terror campaign that's about sort of programming for social media and for Trump friendly television that isn't driven by any particular policy objective other than giving the base what it wants, which is, you know, visions of self deportations because of the actual deportations.
Political Analyst
Yeah, we had been hearing this is going to happen. This is the proclamation that we just got from the White House with President Trump saying essentially that part of why this is happening is they were looking at the vetting processes that these countries have in order for people to come in and enter the United States. They don't believe that they are sufficient enough. So tonight he is signing this proclamation banning entry into the United States from 12 countries fully. He's restricting it from several others and basically cites those vetting processes as part of the reason here, Anderson. And also saying that it is underscored emphasized by what happened in Boulder, Colorado and that attack by the Egyptian national suspect on Sunday there and the president in several points, as I was just reading through this, saying that certain countries have people who are more likely to overstay their visas if they come from a certain country to the United States. Often we know, we see that and people come in to apply for asylum. So the president is taking this step, restricting this travel. It remains to be seen what the impact of this looks like as we're hearing from the White House. And one line, Anderson, that I should point out from this proclamation is it says, says it does include exceptions for lawful permanent residents, existing visa holders, certain visa categories and individuals whose entry serves US national interests. So there do appear, appear to be some carve outs here. It remains to be seen what that actually looks like, though, because of course, everyone will hear this and remember the travel ban from President Trump's first term that he enacted within days of taking office and caused quite a bit of chaos at airports and ports of entry.
Immigration Expert
The issue is that they're going after the easy for folks, right? The people who are showing up, people who are going to work to people who know, they know where they are.
Donald Trump
But why would we want those people to leave?
Anderson Cooper
They're doing jobs if we want to.
Immigration Expert
Not only do we not and not only do we not, but polling shows that Americans don't want that, that Americans, yes, Americans agree. If you were committed to violent felony, yeah, you can go right, like there's broad consensus on that. But if you are someone who's lived here, who has a family here, who have kids that are citizens here, Americans don't agree that those people should be deported. But part of what the administration is doing too, and this is an important point, and Tom Holman has actually said this, the borders are said this pretty explicitly, is they are also doing these raids in a splashy way, coming in hot with big guns because they want to show sanctuary cities. This is what you get if you don't work with us. We're going to irritate your citizens. We're going to scare the people that live in your communities because you're not working with us. And making it easy to go into jails and rip people out. Homan said that explicitly. That's what they're doing. So it's not only just to have good Fox News hits, it's also to show hey Chicago, hey New York City. We're doing it our way. And if you don't like it, tough.
Anderson Cooper
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Reasons I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's to going going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the big lie? MAGA MEDIA I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War Room here's your host, Stephen K. Band Foreign It's Thursday the 5th of June year overlord 2025 day and we are absolutely packed today. President's talked to XI already. They're getting ready to welcome the German chancellor Dave Bratz riding shotgun. We are wall to wall today. Let's go. We got the great Mike Lindell. Mike, the Daily Beast, I think is telling me that the judge has already reprimanded you for using your cell phone in the courtroom. Any truth of that rumor, sir?
Mike Lindell
100% a lie, Steve. I was right in front of the judge that I can't be text. I can't even use my phone. I can't even have it on in the courtroom. They put out that lie to try and attack but there are, there are restrictions since I'm also a witness. I'm representing my pillow who also remember it was attacked with lawfare four years ago, everybody. So they don't want me telling details of the case outside the courtroom where we have Lindell TV on site. And so that was a big lie that went out yesterday. But I'm here today. I just wanted to Steve, I wanted to come on and reach out to the war room policy for support. Remember, we are the only one we Want to set a precedence here of starting winning against this lawfare. They sued my pillow four and a half years ago and my employee owned company. And we decided we need help and the resources to win this. So what are we going to do? We're liquidating.

Anderson Cooper
Thank you, brother. Fight on. We need to win this one since we just lost one in. In Korea and we got to win this one. So thank you very much, Michael and Del C this afternoon.
Mike Lindell
Thank you.
Anderson Cooper
Dave Bradsworth. What is that thing you've got right there?
Dave Brat
What is iPad?
Anderson Cooper
Well, why is it white? This totally. I've never seen the.
Dave Brat
They ordered it for me. The infamous they.
Anderson Cooper
It looks like. It looks like something you order for a child. No, serious, like in third grade.
Dave Brat
It's got email, it's got. It's got a digital phone and WI fi. It's digital, I guess signal anywhere in the world.
Anderson Cooper
Dave. Brat in the house. How you doing, Dave? Good. Let's talk about. Okay, so folks, let's step back for a second. Pull the Camera back. The three big lines of work of President Trump, as we told you, to stop the kinetic part of the Third World War, which we're already in. The second is to seal the border and send in, deport 10 million illegal alien invaders. And the third is the whole financial thing. To redo the commercial relationships in the United States with the trade and tariff deals, then to get a budget we can live with and figure out how to finance it. Let's say this, on all three of them, President Trump is fully engaged and people are coming after him, whether it's the courts, the Russians, the Chinese Communist Party, you name it. Let's start with, first off, a bombshell. And look, having worked with Stephen Miller on the, on the travel ban in the first, in the first Trump administration, President Trump, they hit his tripwire, right? He's tired of this. Number one, he's already sent Miller over to DHS and say, look, Homan, you guys, and told Todd Bensman, we got a great picture of Todd Benson at the White House yesterday. I said, bensman, you've been there 72 hours. We're already shut down 12 nations, seven more. Keep doing whatever you're doing. Whatever you're doing, dude. He says, I can't take credit for that. But I said, hey, just there are no coincidences, okay? Shutting down 12 nations, right? And he's got another, another seven that are virtually shut down because Trump's just had a belly full of it. He says, look, we got enough problem in this country with the 13 million that came in on Biden's watch. Yeah, I've sealed the border. We still got a massive problem. He sent Miller over to DHS to talk to Homan and Kristi Noman said, look, we got to up it to 3,000 a day. It's got to be more than that. So President Trump says, hey, look, you're just not going to come across and think so. He's, he's hammering that and he's, he's telling people that this national security and people have to understand, look what happened. Look at the Ukraine's assault into, into Russia. You know, there's obviously tons of terrorists and tons of Chinese nationals and tons of other nefarious characters you see up at the University of Michigan. Have I been harping on. We got a clip from a young guy. Have I been harping on not just the Ivies, but the public Ivies. And I've said Ann Arbor, Michigan, and why some, some young guy today in Madison, Wisconsin. Some young guy. Yes. Talking about they take in $90 million a year from the Chinese Communist Party. Hell, they're bringing pathogens in.
Dave Brat
Yeah.
Anderson Cooper
So on this, President Trump has momentum, but he's upping the game on this. Yeah.
Dave Brat
And the, you know, I saw Charlie Kirk messaging on that, deporting 1 million per year.
Anderson Cooper
And if you. 3,000 a day.
Dave Brat
Yeah, 3,000 a day. And so that Mr. Ph.D. just, I'm.
Anderson Cooper
Just doing some math. I'm just doing.
Dave Brat
I'm not a man a year. That's Rain Man. I'm, I went to seminary. The, you got me off on that one. But the, but the budget savings there, just look, if, if a, a family comes in, two kids in a public school, how much is that a year? $40,000 of taxpayer money, state and local. And the one thing you left off the list that's got everyone's attention, yours this week is no wars. And just as a thought experiment, picture not having President Trump in office. Picture having Biden going along with these Euro guys.
Anderson Cooper
But this is my point about the genetic part of the third World War. And hey, he had to call with Xi today. The Chinese Communist Party understand, folks, because everything here now is smash mouth and hardball. Yeah. The Chinese Communist Party leaked before the call and I want to make sure the staff is looking for a readout. They leaked before the call. President Trump had called and wanted to call.
Dave Brat
Right, Right.
Anderson Cooper
So there they have right now, although their economy is getting crushed. As they said, hey, our guys will eat grass for three years. This is the whole thing we did on Tiananmen for the last couple of days. Great article out. I gotta figure out where it was saying that across the globe. You're saying what we said on the show. No remembrance of Tiananmen massacre at all. The Chinese Communist Party has done an amazing job of totally suppressing that. They're driving this, they're driving the Russians. President Trump is an article up in Axios. The President Trump goes, he's telling guys internally, White House, hey, was a badass move by Ukraine. Yes, sir. There's no doubt about just to number one. I don't know if we want that out there because Israelis in the idf, they're ready to go bad ass on the Persians right now. Right. We got to deal with that and say, hey, we can't have the forever wars because it's going to be expanded. We got it. Everybody's got to lay down their guns. Putin tells Trump on the call. The President, hey, I'm striking back hard. And as President said, this was a call that I don't think is leading to he was not leading to a peace deal.
Dave Brat
And I think and I think the strategy from the euro globalist is to get Trump to attack a European country because then the Article 5 then Article 5 kicks in.
Anderson Cooper
Well, this is why the German Germans are here today. 11:45 will be picking up. They arrive at 11:45 I think or 11:30, 11:30, 11:45 they're going to be in the Oval. There's going to be a bilat I'm sure during the Charlie Kirk show President will open up and have a couple three things to say. So we're waiting for that today. Short commercial break Bratz riding shotgun in the war room. America this July there is a global summit of BRICS nations. In Rio de Janeiro, the block 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 and in 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.

Yesterday he posted this call your senator, call your congressman. Bankrupting America is not okay. Kill the bill. And now Jason, there's this Wall Street Journal piece out right now that says Trump is losing patience with Elon Musk over this. So where does the relationship stand right now?
Jason Miller
Well I think that's one of the things just going to go to the fact that I never heard Elon Musk take this type of criticism toward the one big beautif bill back when the EV mandates and the EV tax credits were a part of the budget. And so it was only after all that was removed that we saw some of this criticism. I'm never going to go and judge someone for weighing in or voicing their opinion. If they want to try to improve the bill, if they want to try to improve the process, keep in mind, it's still going through the Senate right now. This thing is going to change. But when you come out and attack it like that and say you want to kill it, guess what? The only thing that you're pushing for is a $4.5 trillion tax increase. We need this bill so we can fully keep the border secure, so we can keep taxes low. Pass the no taxes on tip or overtime or Social Security, but we have to stop this $4.5 trillion tax hike which is coming. That's why I think the Elon Musk criticism is so insincere, because I never heard it before. So guess what? At this point, either you're part of the solution or you're part of the problem. And unfortunately, I think Elon Musk is making it clear where he is.
Anderson Cooper
Yeah, you know what? Jason Axios had a piece out yesterday saying that he's attacking the bill for other reasons not really tied to the bill. Like, apparently, he was deeply upset that Trump withdrew the nomination of the NASA administrator, and he wanted Starlink to be used for various other reasons. He wanted to stay in his government role longer than 130 days. Do you think that that's what's driving this criticism?
Jason Miller
Well, it sounds like a little bit of revisionist history to me, but here's the thing, is that President Trump is giving us the opportunity to keep taxes low. He's given us the opportunity to keep our border secure. And this is ultimately President Trump's party. The thing, though, is everyone's got to remember is that the president can't go and write literally his own budget and say he's just going to pass it by fiat. The Constitution says it has to go through Congress. That's the process. And guess What? You have 435 members of the House, 100 over in the Senate. They're going to go do their congressional Capitol Hill thing. So it's not, again, it's not the one big perfect bill. It's one big, beautiful bill. But we have to get this through, Otherwise, it's a $4.5 trillion trillion dollars tax hike. We got to support President Trump right now.
Anderson Cooper
Okay, When Jason Miller talks, assume that has been signed off by higher authority. Right. He's still official. He's the Outside official spokesman okay, so we've never been enthusiastic about the big beautiful bill. Number one, a big, a big beautiful bill is going to get done. It has to get done because you must extend the tax cuts for the working class and the middle class. All engines stop. There are also certain things on R and D as you sent me these, these things that weren't covered in 17 we got to take care of. There's a number of things of depreciation, things that have to be done for business, a bunch of things for small business, etc. That has to be done as a supply side tax cut and we do believe in the supply side tax cuts. However, as we've said from the beginning, the bill would be made better in the no need to kill it in the House and the president didn't want to kill the House is going to be made better in the Senate. Ron Johnson and a team of people. Ron Johnson has been and Ron Johnson fears no man right now because he ain't up for until what, 28 or beyond. And I'm not so sure Ron Johnson is going to run again. Yeah, because he's an entrepreneur. He's not a lawyer. He's been but just not Ron Johnson. It's many people. We're going to have Josh Hawley on here. But you've got a balance like this whole Medicaid thing, getting rid of Obamacare. You still got the working class. Now people have to show up. I don't like the fact it's only twice a year to me. Hell, it ought to be every month you got to show up. But the spending and we've been the first what Russ, the theory, the case and make sure folks understand this. The theory, the case is they wanted to make certain permanent things but they're only starting the fifth year. These are structural changes on mandatory spending and you realize how tough that is to do. They did not have the opportunity or the bandwidth to focus on some of the things in the short term and it looks like these things are spinning out of control. Also, the president made some comment about the debt ceiling. Ross Vote came back in and said we're not going to get rid of the debt ceiling because we can't get rid of the debt ceiling. It's a leverage point because President Trump, even though he's going to run in 28, may not be here forever. So we need the debt ceiling. Here's the problem with Elon. It's very simple. He promised a trillion dollars in cuts and waste, fraud and abuse and listen for all the Fanboys out there. I'm going to be. I'm going to treat you fanboys like little puppies. They're going to rub your nose in the mess you made. All this thing about the rescissions. When we do the first rescissions package, the 9.4 billion, there's not a line item in there. There's 11 line items including a ban for NPR and a Bay in for this has been fought. These are programmatic, right? Take your all fanboys, Elon fanboys, take your number two pencil out and write this down. Programmatic means it's a program that's been passed in an appropriations bill that's called a law. Okay? People have fought this. The audiences stayed up in the middle of the night in 2023 for the single subject bills saw Eli Crane and Matt Gates and MTG and Lauren Boebert and Andy Biggs all night long at 3 o' clock in the morning. And what were they arguing about? Everything that that first rescissions bill and who were they voted? Who outvoted them? The Republican party on the floor of the House. And you know this. They would sit there and make these incredible arguments. You had three, you had three podiums. One was the, was the rebels, mtg gates. The same people, the same 20 people up there all the time. Then you had one, the middle is. It was the rhino Republicans and you had the Democrats and the Democrats just sat there the whole time and then they said, no, we'll give the time to you. The Democrats gave their time to the Republican establishment who shot down everything that's on there. Everything. You know Sesame street in Arabic. All of this has been. That is not what Doge is supposed to do. He told the President of the United States over and over and over again, I got a trillion dollars of waste, fraud and abuse. What do I mean by that? I mean the three and a half minutes that the President of the United States on his advice took in the joint, you know, the state of the union or the joint thing to Congress. Remember the mantra of going through all the Social Security people that were 200 years old. Not one penny was ever found. Okay, where's the fraud in Medicaid which is right for fraud? Never came up with anything. Where's the fraud at the Pentagon which is the. The mack daddies of waste, fraud and abuse? Not one penny promised a trillion dollars. And that 170 at the end. Watch the cabinet meeting. That's Russ votes. Number Russ votes this early on says, yeah, it's 160 billion cut Elon repeats the same number. Russ, talk to us. He looks down, the table goes, is that on top of my number? Is that my number? The rescissions package, folks, is nothing but a bunch of outrageous things that ought to be done with. It's symbolic because we want to get to more. I keep asking the question, show me where you found the fraud. And by the way, who do we send over to the Justice Department? The answer is nothing. At the same time, what Jason Miller just said, he never said anything to the President or never said anything to Johnson or never put up on his Twitter, which he's putting up stuff 24 7. Not one thing when the bill is passed about spending. It's all been like my experience with him in 2017 team, all about the EV mandates. And this is a big number. It's $20 billion. It's not a small number. You don't think the Chinese would like to get a $20 billion bailout by the American people for some of these EV things? Dave Brat, I will turn the floor over to you, sir. And we got to cut spending. There's no doubt about that. And Ron Johnson, these guys are going to take a real shot at it. And the president I think is open at that. And last thing I'll say, the math does not work unless you don't extend the tax cuts for the wealthy. There's no chance the math works here. And Grover Norcross and all these people up here that are protecting the wealthy, the wealthy got enough money and they made enough money, they're gonna make more money. Okay. They're not hurting. Working class and middle class are hurting. They're gonna hurt a lot more of this doesn't pass. Dave Brat, the floor is yours.
Dave Brat
Yeah, well, there's so many ways to go on that, you know, this war was planned supposedly 18 months ago. Biden was in charge then.
Anderson Cooper
You mean, you mean the Ukraine?
Dave Brat
Yeah, the Ukraine war. Just to make that point. Obviously all of this comes to the feet of Congress.
Anderson Cooper
Russ, hang on, hang on. Before you go, you already. Okay. Any chance, any probability that in an 18 month planning cycle.
Dave Brat
Yeah.
Anderson Cooper
To. To strike array of bases that you need satellite thing to get take out their quarter of B52s. Any chance in your mind that the deep state, the CIA and DNI and even DIA had nothing to do with this?
Dave Brat
Yeah. Either way, heads roll. Right. If they knew, if they didn't know, their heads roll period. Right.
Anderson Cooper
It's just you're saying if they worked on it, they're gone, but if they didn't know about it.
Dave Brat
You're gone, too. It's just. It's obscene. But I just raised that point to raise the point that a year and a half ago, about. Precisely. Russ Vogt treated us to one point, $1.5 trillion cuts in one year, not over 10. That's. That's the White House OMB.
Anderson Cooper
I know.
Dave Brat
No woke, no weaponized line by line. Great Christian guy. Does this one.
Anderson Cooper
Biden was in office.
Dave Brat
Yeah.
Anderson Cooper
1.5 trillion.
Dave Brat
Does the work, goes through shows.
Anderson Cooper
Some folks blinked on that.
Dave Brat
So. Yeah. And so. Yeah. So then we get to all the blobules. I copied that from Mike Benz the other day on the war, right? The 100 people that sit in the Republican conference and vote for every war, and they won't put up a fight against the will of the American people, by the way, right? Trump ran on a strategy. And people need to track these people who do vote for Arabic, pbs. They need to be taken out of office. Right. Whoever is just mindlessly going along with these votes. And then that brings us to the real issue here. When you think about a firm, right, you think of what? What's the strategic vision? And then how do you fulfill that? When I went to Congress, I was stunned. Paul Ryan is the head, right? He's the CEO of the Congress. We had no strategy. And people think I'm being hyperbolic here, right, Dave. Just making up words that sound good. Whatever. Ask yourself, where do I find the strategy for the United States House of Representatives? And they don't have a straight where they have the sophisticated Excel spreadsheets and financial analysis. All has to do with getting reelected. That's where all the time is spent. That's the strategy. So how in the world do we have a strategy for our country if the U.S. house of Representatives, which does all the legislating, doesn't have it? Well, the answer is President Trump showed you the solution, right? And so he puts forward solutions and then he has to do all the Herculean lifting over high hurdles put in place by the House because of election politics. Because they and the Senate. I always leave out the Senate and the Democrats. All political views are my own. They're not even in the ball game. The Democrats have no strategy except to take down this country. But ask yourself that question. Ask your congressman or woman, where's the strategy in our vision statement for the United States of America? And if they don't have one, every small business has to have one in order to get a loan. Where is the strategy for the United States of America? Trump ran on three big planks that Steve pointed out earlier in the show. I won't go through them all again. And he won because he sold a package and he sold a strategy.
Anderson Cooper
Seal the border and deport the invaders. Stop the forever wars and get our, get our economy back rolling again and figure out, and figure out the financing of it. Those are the three big. Oh, by the way, we have a fourth one we're going to add. Take down the deep state. Yeah, we maybe want to get on top of that given what happened to Ukraine. Short break. Sam Sorbo, next. You've heard me talk about Patriot Mobile for a while now. You probably know that for years they've stood in the gap for every American who believes in faith, family and freedom. So here's the question. Have you switched to Patriot Mobile yet? You'll get exceptional nationwide coverage because unlike most cell phone service providers, Patriot Mobile utilizes all three major US Networks switch today without sacrificing quality or service. They even add two numbers on two networks on one phone. Let me repeat. They can even add two numbers on two networks on one phone. It's like you're carrying two phones in one. They have unlimited data plans, mobile hotspots, international roaming, Internet on the go devices and Internet backup. Switching is easy. Keep your number, keep your phone or upgrade. Their 100% US based team can activate you in minutes. Best of all, switching to Patriot Mobile supports your values. If you believe in our first Amendment and second amendment rights, the sanctity of life, supporting our veterans and first responders, this is where you belong right now. Go to patriot mobile.com bannon or call 972-patriot. Get a free month of service with promo code Bannon. So if you call in, tell them Bannon also Switch today. That's patriot mobile.com Bannon or call 972 Patriot. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Okay, we're gonna get back to the big beautiful bill for financing all this. People should understand there's, there's, it looks like cash right now. It's actually not or is not as chaotic as it looks. There are a ton of people working through different things. And remember, you can't cut taxes. You can't extend the tax cuts for the wealthy. The math just doesn't work. I think we know the math here better than anybody, right? Yeah, except Russ Vote and those guys.
Dave Brat
Although we argue about with Russia because.

There'S so many accounting tricks you can use. My thing is cash in, cash out, total receipts from tariffs. And this is why I keep Selling Navarro, this is why the Hill piece come up. Give the entire picture. Tell us what the tariffs are going to be. Tell us what the investment of the $2 trillion from corporations, not the sovereign wealth funds. What is that going to do to generate. Give us everything we get to back up the tax. Back up your. Back up your growth rate. If the growth rate's two and a half, the house has got 2.6%. If the administration talking 3%, that could possibly be. If you back it up and show us how you get there, those types of changes in a whole package refutes the CBO coming back. Because, look, reconciliation is a gimmick, right? Correct. We're going through the appropriations process right now, which I realize people, it sounds like you're putting too much on you, but the reconciliation is kind of a gimmick, right? It's a. It's not the budgeting process, not the budgeting process, not the appropriations process, which is a legal process. And this is my point. There was no heads up given to the president about anything. We're going to get back to the moment. A old friend, colleague, been around and just a warrior. Sam Sorbo joins us. And you're fighting now for an executive. Your cause is not just children in education, but it's also the parents, the brave parents that stood up during those dark years of the Biden regime. Walk us through. Sam. You've been in with Kelly Walker, and Kelly's doing a great job. You guys have been in D.C. for the last couple days. I've seen photos. You're at the, over at the White House. You're with the great Ed Martin over at doj. What are you guys working on? What are you looking for? Is this a law you want to get passed? Is it an executive order? Tell us what you're doing and we want to know how the audience can help. Ma' Am. Yeah.
Sam Sorbo
Well, to start, it's an executive order. We need acknowledgment that these parents were unduly targeted and harassed and damaged, actually damaged. Some of them lost their businesses, they lost their livelihoods. Kelly Walker himself is starting at. He's starting over, but he's not just starting over. He's starting at a deficit because he actually has an arrest on his record. And he was sentenced to 100 days in prison, which is absurd, for doing nothing, for simply being there to support a father who was defending the right of his child to not wear a mask. And there was no violence. There was no altercation of any kind. There was conversation, which According to our Constitution and our Bill of Rights, we support, we support conversation because if we don't support conversation, that turns to violence. Right. Diplomacy is the alternative to the violence that would ensue. And so Kelly Walker has endured tremendous hardship with five children. There are other parents who have also endured this kind of hardship, this kind of targeting by the doj. And incidentally, it goes farther than that. So the EO can only do so much. We would appreciate an eo. So at least these people get some acknowledgement for the hardship and they can at least claim that, you know, make a reasonable claim that they struggled, that they have been unfairly attacked. But also because the DOJ was a little sneaky, they down systemed the prosecution. And so the pardons have to come more on the local level or the state level. And that's not something that Trump can get involved with. But the EO would certainly set a tone. And of course, that's what I'm about because we need to defend parents. We need to get back to families in the United States. The reason that our children are not learning in school is because parent involvement is the, is the number one indicator for academic achievement. It is the primary indicator for academic achievement. So if you want the children to achieve academically, you need the parents involved. And our schools took a different approach and they said we don't want parents involved. We want parents to butt the heck out, which means that they're not interested in academic achievement for the child. And that's dangerous.
Anderson Cooper
Sam, give me that one again. I need everybody to hear this. When we do this clip. No matter what your socioeconomic are, no matter, you know, people say it's all about class and money, middle class, everything that even the working poor. The strongest indicator of children's achievement in school, regardless of their economic background, is parents direct involvement in their education. Is that correct?
Sam Sorbo
Yes, absolutely. And I'll add another one. Children who are home educated achieve better than children who are schooled and that is regardless of their parents level of education. Which is like shocker, right? Because you think you need to be really clever to teach kids. Apparently not so much. Kids learn automatically.
Dave Brat
Hey, Sam. Dave Bratt, Liberty University spent my whole life in education. I get really frustrated. You've spent your whole life fighting every politician. You know, some have had some success over the past couple years with the parents initiatives, Northern Virginia, but really we don't have leverage. How do we achieve that? Leverage to put the, the fear of God into our legislators so that they really care about, you know, there's shocking statistics of 12% literacy rates for third graders in Chicago. And they have politicians to say we love the kids, but it's not a sexy topic. How do we get this topic in the minds of our politicians to get it right? It's not more money. We're spending plenty of money. How do we make it happen? And where do people go to get you and Kevin?
Sam Sorbo
Yeah, well, you can find me@sorbo studios.com and you're right. I've been very passionate about this for a long time. But I used to be a school supporter. I put my child, my oldest in school and they were not doing a good job. How do we turn it around? We need more parental involvement. We need parents on school boards. And we really ought to go exclusively parents on school boards. We need the EO from the president, but also we need new policies. We need people speaking that family and parents are important into our culture and we need to elevate the family. Again. We have very bad lead indicators for the future. We have a very, not just the low birth rate right now, we have a low marriage rate. That means low families. That is very dangerous. And so we need to turn this around by either tax credits for children, for parents, obviously with school age children, things like that, that will encourage parents, encourage families and encourage that kind of unity. Because as we know, the family is the fabric of our culture.
Dave Brat
In 10 seconds, that's what we need. But how do you put the fear of God into our leaders, our elected officials to do it? They only do things when they think they're going to lose their seat. So how do we, as Steve says, they ain't going to give you the keys. How do we take the keys on this one?
Sam Sorbo
Well, okay, we need parents to band together. And parents, you know, unfortunately, the ball is in their court. The parents have to go to school board meetings. But the first thing that we have to do is turn around the attitude by the schools. And the way we do that is with a presidential EO and maybe some pardons coming down and maybe some restitution for these parents who have lost so much. And then we need to encourage parents to go to school board meetings and to get involved in their schools because there is so much going on in the schools. There's so much pornography in the schools that parents are completely unaware of. And it's inexcusable, frankly. Parents, you need to be involved in the education of your children. After all, you're the reason they're learning.
Anderson Cooper
Sam, one more time in the executive order, where does it go because the war room and of course the war room positive can help. Where do people go to help push this? Because we agree the executive order would get the ball rolling, Ed Martin would get involved, et cetera. So how do we get the executive order? Because that's easier than a piece of legislation. That's President Trump, you know, somebody getting in front of him and explaining it. So how do we do that?
Sam Sorbo
Well, I'll tell you what. If you go to realfreedomtalk.com you can leave comments. We are collecting comments and we are asking people for their stories because we, we want to represent as many parents as we possibly can for this eo. And so if you were unduly harmed by the draconian policies, either of your school board or of your community law enforcement, we would like to stand by you and we would like to get this done for you.
Anderson Cooper
Sam, do you have social media also? Where do people go for social media to. For you and Kevin if you get Kelly's. If not, we'll get Kelly back up the next couple of days. Where do people go on social media to follow you?
Sam Sorbo
Yeah, well, everything is@sorbo studios.com and I encourage people to sign up for our newsletter. That's the best way that we stay in touch with people. But of course, ksorbs is Kevin's Twitter highly recommended. It's very funny. Mine is maybe a little bit less funny, but it's Sam Sorbo. And also on Instagram, Sam underscore Sorbo.
Anderson Cooper
Ma' am, thank you so much. Appreciate you. Appreciate the fight. Thank you, Sam Sorbo. That is a warrior right there.
Dave Brat
She's great.
Anderson Cooper
Kelly Walker, also, Kelly Walker put in prison for 100 days for sticking up for his kids. That team is a great team over there. Japan announced today the lowest birth rates. This is a country that is demographically in a, in a free fall. They announced today the lowest birth rate in the history of the country. Since they've been keeping track of it only I think 7000-0087-0080-0000 in a country the size of Japan. New babies. This is one of the reasons. Also Cortez and I have been going back and forth the global bond market, the bonds, the 30s in 20s and 30s in Japan, they can't sell them the COVID like you want to have a depth so you get the price you want. The COVID on the bonds is almost nothing now. Why people are not dumb. These problems are inextricably linked. She just said late family formation in the lower birth rate here in the country is driven by one thing. Human nature hasn't changed. People's attraction to each other haven't changed. Look, I realize the schools are trying to form people to be freaks, but it hasn't changed. What's changed is that young people don't have economic opportunities. The gals sit there and go, hey, can this guy is going to have steady work, right? Is he going to have steady work? And the guys can't answer that because you don't know. With AI coming H1B visas, there's a war. If you're in the 35 and 40 years old and you're running around back in AOC, in the radical Muslim socialist, communist mayor of a guy running for New York. If you're buying that, all you're doing is crushing yourself, right?
Dave Brat
Yep.
Anderson Cooper
You got to stand up. This is why populism, economic nationalism, you know, this is why it's the only salvation. There ain't any other way out of here. Right. Unless you're going to go Luigi Mangione. And you get these young kids so frustrated and their head so twisted, they think they got to pick up a gun and blast away out here. Which I can tell you that ain't gonna work.
Dave Brat
Nope. It's all, it's all inextricably linked, as you say. And in the United States, guess when that trend started. I got a few charts at the end of the show, I might get to 1971.
Anderson Cooper
Wow. Something else happened in 1971.
Dave Brat
Federal Reserve off gold. And then that's the beginning of. I got 20 other charts of all the economic turmoil, debt, the end of family formation, child formation, success of the African American family, all of it. I got charts. 1971. So if you don't get your economics straight. People think economics and finance is boring. It might be, but it is the foundation. If you, if that's not stable and you don't have people making an income to buy a house and put your kids in a good school.
Anderson Cooper
This is why we try to do so much. This is why we try to do so much. So much capital markets here on, on, on War Room, by the way. So a couple things. Number one, the Chinese Communist Party, President Trump did have a call. We. Have we gotten a readout yet? I'm asking my. So there's no readout. There's supposed to be a call. The call was going to be at 10 o' clock. I heard it might have been earlier. Knowing that there's no readout means maybe not good news. If it was good news, you'd have put it out right away. Look, they think they run the deal right now and they ain't going to be, they're not going to be, you know, hey, we, you know, you Americans, yeah, we'll, we'll deal with you when we want to deal with you. Like they said, hey, they can, any, any country that a government would, would go into Tiananmen square and kill 40 or 50,000 people, not 10,000. Like I said, they killed 40 or 50,000 that day. Right. Gunned him down with the military and never got held accountable. In fact, got a partnership with the United States of America after that. Birch Gold.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. Okay, we have two tales of one phone call that's both out now. The Chinese. I'm gonna give you the Chinese. First, she says US should remove negative measures on China that would be terrorists and other things. She tells Trump China has implemented the Geneva agreement, which President Trump says they have not. She also says it's important to spell disruptions in China US Relations. He wants to be. He's not a decoupled guy. As you know, the worms. Decouple. Hardcore decouple. She says US should deal with Taiwan and I quote cautiously. So they're laying down the marker there now. The president has put up his readout. I'll read it to you in his entirety. I just concluded a very good phone call with President Xi of China discussing some of the intricacies of a recently made and agreed to trade deal. The call lasted approximately one and a half hours and resulted in a very positive conclusion for both countries. There should be no longer any questions respecting the complexity of rare earth products. That means the magnets and the ball bearings are somehow talked about. That's the big deal. The processing part. Our respective teams will be meeting shortly at a location to be determined. We were resumptive Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessant, Commerce Secretary Lutnick, United States Trade rep. Ambassador Greer. During the conversation, President Xi graciously invited the first lady and me to visit China and I reciprocated President Trump of the United States. As presidents of two great nations, this is something that we both look forward to doing. The conversation was focused almost entirely on trade. That's in capital letters. President Trump. Nothing was discussed concerning Russia, Ukraine or Iran, so no strategic discussions. We will inform the media as to scheduling and location of the soon to be meeting that is with the representatives. Thank you for your attention in this matter. President Trump, two interpretations, right?
Dave Brat
Yeah.
Anderson Cooper
Chinese not, not shy about putting out. Hey, he says we didn't go with what happened in Geneva with Besson. These guys, we're complying with all of it. Okay. The issues about the rare earth folks should understand that's a big deal, particularly these magnets and I think ball bearings, the processing of this. So somehow that's got in. There's some discussion, of course, no strategy.
Dave Brat
And you know, when you just put yourself in president's seat, right. When it comes to ball bearings and architecture, we have to reveal, because we're a transparent country and we're honest good people, our weaknesses up front because our people have a say in this government. And so we have to respond so they get leverage. Can you imagine the leverage we have on them that we don't know about? They're in a way worse position than we are. Right. And so this shows you the humanity of President Trump. He's thinking through this. Right. Strategically. But he's also got small business people in mind. Xi has no. He could care less about humanity. Right. If his people got to care less.
Anderson Cooper
About the Chinese people Right.
Dave Brat
If they get crushed for some years due to trade and whatever, we, we have total leverage over them.
Anderson Cooper
Okay? The rare earths are self owned. The rare earths are nothing but dirt. But the processing of rare earths and it's very messy. And this is why the environmentalists we. And essentially I think there was a company in Ohio and I don't know how CFIUS approved this, but years ago, I think 10 years ago, the Chinese thinking downrange, as they always do, the CCP purchased the, basically the processing and took it apart and shipped it to China. So the processing part, I think was in Ohio, was a company and they bought it for under a billion dollars. That company is one of the most strategic assets they have because this is where they get the magnets. And people should understand there are manufacturing companies, they're sitting there going, hey, unless I get these things, we may be shutting down two or three lines here.
Dave Brat
So. So you're in favor of long term strategic thinking and always brilliant points I was making.
Anderson Cooper
Always. You're, you're. But you sound like. No, stop, stop. I agree with that. I'm telling you, you're sound like a pilgrim. Ron Johnson will tell you, no, you were over that. Dude, you're a guy. Let me just reiterate for Dave Brett, but he's the only person in the history of this nation, of this republic that defeated a sitting majority leader in a primary and beat the guy by 10 points with a, with a 10 bucks. Right? With Julia Hahn, Laura Ingram and Breitbart. Right. You, he the only, the only guys that had your back in doing that when you went to Capitol Hill. They wouldn't let him go to the congressional room where you eat lunch, the lunchroom. They told him the first day he's got his tray and little Dave Bradley. No, they go, no soup, no sue for you. They throw him out. And then Dave Brad goes up, hey, everybody's getting committee assignments. How much money do I have to raise? I go, no, no, no, you don't have to raise any. You don't get a committee assignment. So you're sitting there telling me you're going to walk up and hey, let's get a strategic plan.
Dave Brat
Let's get a vision statement.
Anderson Cooper
Here's a vision statement. No maga. That's a vision.
Dave Brat
Yeah, well. And believe it or not, we actually had a vision statement on paper in Virginia. The Virginia Republican creed, which no one follows, Right? Balance the budget. You ever heard of that thing? I mean it's just, just unbelievable. And all Those guys, the 100 blobules. I'm talking about our conference.

In fact, the fight between Scott Besson and Elon Musk, it came from obviously the start when Elon pushed Lutnick over Bessant. However, the big fight was over irs. And Scott's saying look, we need every penny we can get because we got this thing called the deficit and the debt and Scott's trying to cut your taxes but whatever in the regulation he's got to collect. 800-958-1000.
